13 Things That Will Make You Smile On a Bad Day

1. Babies/kids in your family

Most people like the youngsters in their family because they're so fun and adorable. How can you not smile because of them?

2. Babies/kids not in your family

Everyone loves kids. Well, most people. They always do the dumbest stuff, as if what they did is normal and no one was watching; however, said child is always in a public place where everyone is, in fact, watching.

3. Whataburger

I feel like this one is self-explanatory. Sorry if you're not from the South because Whataburger is God's gift to man.

4. Close friends

Yes, they come after Whataburger. I mean, come on; we have to have priorities. Hopefully, everyone would agree. If not, this list may not be for you.

5. Whataburger with close friends

Amen. I recommend going around Whataburger rush hours (between midnight and 2AM).

6. Baby animals

Especially puppies, because they're too hard to look at and NOT smile… unless it's hairless.

7. Your favorite song

Most people have that one song that makes them happy and want to jam out.

8. Old pictures/videos on your phone

This one is always fun. Yeah… fun is the right word, right? Maybe more like interesting. It usually goes from a range of pictures of notes to pictures of last night. One is usually kept longer than the other.

9. Kevin Hart

He's always on the rise and never disappoints. Maybe he'll share this and it'll start the biggest journalism/writing career that I've never dreamed of.

10. Reminiscing through all the good times

This one is always nice because you don't have to do anything. Just whip out your hammock, relax, and let the good memories flow.

11. A "How I Met Your Mother" marathon

This is one of the reasons for smiles and gained weight.

12. Watching the most popular Vines

Once you get into the loop of watching Vines, you won't be able to get out. It's like you're in a maze, and every dead end is a new, funnier Vine. Just be sure that you have plenty of free time.

13. Doing the things you love

This one is more personal but speaks for all of the things that make you happy. Make yourself happy before anyone else.

“For what's money without happiness; or hard times without the people you love" – J. Cole.

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.
