1. Movie Night


Having a movie night with your friends is always fun, especially when it involves dinner and a show. It's even better if you can all quote the movie lines.

2. Bonfire


An advantage to not being surrounded by concrete and buildings is being able to go out and have a bonfire with your friends. Whether you roast marshmallows or each other, it'll be a night of fun.

3. Thrift Store Shopping


Finding ugly clothes and then trying to convince your best friend they need it is always a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Aside from finding clothes that you will wonder why they were made, you might find a pretty sweet deal.

4. Star Gazing


One of the pros of not living in a city that's heavily populated by lights is that you don't have to go far to see the stars.

5. Ugly Shoe shopping


Going to the store and seeing some of the shoe ideas some people come up with is always a great way to make you feel better about yourself.

6. Walmart Scavenger Hunts


Going into Walmart or a different store that is available in your town is a great way to increase your skill of finding items.

7. Ultimate Frisbee at the park


Frisbee or a different game with your friends at the park is one place to hang out, especially when there aren't really any places to hang out at aside from a friend's house

8. Karaoke


What better way to entertain and bond with your friends than horribly singing your favorite songs?

9. Going on drives


Sometimes you just need to hop in a car and go for a drive either by yourself or with your friends.

10. Explore abandoned places


Almost every town has that building or place that has a story about it and why no one goes there. Why not got check it out?

11. Watch the river rise



If all else fails, go watch a river rise after the rain. Just be careful not to fall in and drown.

mistake
Project Eve

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
