10 Reasons Why Having a December Birthday is the Worst

Without a doubt, having a December birthday is pretty horrible. If you have a birthday in the midst of the holiday season, I’m sure you understand the struggle. My entire life, I have been extremely envious of anyone with a nice May birthday or maybe June would have been more convenient. But no, December it is for me. December 26th to be exact, the day after Christmas, as if having a December birthday wasn't bad enough. So here’s to everyone else who has been forced upon having a December birthday.


1. When someone tries to tell you that your birthday isn't that bad

Until you experience having a December birthday, there is no room for your opinion.

2. When your friends and family try to wrap your gifts with CHRISTMAS wrapping paper

THIS IS MY BIRTHDAY. NOT CHRISTMAS. WRAP MY GIFTS ACCORDINGLY.

3. When your entire life is overshadowed by Christmas

Yes, this is one thing that even Jon Snow knows.

4. When everyone is away or has family obligations, so celebrating your birthday with friends is nearly impossible

Can we just start celebrating my half-birthday instead?

5. Even just thinking about my birthday being in the midst of the holiday season...

LOATHE ENTIRELY.

6. Your birthday is frequently forgotten about...

Christmas is more important than my birth. NO BIG DEAL.

7. People with summer birthdays just don't understand

What is so hard to understand?

8. Combined birthday/Christmas gifts

No explanation needed.

9. Let's not forget how EVERYONE has an opinion about your December birthday

"December is the best month for a birthday!" "Wow, December must be the worst month for your birthday!" THANKS FOR YOUR UNWANTED OPINION.

10. But you know what the REAL fuss is about in December

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL OF THE DECEMBER BABIES!!!

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
