Its that time of the year again! March Madness is upon us.

This is that time of year when a select group of basketball playing college students dominate the court to try and become national champions.

As the tournament starts to dwindle into the 'Sweet 16', sports fans around the country huddle around television sets as if their lives depend on it.

By this time, some of you may have a great bracket and are set to win your challenge with your friends (WHOOP DEE FREAKIN DOO, good for you)...

...or you may be like the rest of the country and be extremely upset by the outcome of your bracket (I feel the pain deeply...trust me).

When filling out the bracket, I am sure you all felt the same way anyone filling out a bracket might have felt; proud and extremely confident in your choices for who was going to win what game.

But then something happened no one was expecting! (except a few who chose the upset...)

For example:

Can someone please explain to me how Yale beat Baylor?

Cmon' Purdue REALLY?! You REALLY lost to Little Rock??

I don't even want to get started on Michigan State... (that one sent my bracket down the toilet)

*cough* you suck Middle Tennessee *couch* *cough*

The anger and frustration created by this tournament has been a constant strain on anyone who's bracket has been busted.

Hang in there people because the pain will be over soon. I promise.

Look on the bright side, the weather is starting to get nice and there will always be next year's torment...I uh mean tournament...

And to anyone reading this who's bracket isn't broken and you're looking good in your tournament challenge, well I just have one message for you....

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.
