15 Things I Wish I Would Have Done This Summer

Every summer it is the same thing. I have all these awesome plans of things I wanna do with my friends and family, but inevitably I always end up doing nothing that I planned to do. Don't try to deny it. I know I'm not the only one who is not heard from for days at a time, because you decided to binge watch a TV show on Netflix. So here are 15 things I wished I would have done this summer, than becoming emotional abused by the show that is Grey's Anatomy.

1. Gone to Blue Bayou Water Park.

I've lived in Louisiana all my life and I've never been. Don't judge.

2. Made homemade lemonade.

Since Beyonce' dropped her latest power album, I've had a taste for some lemonade. So I probably should have tried my hand at making some homemade.

3. Went Bowling.

I haven't been bowling since my 8th birthday party, which didn't go to well...

4. Had a picnic with a friend.

Fresh air probably would have done be good this summer.

5.Went to a music festival.

Coachella has always been my dream and there's tons of music festivals during the summer. I probably should have went to one instead staying in bed.

6. Had a house party.

I only have like a few friends. So it probably would have ended up like the movie "Project X." But hey its about the memories. *cue House Party by Sam Hunt*


7. Built a sand castle on the beach.

Going to the beach in general sounds like a good idea, why not build a sand castle while there?

8. Went out of the country.

A broke college student can dream, Am I Right?

9. Learned a new language.

The time spent crying over Grey's could have been time spent learning Italian.

10. Went to New York

I've always wanted to visit New York during the summer. I mean its....


11. Be a tourist in New Orleans.

I can never get enough of this city. The culture, food, and the people make it seem like I haven't seen what all the city has to offer.

12. Made homemade pop sickles or ice cream.

I'm a lover of pop sickles and ice cream. I probably would have saved a lot money by making it than constantly going to the store.

13. Read the stack of books in my room.

Its been sitting there since senior year of high school. I could have knocked it out this summer. I mean there's always next year.

14. Ate at a new restaurant.

I eat at the same restaurants while at home. Trying something new never hurt anybody.

15. Made a new friend.

I don't have many friends when I come home from school. So making a new one wouldn't have been all that bad.


Next summer I am vowing a change. I shall accomplish new, exciting, fun things! I believe that Summer 2017 will be my summer, I will make a change. If things so happen to not work out (strongly believe they won't) Netflix will always be there to welcome me home.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
