Now that summer is fully upon us, I thought it would be a great time to write about some things to do this summer. 

1 | Concert/Festival

2 | Beach or Lake Day

I won't lie, this is probably my favorite way to relax and have fun during the summer. Especially since I live super close to the lake. Even if you don't have access to a lake in a backyard I suggest you take a weekend for a beach getaway or check into a hotel for a night to take advantage of the swimming pool.

3 | Read 

Summer is also a great opportunity to pick up a book and read. I meant to post my personal summer reading list last week, but I was slightly distracted by move-in and various activities in college. Nevertheless, you can expect an updated list soon. I hope to spend my summer re-reading the Game of Thrones series!

4 | Clear out closets

Since most of us will have a bit more free time on our hands, summer is also a perfect time to slow down and declutter. I know we all love to leave cleaning for springtime, but I prefer cleaning up a little at a time. This summer, I plan to re-organize my bathroom drawers

5 | Get some refreshing zzz's

6 | Be More Present

7 | Reconnect with Old Friends

8 | Explore a New Place

Take a road trip

9 | Pick up a New hobby

and since I couldn't limit myself to 10, I had to include one bonus thing that I believe everyone should do this summer which is find a new TV show to binge watch this summer.

10 | Binge a New TV Show

While this may not be the healthiest thing to do over the summer months it sure can be a fun way to spend your time especially on the weekends. Need some suggestions? I actually just posted my Netflix suggestions which you can check out here.
