10 Activities To Put On Your Summer Bucket List
Comfortable Club

Summer is quickly approaching. Are you looking for fresh activities to keep busy? Here's a list of things that you won't want to miss on your bucket list!

1. Camping.

Some people love being out in the wilderness, others hate it. No matter where you fall, camping (even in your back yard) is a staple summertime activity. If you want to make it a more Pinterest-esq experience, camp under the stars in the back of a pick-up truck with a mattress and tons of pillows!

2. Amusement Park.

Need a thrill this summer? Why not check out your local amusement park's roller coasters. If it has a water park too, that's so a plus!

3. Volunteer somewhere.

During the school year, we have so much less time to give back to the community. Now, it's the summer and you have tons of extra time. This is the perfect opportunity to find a cause you are passionate about and help out!

4. Go on a picnic in the park.

Make sandwiches, bring the blanket, and bring some refreshing drinks! Whether it's with a significant other, friends, or family, people underrate the fun of this old-fashioned fun!

5. Reconnect with an old friend.

As time goes by, we lose touch with people that we used to be so close with. Why not make an effort to reconnect and bring back a beautiful connection?

6. Garden.

Plant something! Whether it's a pot of flowers or tomatoes, it'll be fun to watch your plant grow. Also, making sure you water your little garden each day will give you some structure amidst your free time.

7. Have an arts n crafts day

Do you like scrap booking? Painting? Sculpting with clay? Set aside a day to embrace your creative side. If you need a little help to get started, go to your local crafts store and get a kit.

8. Ride on a bike trail

This is super relaxing and a great source of exercise. Find a park or a local camp site that has a trail and get pedaling!

9. Try a DIY food video that you've been eyeing

Save this one for a rainy day inside. You know you want to try one of those Tasty videos going around Facebook. There are tons of homemade recipes that you've been eager to try. What's stopping you?

10. Go through old clothes

Clean out your closet and get rid of all those clothes that you haven't touched in forever. It'll be refreshing and maybe some of it can be sold to consignment for some extra cash.

Make memories this summer that you won't forget! Don't forget to make the most of this time off!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
