5 Things To Do Before Summer Ends
Steve Rotermund

School season is almost here again, with all of the studying, homework, and long nights that come with it. However, that doesn't mean that the summer is over just yet. This is a simple list of things you should do before you head back to school this fall.

1. Go out and try something new.

Even if that something new is maybe downloading a new app for your phone, anything is better than nothing. Adventure is out there, you just have to know where to look. I heard that Pokemon Go! was worth a try.

2. Get out of the house.

Maybe travel to the nearest city with a couple friends. It's no fun f you waste your summer cooped up inside the whole time. Sure it's hot, but that won't last. You know you'll be missing the summer heat come winter.

3. Treat yourself!

It's not very often that you can live stress free. I know from experience that having a job can take it out of you, even if it only is part time. However, sometimes you just gotta treat yourself to a special little something for doing something you might not have wanted to do. Positive reinforcement can really go a long way.

4. Do something crazy.

Are you sick of your job and need a new one? Have you asked out your crush yet? These are things that might be seen as risky but could definitely have amazing rewards if done right. Maybe you'll get the job you've been wanting, and your crush might actually feel the same about you. You won't know until you try it. The craziest ideas are the best ideas if you ask my opinion.

5. Have you done anything relating to your new years resolution this year?

I know I haven't. Maybe it's time to actually start doing what you promised yourself you'd start doing. It could become extremely good for you. Even if your resolution was to get yourself a job.

6. Go down memory lane for awhile.

Sometimes, that just means playing one of your favorite games from childhood. But chances are you'll feel better afterwords.

The summer is almost over, and honestly, it'd be a crying shame if you just wasted it. There are tons of things you can do that don't cost anything. Don't waste the last of the summer is all I'm saying.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
