11 Ways You Can Ignore Finals Week Completely

Finals are here! And if you are anything like me, you are probably going to procrastinate until the night before you exam to study. So here are 11 things you can do with your time during study week.

1. Sleep It Off

Sleep is one of the best ways to ignore all of your responsibilities this week.

2. Shop, Shop, Shop

Retail Therapy is always a good way to destress- doctor's orders. Even if you don't need anything.

3. Watch Endless Hours of Netflix (or HBO Go).

My newest obsession is Vinyl. Start it now, finish it before that next exam, you won't be sorry.

4. Pack your dorm/apartment!

If you live on campus, you probably are moving out very soon. What better way to procrastinate then getting ready to go home?!

5. Get Sucked into the World of Youtube.

Start your day as a stressed college student, end it as a professional contour queen.

6. Exercise (maybe)

Maybe.. or not. For me, probably not. But it is a great way to release stress. Let me know if it works for you.

7. Treat Yourself

Get off campus and go get some quality food. You deserve it.

8. Return Your Books

Nothing feels better than the seven dollars you get back from the textbook you never used and originally bought for 200 bucks right?!

9. Consider where your life would be if you just dropped out now

I mean... we've all been there. Don't do it. Just silently day dream of sleeping in and never taking an exam again.

10. Rate Your Professors

Go online and rate your professors, honestly! Help out your fellow students and let them mentally prepare for the next semester.

11. Drink

Pour a glass of wine, and then another. You got almost got through the semester and you definitely deserve it.

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.
