5 Fun Things to Do This Summer

Summer is on its way fast which is so exciting! Here are some ideas of things you could do throughout the summer. Try doing as many as you can and come up with some of your own.

1. Challenge yourself to turn off your all electronics for an entire day.

I know that it may sound like a difficult thing to do but you will see the world from a whole new light if you do. Take the day or a couple hours to do fun things that you wouldn't do if you were on your phone all day. Try doing something outside. Don't forget that taking selfies is off limits unless it is not taken on your phone. ;)

2. Go on a road trip

Grab a few friends, take a few days off, and go somewhere. Near or far, it doesn't matter where you go as long as you are with people you love and having the time of your life. Don't forget the music which is super important and has to match you and your trip. So make it fun and upbeat to get you wherever you are going.

3. Challenge yourself, again! Take one picture, every hour for an entire day.

With Snapchat and Instagram, this is a chance to bother everyone you know with your not-so boring life. Make sure you post your pictures to your favorite social media sites.

4. Host a giant Summer party

Pull out all the stops. Go for the theme you have always wanted and make it better. Pinterest it up for the perfect party. Get the best food or make it a potluck and see what happens. Make it the party of the year.

5. Make a Bucket list

Make the longest bucket list in the world and try to get as much of it checked off in one summer a you can. Write things like draw on random sidewalks with chalk and leave encouraging notes on post its anywhere you go. Get the most you can out of every moment you have because it is so worth it.

Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.
