20 MORE Things to Add to Your Summer Bucket List





due to the buzz with our original bucket list, we realized that we have a small 50 ideas. truthfully, busy summers might just get in the way of a lot. but we still had tons of ideas stirring. that's why we now are bringing you 20 more ideas! YESSS



Spend All Day in Your Swimsuit - there's absolutely nothing wrong with it

Water Balloons in the Pool - get the biggest balloons you can find

Make Soap - there's tons of online tutorials

Fill Water Guns with Paint - water colors supposedly work best

Make a Huge Backyard Game - probably not Monopoly

Run 5 Different Places - one of the best ways to see your city

Throw a Dart on a Map and Travel - use a local map

Phone Stacking Game - every time you eat out

Pretend it's Not Raining - carry on with your outdoor shenanigans

Buy a Homeless Person a Meal 

Fill Rubber Gloves with Water - proceed to have a water glove fight

Turn to a Random Page in a Recipe Book & Make It  

Make a Summer Memory Jar - open on the last day of summer

Capture a Sparkler Shot 

Make Up a New Pool Game

Drive Somewhere & Stop Wherever You Want - it's the journey, not the destination 

Try Something New - something that you've always wanted to have the guts for

Spend Time on Your Own - you don't have to always have your friends for an awesome summer. go on your own adventures, make memories for only you.

Set Some Personal Goals 

Live Summer to it's Fullest - it sounds so cliche, but really. remember how bad you craved summer. try not to live a dull moment. learn to relax. think about what actaully matters and pay attention to just that.

Summer Songs for Everyone


     
     ever get that feeling while you're laying on the beach tanning or looking at the waves (or both) and you just need that perfect song to fit the mood? Well, here are some of the songs that make us want to cry over summer. 

 just remember, we may have different music tastes then you so, this is simply our opinions. 

Reggae: sometimes you need some reggae to get you in beach-party mode. Bob Marley and Jack Johnson is where it's at. our favorites:

  •  Good People by Jack Johnson
  •  Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson
  •  Three Little Birds by Bob Marley
  •  Angel by Shaggy
  •  Jamming by Bob Marley


Pop: Ever hear those songs on the radio that were released during summer and then you think about what you were doing when those songs came out? Here are some of ours:

 • Drive By by Train
 • Whataya Want From Me by Adam Lambert
 • Good Feeling by Flo-Rida 
 • Need Your Love by Calvin Harris feat. Ellie Goulding
 • Good 4 It by Wallpaper.
 • Sleeping With A Friend by Neon Trees
 • Harlem by New Politics
 • Alone Together - Fall Out Boy
 • Keep Me Crazy - Chris Wallace

Here are some songs that are just plain good. 

 • Made In The USA by Demi Lovato
 • White Teeth Teens by Lorde
 • Hey Brother by Avicii
 • #SELFIE by The Chainsmokers
 • Some Nights by Fun
 • Can't Remember to Forget You by          Shakira feat. Rihanna 

Alternative: This is my favorite of the genres, but some of these you might not consider alternative music. So here is my favorite list:

 • Runaway by Matt Kearney
 • The Sound of Sunshine by Michael Franti & Spearhead
 • The Unknown by Althelte 
 • Factory by Band of Horses 
 • Best Day of My Life by American Author



Also a band that just writes awesome summer songs in general is Two Door Cinema Club. My favorite summer song of theirs is This Is the Life.
