Halfway through the summer, I have spent a great amount of time following friends' updates, catching up the headlines, learning from the great knowledge and more. The more time I spent on the Internet, the more treasure I came upon. Here are 11 mind-blowing sites that can change your life!

Welcome to Charlene's Wonderland!

1. Wait But Why

Wait But Why is my favorite reading pastime. I strongly recommend you start from The Fermi Paradox and go join the interview with Iron Man Elon Musk. You will be amazed by grasping the deep questions such as Pick a life partner and Why procastinators procastinate. Challenge your mind and you will go far beyond.

2. TED Talks

Have a 20 minute break? Take a breeze and read great thinkers' minds. Be inspired by the story and spread your thoughts around the world. My favorite one is the 3 minute talk The Best Gift I have ever survived.

3. Spoken Words Poetry, Sarah Kay & Phil Kaye

Poetry spoke more than words. Watch When Love Arrives and fall for the charisma of love.
