7 Things To Do To Celebrate The End Of Summer

In This Article:

Although the season of summer is not over until September 22, Labor Day Weekend often serves as an unofficial ending to our summer festivities out in the sun.

Saying goodbye to late night campfires, trips to the beach, vacations and of course that summer tan can be hard. Especially if the end of summer means returning to school or a job, which means lots of long hours.

Although getting back to life and working hard at your goals is something to be excited for, it shows that Labor Day weekend should not only be a celebration of the end of summer but a celebration of all you have and will achieve.

In fact, Labor Day was created in 1884 to commemorate the dedication and work ethic of all the hard workers in America.

So as you go into the weekend, take time to celebrate big and relax with a few ideas:

1. Rent a cabin.

Get some friends and family together and get away from the stresses of everyday life.

2. Go to a festival.

The beginning of the fall season brings many fun festivals like Renaissance, wine tasting and especially picture perfect sunflowers.

3. Visit somewhere new.

If you haven't had the opportunity to go anywhere fun this summer, take this three-days and go! I would suggest a beautiful lighthouse as scenery.

4. Have a final beach.

This may be your last opportunity to make your friends jealous with your tan.

5. Music in the park.

It may not be Cardi B or Drake, but local artists have a certain something about them.

6. Visit a cute downtown.

These places thrive for summer visitors, plus they may even be having an end of year sale.

7. Go to a sporting event.

If you feel like life will cause you to miss out on games, go to one now! Nothing says fall, like jumping straight into football season.

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.
