Anyone who knows me well knows that shopping is one of my favorite activities. Don't get me wrong, I'm a broke college kid just like you... but I work hard for my money while being a full-time student, so I really don't see anything wrong with me spending my money on things that I want. Plus, I can also be found window shopping in between paychecks.

So basically shopping is actually my cardio! With that being said, there are definitely a lot of stores that can make or break a mall. Continue reading to find out more about what stores I love to find in the mall!

1. Free People

Okay, so obviously on a part-time salary shopping budget Free People is definitely considered luxurious... but I just love their clothes so much, and their store is always perfectly arranged!

2. H&M

H&M has super cute clothes at a somewhat reasonable budget! You can always find something to wear to work or even on the weekends here!

3. Bath and Body Works

This is my absolute favorite non-clothing store simply because I am obsessed with candles and currently have 20+ hidden in my closet!

4. Nike

I'm obsessed with Nike shoes and love having a stash of them in the closet!

5. Athleta

This is another luxurious store for me, but for someone who is obsessed with leggings as I am, this store is an absolute must-have!

6. Barnes and Noble

Obviously another non-clothing store, but the combination of amazing books and Starbucks makes anyone's shopping experience better! Plus, I recently Bought Khloe Kardashians book and I absolutely LOVE it!

7. Altar'd State

This store reminds me of a slightly more affordable Free People, which is obviously why I love it! They have the cutest clothes, jewelry, and some of the best smelling candles! Although their clothes are still a little bit more expensive than I'd ideally like to pay for, it's still a great store!

8. Forever 21

This has been one of my favorite places to shop since I was in high school, and they've definitely kept me coming back for years.

9. Loft

Since I am approaching graduation, I've slowly begun acquiring a collection of professional wear, and Loft is my favorite place to go for it! Plus, they also have a lounge collection which is super cozy.

10. Nordstrom Rack

Okay, so it isn't super common to find a Nordstrom Rack inside of a mall or even attached, but I have been in one and it's a great place to shop! Plus, you can even find discounted Free People items there!

So, on a scale of 1-10 where does your mall rank?

AI music threatens creativity

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.
