Ossiana TepfenhartPublished 6 years ago in Lifehack5 Things I Learned Living by Myself at 17
Emancipation: The fact or process of being set free from legal, social, or political restrictions; liberation. Imagine this. You're 16-years-old in your room after having a heated argument with your parents. I can almost guarantee one of the first thoughts that came to your young mind was, “Man, I wish I could live by myself. I don’t need them.” Am I right? We always jumped to just wanting to move out. Well I’m hear to tell you, it isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.
Tessa WilbanksPublished 6 years ago in LifehackDaytrip: Saguaro National Park
Just outside of Tuscon, Arizona is the Saguaro National park. 143 square miles of natural desert with trails and drives allowing you to enjoy the park from the comfort of your own car. One of the many national parks in the United States Park system, Saguaro National Park is conveniently located outside of the bustling city of Tucson. The park is located on either side of the major metropolitan hub, complete with an airport. The Saguaro National Park and the surrounding desert (called the Sonoran Desert) is the only place in the world where you can find the Saguaro cactus, making it a truly unique place to visit. During the summer, there is very little wildlife during the day but if you visit around sunset you may see lizards, rabbits or even a deer (like we did). Like Joshua Tree National park, Saguaro National park is surprisingly green for a desert park and in springtime the wildflowers must be amazing. We arrived there in late summer, after the major blooms had faded, however, many of the cacti still had remaining blooms on their crowns.

In the marine insurance industry based at Lloyds of London there was a tradition that whenever there was a shipping disaster the ‘Lutine Bell’ would be rung to mark the event. The UK hospitality industry does not have a central forum like Lloyds but if it did and also had its own bell that bell’s clapper would be well and truly clapped out on Boxing Day after our Christmas lunch experience.

They cost a fortune, add points to your driving record, significantly raise your insurance, and garner you with a bad reputation whenever you find yourself behind the wheel of a car: speeding tickets. They must be the bane of all automotive infractions, and can become an absolute burden if not immediately taken care of, or if you don't know how to handle a car accident properly. Though they may not have the most sophisticated or complex diagnostics in gadgetry, radar systems have grown in popularity over the past few years.
DIY Backyard Projects That Are Easy to Do
How many of us have that one potted plant, two filthy lawn chairs, and a busted up firepit? I did, until I completely transformed my backyard into a cool place to have friends and family over. Backyards are meant to reflect nature and be creative with design, whether you have a small backyard or a larger one. You'll now want to have company over during the summer and whip up some barbecue on the grill.
