11 Thoughts Everyone Has During Finals Week

With finals week quickly approaching, you can't help but have these thoughts constantly running through your head. Believe me, we can all relate!

1. No.

Very self explanatory. No one wants to deal with taking all these tests!

2. When is the final for this class?

With so many classes, tests, projects, and papers, its virtually impossible to keep track of it all. you find yourself questioning if your test is during class, or during the designated finals week, you have no idea what time the test is, or if there even is a test in general!

3. Did we even learn this?

You finally find time to study and open your books to find complete gibberish. Did we even learn this in class? Was I asleep? Did I miss the whole semester? Honestly, who even knows.

4. I have no time.

Because professors leave all of the heavily weighed assignments until the last week of the semester, you find yourself cramming and non stop working just to meet deadlines. You also start questioning if you even ate that morning or when the last time you showered was.

5. Is this even English?

Staring at your textbook trying to memorize all of these terms and you wonder -- is this even English? Because everything I'm reading seems foreign!

6. Break time!

I wrote my heading so at least i got something done! Time to see what everyones doing on social media!

7. I'll do it later.

We've all put off a paper or studying until the last minute. Only during finals week, you feel the need to put everythingoff, and end up pulling an all-nighter in order to complete it.

8. Snack time!

Seriously, we're just desperate to stop working.

9. How did I even get into college?

After studying for hours and understanding nothing, you start to question how you even got accepted to college!

10. Am I ever going to need to know this?

Why am I wasting my time learning this when I still don't know how to balance a checkbook or "adult?"

11. Cs get degrees.

Sorry, Mom and Dad!

Remember, besides having all these thoughts running through your mind, and stressing out, try and stay positive! We're almost done!

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.

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.
