I am someone who always plans to accomplish many things when summer comes around, but sadly life happens. With summer coming to an end, I have come to the realization that I have yet to do anything this summer except work and take a summer class. I know I am not alone, as most of my friends have also come to this realization.

There are so many things that I planned on doing this summer, but I haven't been able because of time and money. When telling other people about how all I've really done this summer is work and study, they typically respond with something along the lines of "welcome to the real world" or "this is what it's like to be an adult." The problem is, in my eyes I don't see myself as a full-blown adult quite yet. I've compiled a list of different things I have yet to do this summer, but plan on doing at least once before it's time to head back to school in the fall.

1. Go to the beach.

2. Go on a road trip.

3. Do a sunrise hike.

4. Go to the drive-ins.

5. Go to a bonfire.

6. Go to a fair.

7. Go camping

8. Read a book.

9. Go star-gazing.

10. Go mini golfing.

11. Make s'mores.

12. Go to a concert.

13. Pull an all nighter.

14. Go for a bike ride.

15. Go to a farmers' market.

16. Spend time with family.

17. Have a picnic.

18. Go to a new city.

19. Go to a baseball game.

20. Go night swimming.

21. Donate old clothes.

22. Go to a new coffee shop.

23. Binge watch a new Netflix series.

24. Spend time with my best friend from high school.

25. Tan in my backyard.

26. Go shopping.

27. Try new foods.

28. Go out for a night on the town.

29. Pick some flowers.

30. Do yard work.

31. Go to a water park.

32. Make a collage.

33. Eat breakfast in bed.

34. Go to a museum.

35. Go for a run in the rain.

36. Go for a sunrise run.

37. Collect seashells.

38. Take my dog for a hike.

39. Have a barbecue.

40. Eat an ice cream sundae.

41. Go kayaking.

42. Go to the Ben & Jerry's factory.

43. Go to New York City.

44. Run a 5k.

45. Run a 10k.

46. Go on a mini vacation.

47. Go swimming in a pool.

If you're like me and haven't had time to do some or any of these things yet, don't worry! There is still time to complete some or even all of these activities. Even though there are more things on this list than there are days left of summer, I still am going to attempt to do all of these.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
