11 Reasons To Love The Wildwoods
Wildwood

If you've never been to the Wildwoods found in South New Jersey, you have no idea what you're missing.

1. The beaches: obviously this is probably the best part. With 5 miles of free beaches with plenty of waves and space, what is there not to love?!

2. Dolphins: whether you're relaxing on the beach or on a dolphin watch, you're sure to see either dolphin fins or even them playing in the water!

3. The boardwalk: a two and a half mile long boardwalk with shops, restaurants, and rides; there really is something for everyone. Watch the tramcar please.

4. Morey's Piers: with three piers with a variety of rides, there is a ride for everyone in the family no matter the age!

5. Plenty of sweets: the boardwalk is home to tons of different sweet shops for the classic candy, fudge, and of course salt water taffy. Personally my favorite is Douglass Fudge and Jame's Saltwater Taffy!

6. Biking: with plenty of places to rent bikes, biking is the perfect activity before the beach! Take a ride on the boardwalk or along the Wildwood Crest sidewalk.

7. Surfing: with sections on the beach specifically surfing, wavey waters, and surfboard rentals, the wildwoods are the perfect destination to surf!

8. Water parks: there's three different water parks with different slides for the whole family! From speed slides to multi person tube slides, there's a slide waiting for you!

9. Mini golf: wildwood recently added mini golf right off the boardwalk perfect for the entire family.

10. Doo-wop architecture: the Wildwoods are famous for their neon signs for their motels. Take a ride in Wildwood Crest at night to see!

11. Arcades: spend time with the family at one of the many arcades from skee-ball to crane games to video poker there's a game, tickets, and prizes waiting for you!

Take a trip to the wildwoods this summer to experience all the fun! You don't know what you're missing out on!

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.
