1.) My family

One of the things I will miss the most about home is seeing my family everyday and although I have not even moved in yet, I am already excited to see them again.

2.) Home-cooked food

Although Endicott's dining hall has excellent food and many choices, I am going to miss my moms cooking from time to time.

3.) My dogs

I am going to miss my two best friends more than anything when I go off to school, they have been by my side for all of high school and I wish I could bring my pups to school with me :(

4.) My bed

Although I am planning on making my bed at school as comfy as possible, there is nothing like getting in my bed at home after a long day.

5.) Being a 10 minute car ride away from my best friends

Moving in last has made me miss my friends more than ever. As I see pictures of them starting their new life it makes me really miss being a 10 minute drive from them.

6.) Having my own bedroom

Although sharing a space with new people is all part of the experience, I will miss having my own personal space where I can go by myself and have all of my personal belongings.

7.) Not sharing a bathroom

This is definitely something I am going to miss a lot, having my own space for all of my cosmetics and belongings and being able to use the bathroom whenever I want will be missed.

8.) Access to my own car

Being able to have the freedom of driving my own car whenever I want is a blessing, and I look forward to being able to drive again when I come home for breaks.

9.) Free laundry

Not paying for laundry and being able to do laundry whenever I want will definitely be something I miss a lot, but I look forward to becoming more independent and doing it on my own.

10.) My local coffee shop

I will miss the ability to be able to drive down to my local coffee shop and grab a bagel or a smoothie (not a coffee drinker) whenever I feel like it.

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.

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.

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.
