It's summer time. Over the next few months, there's no doubt that at some point you will run out of stuff to do. So, for your benefit, here are 27 things to do when you are bored this summer! You're welcome.

1. Write a short story.

2. Clean your room.

I mean, it's not interesting, but if you're bored enough...

3. Read a book.

Or five or six, depending on how bored you are.

4. Wash your car.

5. Or better yet, clean the inside of your car.

You know you need to.

6. Finally learn to cook a decent meal.

Not Ramen noodles, this is the big leagues.

7. Organize your closet.

8. Match all your socks up and get rid of the ones that don't have matches.

9. Watch your favorite movie.

10. Or, mute your favorite movie and recite all the lines yourself.

For me or anyone in my family, this would be "The Princess Bride."

11. Watch an entire series on Netflix.

I recommend How "I Met Your Mother," "New Girl," or "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt."

12. Train to run a race.

13. Organize your inbox.

We all know you have too many emails. Organize them into folders, delete your spam, and start fresh.

14. Make a scrapbook.

15. Write a letter to your grandmother.

She's probably worried about you.

16. Build a bonfire.

17. Call the fire department, your yard is on fire.

18. Have a movie night with your friends.

19. Color.

It's relaxing and you get to be artsy!

20. Go to IKEA and try not to get lost.

21. Go visit a nursing home.

You'd make someone's whole day!

22. Try birdwatching.

23. Lay down on your kitchen floor and pretend to be a crumb.

24. Look at the clouds and try to find shapes!

It may seem like something a kid would do (because it is), but it's still fun.

25. Try your hand at calligraphy.

Ha. Get it?

26. Google "baby animals" and click on Images. Trust me.

27. Tie-dye something.

There are kits at craft stores everywhere!


Have fun, and may you never be bored again. Happy Summer!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
