College is simply a roller coaster, each day filled with its ups and downs. One day, you feel invincible, having the time of your life while the next you're drowning in research papers and exams. All together, its one of the biggest thrill rides of our lives, filled with excitement, fear, anxiety, and joy. When it all becomes too much (as we feel it often does) here are some words to help you find your balance.

When you need support...

"I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With Him at my right hand, I will not be shaken." Psalm 16:8

"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you." Isaiah 43:2

When you feel overwhelmed...

"Cast all your anxiety on Him; because He cares." 1 Peter 5:7

"When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the rock that is higher than I am." Psalm 61:2

""Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." Matthew 11:28

When you need guidance...

"Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory." Psalm 73:23-24

When you feel anxious about the future...

"Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that will prevail." Proverbs 19:21

"For I know the plans I have for you" declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11

When you feel thankful...

"Praise the Lord! Oh give thanks to the Lord, for His steadfast love endures forever." Psalm 106:1

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance." James 1:2-3

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
