10 Thoughts That Go Through a 2017 Seniors Head During Winter Break
uoguelph.ca

1. Wow I missed my bed. You know where to find me.

2. Is this really my last winter break? I'm getting anxiety thinking about never having another one. When's the next time I'll have five weeks to myself to do nothing?

3. Maybe I should tell my boss it's winter break...maybe not. I mean I could use the extra hours and money but this is ME time.

4. This semester flew. They go by faster and faster. Seriously, where has the time gone and how did I make it this far? It feels like I started my freshman year two months ago. I can't possible be graduating THIS spring.

5. I'm broke...like really broke. I don't think I even have the money to buy myself gas let alone gifts for everyone. Merry Christmas, love your struggling student! *hands out business cards made in capstone*

6. It's so nice to be home but I know that my mom is going to wake me up by stomping down the hallway like Godzilla. Can't wait to hear her slam the dishes together while she acts like she's washing them too. Just my mom?

7. Why am I taking this online class? Because I need credits, that's why. Yay for GenEd requirements.

8. Maybe I'll find my partner outside of this campus. True love awaits me! LOL

9. I'm already post graduation depressed. RESTART BUTTON! What am I going to do without my friends right downstairs? Who is going to go get wings with me on every wing night in town? Can I just bring my friends with me? Do I have to do this?

10.Guess I should make some calls and apply for some adult jobs. Cue hours of google searches and pointless conversations with robot screenings.

Although I'm sure we're all excited for our futures, be aware that there will be countless mountains to climb and barriers to conquer. There's nothing you can't do if you put your mind to it! Work hard and remain humble. Here's to our last semester and real life. Let's do this 2017 Seniors.

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human Creativity

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

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human 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.
