13 Thoughts We All Have While Flying

Many of us are unfortunatly back from spring break and heading towards the end of the semester. As I was flying back to school from my vacation, it occured to me just how miserable flights can be. I'm sure many of us feel the same way and have had both good and bad travelling expereiences. Here are some thoughts I had on my flight that I think many of us can relate to.

1. Why haven't we taken off yet?

Why do planes never seem to take off at the time they are supposed to?

2. If anyone throws up, I will be pissed.

This is the one time where everyone will turn on you and hate you if you get sick.

3. Why don't they serve meals?

How am I supposed to last a six hour flight without a proper lunch?

4. Why is there no leg room here?

No one could possibly find this comfortable.

5. Is that child going to be crying the whole time?

It better not cause this is a long time to be trapped with a screaming baby.

6. Can I get WiFi?

Apparently, some planes have WiFi options which works out well for my social media addiction.

7. Why haven't they made planes go faster yet?

I think technology should be more advanced by now. Like, teleportation would really make this traveling experience better.

8. Do planes have horns?

I mean boats have horns, right?

9. There is no way to get comfortable .

Did the designer of this plane want to torture us?

10. Are we there yet?

This is taking forever.

11. I wonder what it's like to drive a plane.

How does a plane even work?

12. What if they lost my luggage?

Guess it's an excuse to buy all new things.

13. First class must be nice.

Damn those rich people.

But now it is time to end our spring break travels and get back to our regular classes and schedules.

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.
