7 Places To Spend The Day In St. Louis That AREN'T The Arch Or The City Museum

Looking for a few places to go in St. Louis this summer? Well, I have the list for you. Instead of going to the same places like the City Museum, The Arch, or Forest Park again, try going to these places instead!

1. Cathedral Basilica

Whether you're religious or not, the architecture and atmosphere of the cathedral is absolutely stunning. The pictures really do not do them justice!

2. Turtle Park

This little park is great for people of all ages. It's quaint and located just across the highway from The St. Louis Zoo (Which is ranked 4th best zoo in the nation and is free btw)!

3. The Fountain on Locust

This place is definitely my favorite eatery in the St. Louis area. Not only does it have awesome food, but they serve incredible ice cream. My favorite thing to get there is their "Sundae Gambler," which is a random sundae that the bartender makes for you. You never know what you're going to get, but it always comes out tasting delicious! Not to mention, if you're in the mood, they also serve ice cream cocktails.

4. Washington Ave.

If you're looking to do some walking around, Washington Avenue is a great place to go. It has a bunch of great eateries, shopping areas, and pubs.

5. The Soulard Market

If you're looking to get a real taste of St. Louis, the Soulard Market is definitely the place to go. Filled with great food, great people, and great atmosphere, Soulard definitely brings in the vibes of StL.

6. Graffiti Wall

Filled with artwork from various artists, Graffiti Wall seems to stretch on for miles. Located right next to The Arch, you'll definitely have fun here finding great spots to take pictures and take in the artwork!

7. South Grand Boulevard

S. Grand is one of the many cultural hubs of StL. walking down the street you can find all kinds of ethnic food from Ethiopian, Argentinian, Mediterranean, Korean and many other different kinds of food. You'll have a hard time even deciding on where to go!

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.
