We've been waiting for this for 10 months, Summer is officially here. We can finally have vacations and do the activities we've been waiting to do. There are many great things to do this summer, but where do you start? Well, there are many activities to do like seeing animals, partying, fireworks, oh, and even 1,000-foot waterslides!

1. Attend a festival.

Wanna visit the zoo this summer, but also a festival? Well, now you can do both. On July 16, enjoy music and food while seeing Apes and many other animals at the Summer Ale Festival at Philadelphia zoo.

2. Go to the shore.

Working on getting a tan or just wanting to relax? Well, you can never go wrong with planning a day at the beach. Visit the boardwalks and maybe even pick up some fudge on the way.

3. Ice cream in NYC!

Going to be in New York City this summer? Do you love ice cream? Then you might just enjoy making your own ice cream right at your table at Cool Mess in NYC.

4. Parties.

Throw a tiki party this summer with your family and friends, have a barbecue, or pool party in your back yard.

5. Slide through the city.

Slide through the city of Philadelphia Aug. 6 on a 1,000-foot water slide! Cost: $10.

6. Free concerts.

Summer is a great time to see your favorite artists perform. There are several concerts this summer and even several down at the Jersey Shore.

7. Visit an exhibit.

This summer, take a chance to explore lighting with your favorite Disney character, Dory, at the Science Behind Pixar exhibit at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

8.Dolphin watching.

This summer, maybe even while going to the beach, plan a trip to interact with dolphins.

9. See a movie.

There are many movies hitting theaters this summer. Maybe try watching a film under the stars at a drive-through movie theater.

Attend the Philadelphia Fourth of July firework celebration.

11. Bonfires.

Bonfires aren't just for winter!

There are many activities to add to your summer bucket lists but instead of doing those activities as usual how about going into the city and experiencing them in a whole new interesting way.

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.

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.
