The 5 Things That Need To Be On Everyone's Bucket List This Summer

In This Article:

Finally, it's summertime! After this long midwest winter and nonexistent spring, everyone needed summer to come. Although summer is an amazing time of the year, it's also a time where everyone is busy working and being an adult. But, it's also a wonderful time to reflect and experience everything that you have always wanted to do but had no time to do during school.

1. Go camping with friends

What's better than going somewhere with your best friends? Now imagine sitting around the fire roasting marshmallows during one of those warm summer nights under the stars. Even if you go camping in your backyard, there is something about sleeping in a tent with all your friends that is such an amazing summer memory.

2. Stay up to ungodly hours playing board games

Almost everyone has a story of what they swear by was the longest game of monopoly ever. Well, its time create that story with your best friends. Take all the money, make deals, and take over the world. Be aware board games have been known to get very intense and ruin friendships.

3. Movie day

There are a billion movies in this world. Some you will love and some you will question why you ever thought that movie would be good. Take at least one day during the summer to watch every movie that you have wanted to watch but always said you have no time. Who knows you might even fall in love with a movie you never thought you would like.

4. Do something that makes you uncomfortable

A YouTube channel named "Yes Theory" swears that seeking discomfort is the best way to grow. So go try something that makes you want to jump out of your skin or something that you have been too nervous to try.

5. Find yourself

School sucks. It takes apart of us away every year. No matter what it takes this summer really find yourself and grow as a person. Reflect on the past year and become one with you again.

Reflect, celebrate, do something you have never done before, and do your self a favor and make a summer bucket list.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
