The most fattening season is now behind us and the new year is the best opportunity to get a fresh start and recommit yourself to the gym. With the new year upon us, it is the perfect time: work out attire is on sale, gym memberships are at their cheapest, and you probably got the cutest new running shoes for Christmas. Working out is the easiest way to feel better about yourself and become a more confident version of who you are. However, when you are dying of exhaustion, there are some things that come to everyone’s mind at gym.

1. Do I have the go? Can I hide in the locker room?

2. Will anyone notice if I only do 25 sit ups instead of 30?


3. Where did that man find a shirt to fit his biceps?


4. How is that girl on the stair master not sweating?


5. Who even invented the stair master anyway?


6. Who put a mirror in front of the treadmill?

7. Has anyone ever died because of cardio? Would I be the first?

8. How have I been doing this for 15 minutes and only burned 100 calories?


9. How is a 10 pound weight so heavy?


10. Who decided planks are good for you?


11. Why am I sweating this much?


12. When can I leave?

13. What's for dinner?

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.
