9 Stages of Studying for Finals as told by F.R.I.E.N.D.S
Ross Geller

1. Getting back from Thanksgiving break and realizing you have less than 3 weeks to get your act together and study for finals

Break can be great and relaxing until you get back to school and release everything you ever learned has somehow escaped your brain.

2. When you actually sit down and finally start studying

How does one relearn 11 chapters of chem for a final?

3. Going to the library and seeing every person you've ever met and their roommate

It seems like every person at your school just learned where the library is, almost like when every one seems to learn where the gym is on January 2nd.

4. Trying to convince yourself you can do this whole finals thing

Pain is temporary, GPA is forever.

5. Everyday you wake up and have to accept the fact that you are one day closer to a final

Nothing like the week before finals going faster than any other week in the school year.

6. When you haven't eaten in days and see food

You're basically living off chips, mac n cheese and cup o noodles, oh and coffee.

7. When it's the day before the exam and you still feel like you don't know anything

Finals is also a mental game, don't psych yourself out.

8. Going into your final like

Even your favorite professor has become the enemy.

9. FINALLY BEING DONE FOR THE SEMESTER

You made it, go binge watch Netflix for the next month.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

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.

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.
