15 Ways To Wake Up Your Roommate
College Life

Have you ever had to wake up someone, such as your roommate, and miserably failed? This is a daily occurrence for college students, and I, for one, am running out of ways to wake up my roommate! Since other people are probably in the same position as me, I thought I'd write an article and share some new ideas. With that said, here are 15 ways to wake up your roommate!

1. Play loud angry screamo/metal music

The "Screamo/Metalcore" playlist on Spotify should do the trick!

2. "Accidentally" spill water on them

Just make sure you don't get water on their phone, laptop, iPod, etc.!

3. Keep poking them in different places

4. Turn the light on and/or open the curtains


5. Call friends over and be obnoxiously loud

The more people, the merrier, right?

6. Pull their leg and drag them out of bed

Just make sure they don't actually get hurt, because then you'll be in real trouble!

7. Tickle them!


8. Draw on their face with markers and/or makeup

I recommend not using permanent markers, but you do you!

9. Grab their comforter and don't give it back!


10. Call an RA and make them feel like they're in trouble

"RA, open up!"

11. Slam/kick/punch the door

You'll be surprised by how loud the sound actually is!

12. Throw their less important belongings out of the window

Or at least pretend to, so your roommate doesn't hate you forever.

13. Turn up the heat/air conditioning to an uncomfortable temperature


14. Find a megaphone & sing your heart out


15. Start eating all their food and drinking their drinks

If your roommate really loves food, they'll get up in no time!

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.
