The DO's and DON'Ts of Summer

As with all aspects of life, there are do’s and do not’s. For example; taking a nap is 100 percent completely fine and I would actually recommend a siesta, but taking a nap instead of going to work is not recommended unless you are trying to get fired. So for summer time there are many do’s and do not’s that will make your life much easier and a little more enjoyable. So without further ado, let’s get this list going.


DO drink beer, it’s mostly water anyways.
DON’T drink and drive, seriously, that’s never okay. Take a cab.
DO eat Popsicles, all that sugar is great for keeping up energy.
DON’T forget to drink the melted Popsicle at the bottom, that’s the best part.
DO go to the beach, soak up those glorious sun rays.
DON’T get funky sun burn lines, peeling is no fun.
DO go to America themed parties, as many as you can.
DON’T be that guy at the parties, modesty is important.
DO wear sun screen, saggy leathery skin is gross.
DON’T use the spray sun screen, apparently it’s not good for you.
DO eat as much food as possible, whenever possible.
DON’T forget to work off that beer and BBQ gut.
DO listen to Jimmy Buffet and drink a piña colada.
DON’T watch Jaws, even today that movie will scare you.
DO hookup with someone, unless you already have a relationship, cheating ain’t cool.
DON’T sit inside all day, that’s what winter is for.
DO hang out with your friends and sweat your a$$ off in this heat.
DON’T shoot roman candles at each other, no matter how fun that sounds.
DO travel, see those places you’ve always wanted too but haven’t had the time.
DON’T work all summer, summer is here and gone before you know it.


There you have it folks, enjoying summer is easy. The hardest part is to come up with ideas to do in this heat without dying of heat stroke. Take my advice and have fun, but don’t be stupid. Because if you do not take my advice, don’t blame me, I warned you.

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.
