10 Things To Do In Springfield Missouri This Summer

I have lived in Springfield my entire life and trust me I get bored. If you are ever bored go through this list and you won't be anymore.

1. Firehouse pottery- This place is so fun. You pick whatever piece of pottery you want and paint it however you want and then they fire it and you pick it up in a week or 2.

2. Parks- You can do anything at parks. Eat a meal, walk, play sports, or any other games. Here are a few parks: Nathanial Greene, Phelps Grove, and Busiek State Park.

3. You can make your own team and play sports at different places as well. You could go to Coppers Tennis Complex, Chesterfield Family Center, or the YMCA.

4. Mini golf- One of the least expensive places is Fun Acre. There is also Glow Golf, Swing Right Golf, and Get Away Golf.

5. Wondering Of Wildlife- I have personally never been there but I have been wanting to go and I have heard it is really cool to see.

6. Zoo- The only zoo I know of is the Dickerson Park Zoo and I have been there many times.

7. Springfield Art Museum- This is a fun free place to go to.

8.1984- THis is an arcade in downtown Springfield that I have been to once and it was a lot of fun that time.

9. Fantastic Caverns- This is a cave that I went to every year for school when I was younger.

10. If you are looking to somewhere a little further away there is always Branson. You could do silver dollar city, white water, go carts, mini golf, shopping, etc.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
