Summer is here and that means hotter weather, longer days, vacations, and most importantly NO SCHOOL! Unfortunately, summer also brings thunderstorms and rain. Rain is not fun any time of the year, but especially during summer. Below are 10 things that you can do on a rainy summer day and still have fun or not be bored:

1. Make it a movie day! Rainy days are the perfect time to sit and binge watch your favorite series on Netflix or find a new series to get yourself hooked on!

2. Finally open that book you have been thinking about reading. Now is the perfect time to sit down and finally get to reading the book you have been wanting to read for so long, but kept putting it off!

3. Watch your favorite TV show. When it is nice out, nobody really wants to sit inside and watch their favorite daytime TV show. Since it is raining, now you can get an opportunity to stay inside and watch your favorite channel of shows!

4. Do chores. Nobody ever likes having to do chores, but take this time to catch up on any chores you have been putting off doing because it was too nice to be inside!

5. FaceTime friends from college. Chances are most of your friends you met in college don't live near you so stay inside and catch up with them over FaceTime! I am sure they are missing you just as much as you are missing them.

6. Take a nap. Actually nap all day! There is just something about rainy days that make everyone tired. Now is the perfect time to lay down and just sleep your day away!

7. Clean your room. As much as you don't want to clean your room, now would be a great time because you are stuck inside with nothing to do.

8. Take a bubble bath. I mean who doesn't love a bubble bath?! They are so relaxing and will make you feel less depressed about the rain outside!

9. Invent new recipes. Use some things you have in your cabinets or fridge and put together a new food to try!

10. Stay in your pajamas! There is no reason to get out of your pajamas on a dreary rainy summer day!

There are 10 things to do during a rainy summer day! Rain doesn't have to ruin summer days!

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.

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.
