Ontario may not seem like it, but it's a very interesting place to visit. There are so many things to do here that I simply couldn't just narrow it down. Although, over this summer I visited my grandparents for a month and did some amazing things there. So, I decided to pick my top 6 favorite things and share them with you to experience on your own!

1. The Donkey Sanctuary Of Canada

Since 1992 this sanctuary has been providing lifelong homes to nearly 100 rescued donkeys. It is a non-profit charity that gets its money completely through donations. The sanctuary is 100 full acres of beautiful rolling hills and cozy barns. This is a once in a lifetime amazing experience with animals that you don't get to see every day, so please donate now to help the sanctuary provide a lifelong home for many more of these wonderful creatures.

2. Stratford Film Festival


Formed by Tom Patterson, the Stratford Festival is North America's largest classical repertory theatre company, they perform everything from Shakespeare to broadway musicals. These amazing productions are finished off on a beautiful apron stage, taking place in the building that has been designed to look exactly like the tent that was around the stage when Stratford Festival was first made in 1953.

3. Niagara Falls

One on the most world renown sites, the majestic Niagara Falls. Where three waterfalls become the international border of Ontario, Canada, and the state of New York. Watching the prepossessing falls as they continue to flow over the cliff is absolutely enchanting, definitely a once in a lifetime chance that you don't want to miss out on!

4. Rockwood Conservation Area

Full of cliffs, caves, glacial potholes, hiking trails, canoes and waterfalls are what make rock wood one of nature's most beloved playgrounds. This area is great grounds for camping and lovely scenery for weddings or other events.

5. Elora Gorge


Here you can grab an ice cream cone and walk right on over to one of Elora's many trails. While walking on one of the trails you are along side a 73 ft cliff overlooking calm or turbulent waters. Many of the trails do have rails, but you are allowed to go down to the water and kayak or tube through the waters. The gorge features many different accommodations such as camping grounds, splash pads, sport's fields, zip lining, etc.

6. Downtown Toronto


Home to 2.8 million people this artistic city is known very well worldwide. Toronto features many known attractions such a the CN Tower, Art Gallery Of Ontario, and Ripley's Aquarium of Canada. But what's really amazing about this city is all the cultural streets inside of it. Toronto has a China town, Kensington Market, Jamaican Town, etc. These streets have shops of clothing all the way to stores just for specific drinks and let me tell you, it is absolutely amazing.

Experience the different ambiances of this city here!

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
