Finals season always makes me so many things that by the time they are over, my emotions are all over the place. Here is a list of 10 things final exams had me anticipating- oops, I meant- "dreading." And who better to relay these feelings than the relatable Min Yoongi of BTS.

1. NOT FEELING THAT RELIEF THAT FINALS ARE OVER

'Cause everyone loves being stressed out and crying all the time, am I right!

2. NOT GETTING MY SLEEPING CYCLE BACK ON TRACK

Who cares that I was getting around 4 hours of sleep everyday and expected to function well enough for the final exams.

3. NOT EATING ACTUAL FOOD

Forget that healthy stuff, eating Oreos for dinner counts as a proper meal no?

4. NOT SLEEPING IN

5. NOT BEING ABLE TO STAY UP WITHOUT REGRETTING IT IN THE MORNING

6. NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THE FAM BACK AT HOME

Because finals consume your every thought to the point that you forget that there's a place called home that isn't your dorm!...or the couch of the third-floor library...

7. NOT BEING ABLE MEET UP WITH FRIENDS

Finals makes it so easy to avoid the people we actually like seeing.

8. CHRISTMAS

Forget that holiday, it's not like it's the one holiday we look forward to at the end of the year.

9. ROAD TRIPS

Stay in school daydreaming about all the places you're going to go to this upcoming holiday season versus actually going to all these places? Hmm, so hard to choose one option.

10. THE MALL

Really though…holiday shopping, no parking spaces, random strangers fighting you for the last chair at the food court…yeah, actually not looking forward to that [and I'm being non-sarcastic about that].

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.
