10 Fun Date Ideas For The Summer
blogspot.com

We have all been there before, when we are sitting with our significant other and trying to come up with some new and exciting date ideas. For whatever reason it may be, our mind blanks and we end up stuck doing the same thing we have done hundreds of times before. But nothing is worse than settling for the same date activity over and over again when there are numerous other fun things you two could be doing instead. This summer, spice things up and try some of these fun date ideas!

1. Drive-Ins

Drive-ins are one of the oldest date night ideas, but to this day they are still popular. With all of the new scary movies coming out this summer, The Purge and The Shallows, or even fun movies like Finding Dory and Bad Moms, drive-ins remain the perfect date night idea for this summer.

2. Mini Golf

Mini golf is always a fun date idea for the summer time, especially the glow-in-the-dark courses. One of the best parts about mini golf is that there is almost always ice cream nearby for afterwards.

3. Trip to the Beach

Going to the beach or a lake is definitely one of the more relaxing ideas for the summertime. Pack a few healthy snacks and a big towel to lay on while the two of you soak up the sun for the day.

4. Museums

Going to the museum can be a really fun date idea because it allows you to get to know one another on a deeper level. There are a variety of different types of museums to go to, including art, science, history, etc., so the two of you are bound to find something close by that is of interest to you.


5. Outdoor Concerts

Despite how rowdy some outdoor concerts can get, they can be a really fun date idea, especially when you are used to just having a "Netflix and chill" night. The best part about outdoor concerts is being able to relax and enjoy some good music.

6. Carnivals and Festivals

There is nothing not to like about carnival dates. You get to eat a bunch of fried food, convince your date to try to win you a cute stuffed animal, and check out the amazing views from the very top of the ferris wheel.

7. Hiking

Hiking can be a great idea for a date, especially one that involves great views at the top. Pack yourself a healthy lunch to eat once you make it to the top for an excuse to stay longer and appreciate the views.

8. Theme Parks and Water Parks

Theme parks and water parks can be a great idea for those hot summer days. With the wind cooling you down on the roller coasters and the water slides keeping you refreshed, this is always a great idea for some adventure and entertainment.

9. Mini Road Trip

It does not seem to matter where you are going when you go on a road trip, just as long as you have good company, and good music. But for an epic date idea, plan a road trip somewhere not too far away and spend the day enjoying each other's company on the ride there.

10. Camping

Camping can be a great idea if you pack all of the right equipment, s'mores, a bunch of blankets, and maybe even some fishing poles. It is also a relatively cheap date idea and can be a lot of fun if you choose to camp along the water.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself.
