7 Ways To Have A More Memorable Summer

Summer vacation is a time to have fun and experience new things, but sometimes, you run out of new things to do and being down the shore becomes the same experience.

You can get stuck in a monotonous cycle of the same setting week after week. By the end of your vacation you'll be wishing you had gone on more adventures and experienced new things with the people you love.

My friends and I decided to last minute go on a spontaneous hiking trip. It's things like that that can make your summer more fun and leave you with lifetime memories.

1. Be spontaneous

Last minute make a decision to go somewhere new. Don't plan, just do.


2. Have three Destinations and Blindly choose one

Have one person plug in the destination and guide you there. It'll be a surprise where you're going until you get there!

3. Find New Hiking Trails

There are so many places to hike, and believe me, you have NOT explored them all.

4. Have New Food Experiences

Make a date night with your friends and try new restaurants, the food and ambiance can be enough to make for a great experience.

5. Be Adventurous

Cliff jump, bungee jump, zip line. Try it all!

6. Make New Friends

Wherever you go, be friendly and open; you'll meet amazing people that you'll never forget along the way.

7. Leave Your Comfort Zone

If you spend too much time doing what you're comfortable with, then you'll never have any new experiences. Don't let discomfort hold you back from enjoying time with the people you love.

Enjoy your summer and try new things. You'll be thankful you did when you have stories to share at school.

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.
