12 Things To Do When It Is Spring In Boston

There is nothing that screams springtime more than a low of ten degrees.

12 Things To Do When It Is Spring In Boston

Now that it is officially springtime in Boston, it is time to dust off the sundresses and patiently, or impatiently, wait for warmer temperatures to arrive. Whether you have lived in the northeast your whole life or come from an area with much warmer temperatures, these tips will be very helpful if you are confused about what to do about this change in seasons.

1. Buy a new pair of snow boots.

Just because the calendar says it is spring does not mean that it has stopped snowing! So, if you threw away your boots once the calendar reached March 20th, feel free to go out and get yourself a new pair!

2. While you are at it, but yourself a warmer jacket!

Is it spring? Sorry, I could not tell because this morning it was 18 degrees out.

3. Watch the snow from your window.

"Hey look at that, it's snowing again." "Are you kidding me?" - a conversation that actually happened today.

4. Longingly stare at your short-sleeved clothing.

Do not worry, one day you will be able to wear them but not today. Maybe try again in June?

5. Watch all of your Snapchat friends' spring break stories.


It must be nice to be spending the week in the Bahamas where it is sunny and 80 degrees every day.

6. Realize your spring break is long gone.

Wait, spring break was already three weeks ago?

7. Panic because you realize your spring break is long gone.


There really is nothing like realizing the semester ends in six weeks.

8. Constantly check the weather.

Check it in hopes of good news, but be prepared for disappointment.

9. Do some spring cleaning.

This will help you procrastinate on the mountain of work that is building up.

10. Buy new shoes you will not be able to wear yet.

The spring collection at Steve Madden was unaware that you would not be able to wear those suede, open-toed booties until the sidewalk wasn't a slushy mess and the temperature reached above 50 degrees.

11. Hope warmer weather comes soon.


Make sure to remind everyone that it is spring when they complain about how cold it is.

12. Ask yourself why you chose to go to a school in Boston.

"Why didn't I just go to school in Florida?" - everyone

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.

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.
