Europe is one of the most popular areas in the world to travel to, anytime of the year. The beautiful warm weather, bustling cities, and beautiful sites make it somewhere where every type of traveler dreams to go. While there are hundreds of amazing cities to visit, there are some that really are (in my opinion) the best summer destinations:

1. Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona is a perfect summer destination. The beautiful warm weather, amazing beaches, and beautiful sites, makes it somewhere that suits every type of traveler. If you are more laid back, Barcelona has pristine beaches where you can lay out all day getting the perfect tan. If you love a good adventure, the gothic quarter, sagrada familia, and Park Guell, are perfect for exploring.

2. Mallorca, Spain

Mallorca is one of the most beautiful places in Spain, especially in the summer. The weather is perfect, especially if you're looking for a place to relax on the beach or go on ocean excursions. Mallorca also has one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the world, and lots of cities and towns to adventure in.

3. Paris, France

Aubrey Hepburn said it, and it will remain true until the end of time: Paris is always a good idea. No matter what time of year you go, the city of light captures your heart, but during the summer there is just an extra magical feeling in the air. Form people sitting on the Seine eating french bread and drinking wine, to the beautiful mornings walking around the city, Paris is truly special in the summer.

4. Prague, Czech Republic

Out of all the places I have travelled, Prague is one of the most special. Prague is truly like a little fairytale land. It feels like you are in a Disney movie, in a city that is truly too beautiful to be real. Warm summer nights walking along the Charles Bridge, listening to the street musicians, and taking in the magical essence of the city, is unforgettable, and makes Prague a summer adventure you will remember forever.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.
