10 Things I Wish I Had More Time To Do

24 hours in a day is not enough time to do everything I want to do, especially amidst the busy college life. Here are 10 things that I love and hope to be able to spend more time on in the future!

1. Read.

I absolutely love to read. From a young age, it’s been one of my favorite past times. Now that text books are replacing my reading selections of former Nicholas Sparks novels, I find myself reading novels less and less.

2. Scrapbook.

I like to think of myself as somewhat creative, and who doesn’t love a great scrapbook full of memories!? If I had all the time in the world, I would make multiple scrapbooks, because they are truly valuable.

3. Cook.

I really wish I had more time for this one. Busy schedules don’t leave much time to spend cooking yummy recipes. I miss the good old days as a little kid, cooking and baking all day with no care in the world.

4. Shop.

There never seems like a good time to go on a shopping trip. Living in a small college town sometimes makes me forget that there’s bigger and better malls out there. These days, shopping trips feel somewhat rushed, because there’s always one more homework project to do.

5. Craft.

Thank you Alpha Chi Omega for bringing out the inner crafter in me, and I wish I could devote more time to it! I find so much relaxation and peace when I craft, and I would love to spend hours on Pinterest and find fun new things to paint.

6. Blog.

I love to write, and blogging is a great way to write and keep in touch with people. If I had more time, I would definitely start one.

7. Travel.

There’s life outside Muncie? I wish I had more time to visit friends at other schools and explore new places. Hopefully that will come after graduation. Until then, Muncie is going to have to do.

8. Watch movies.

There’s plenty of people who can sit and watch Netflix all day, but I am not one of them. I constantly have to be doing something, or else I don’t feel productive. If I had more time, I would re-watch the entire Gossip Girl series and find a new Netflix series to start.

9. Spend time with friends.

I am a very extraverted person by nature, so I instinctively get my energy from being around others. I wish I had more time to spend with my best friends and also get to know new people.

10. Work out.

If I had unlimited time in a day, I would spend half of it at the gym. I love the good vibes at a gym, and the feeling I get after working out is priceless.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
