Unfortunately not everyone is lucky enough to spend their time this summer doing extravagant things, whether it's their bank account, parents, job or whatever other responsibility holding them back.

Buuuut this doesn't mean you can't have an exciting summer. Here's a list of must do, budget friendly things to do this summer.


1. Day trip

whether it's a lake, river, near by beach etc. go get your tan on and relax for the day!

2. Hiking

bonus if it's somewhere with a 'watering hole'

3. Watch the sunrise

I don't know the science behind it, but I'm pretty sure summer sunrises are the most magical

4. Watch the sunset

again, sunsets in the summer, AMAZING

5. Go star gazing

bonus if it's in the bed of a pick up with pillows and blankets!

6. Go to a drive in movie

cute with a S.O. or a group of friends!

7. Go to an aquarium, zoo, or museum

or all three

8. Have a bonfire

were talking s'mores and all

9. BRUNCH!

this one can be costly, but if it's bottomless it's worth it!

10. Rooftop bar

again, can be pricey but there's always happy hour!

11. Outdoor concert

a summer necessity in my book

12. BBQ

and you could always turn it into a beer olympics, just sayin'

13. Picnic

again, a cute date idea or fun with friends

14. Wiffle ball or Kick ball game

I really don't know why people stop playing these after a certain age, but I'm all for them making a come back in adulthood

15. Go to a baseball game

nothing says summer quite like baseball and a beer

16. Go to a fair

there's plenty around so there's bound to be one near by, and boardwalks are just as fun!

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

Brooke Davis

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens
