Have a breakfast party! Invite a group of your friends over and experiment with new breakfast recipes. This is a perfect way to bring people together and brainstorm other activities that may interest the group. Perhaps a morning bike ride or walk?

Watch an entire series (of your choice) on Netlflix (we recommend Pretty Little Liars, if you're looking for some ideas)! Make yourself some microwaveable popcorn, pick up some ice cream and call it a day! You could also invite some friends over to have a "Netflix day," once a week, to ensure you finish out each season.

Enjoy the articles in Seventeen Magazine! Bring the newest Seventeen magazine issue with you to your beach visit or curl up in your air conditioned room and enjoy the advise Seventeen has to offer! You could also join Seventeen magazine's book club!

If you're heading off to college this year, you can search for some great dorm DIY's! College is very expensive, so something as simple as what's pictured above would cost about $10.00 and look adorable hanging on your dorm wall. All you need is crayons, glue, a blow dryer and a canvas board. First glue the crayons to the board in any order you prefer then simply hold the blow dryer over the crayons until they start to melt. This simple project allows lots of room for you to add your own flavor and spice it up! If you still have a few more years until college,  this would be perfect for an "Art's and Crafts Day" with a group of your friends.
