Summer 2017 is officially here! Whether you're in middle school or a college graduate, you're always going to be looking for the picture-perfect place for seflies and Instagram-worthy pictures. With that, here are the seven best spots around the cities for any type of picture.

1. Minneapolis Wall Crawl

Pictured above, the "I Like You" wall, is one of the many, many murals across Minneapolis. Take an afternoon to go around the city and find as many murals as you can, and be sure to take the most beautiful pictures!

2. Guthrie Theater

Whether you're a theater nerd or not, the Guthrie Theater has something everyone will enjoy: the view. Take a step into the gorgeously yellow box on the outside of the theater to enjoy beautiful views of Minneapolis, while taking spectacular selfies.

3. Stone Arch Bridge

Stone Arch is one of the most breathtaking places around the cities to take a photo. Walk across the bridge to see Saint Anthony Falls, Mill Ruins Park, and Gold Medal Park--all great places for pictures! Stop by Izzy's Ice Cream for the most beautiful, Instagram-worthy shot of ice cream.

4. Witches Hat Water Tower

Now, here's where to get the best view of Minneapolis. Witches Hat Water Tower is an eerie, yet gorgeous place to see the whole city. Only a twenty-minute walk from the University of Minnesota, this is the perfect spot for students to take stunning pictures.

5. Black: Coffee and Waffle Bar

Instead of looking for the perfect selfie, though the Black Coffee and Waffle Bar mural is perfect for a picture with friends, the waffles and latte art are seriously picture-perfect (and they are mighty tasty!)

6. Como Park Zoo and Conservatory

One of the most aesthetically-pleasing parts of Como Zoo is the conservatory, which is home to thousands of colorfully stunning flowers and plants. Again, maybe the conservatory is not an ideal place for selfies, but it is beautiful for close-up flower photos.

7. Mickey's Diner

So, you're in the mood for some lunch and possibly looking to take some retro pictures? Well, you're in luck. Stop by Mickey's in St. Paul to get a delicious burger and shake while taking the cutest retro pics. Also, Mickey's is open 24 hours! That means, say, if you're really bored during ungodly hours of the night, it's time for a photoshoot.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
