No school, more me time.

1. Hike... a lot

I live in Colorado and for someone who has the mountains roughly 30 minutes away from them, I have only been on one hike in my entire life. This summer, I plan to hike a lot more than that because not only is it beautiful outside, but it is good for you.

2. Concerts

I decided about a month ago that I could lose my hearing tomorrow and I would regret not going to all the amazing concerts the summer has to offer. So my decisions are Justin Bieber at Sports Authority field, John Mayer, and a rave that I still haven't decided on yet. The rave I only really want to go to because of the cute outfits I can have with my friends.

3. Date whoever at any moment

Sometimes when a random guy in the mall asks you to sit down because you're pretty, you have to say yes. I mean, who could say no to a good pair of blue eyes?

4. Catch up with childhood friends

There are maybe only a handful of people I have stayed in contact with but the ones I have, need a little extra love. Summer is the perfect time for that. Maybe I will even throw in a hand written personal letter, too.

5. Binge a Netflix series

A friend of mine inspired me and it is one of those things I feel like you need to do once in your life.

6. Do a feel good photo shoot

A friend of mine convinced me to do this so I thought I would give it a shot. Who knows, it might be nice to get a picture of me without a bun in my hair.

7. De-clutter your life

For me, it is going through all of those prom and homecoming dresses from high school, time for real clothes.

8. Try something new.

Last year I conquered the water by wake boarding and this year I plan to conquer the land by long boarding.


9. Go somewhere new

My parents are strange and don't ever want to leave the country so I convinced them to plan a trip to a place where I have never been before. Texas, Louisiana, and Tennessee, here I come.

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?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

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.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
