Being a student is hard, but it has its share of advantages. For example, student discounts! Are you getting the most out of your student status?

1. Mail

Students can receive discounts from FedEx. Now you can afford to mail your dirty laundry home.

2. Entertainment

Nothing to do on Friday night? AMC Theaters and Cinemark offer you discounts so you can see all the newest movies.

3. Digital Services

Amazon and Spotify make it easy to save money and enjoy the luxuries of two-day shipping and unlimited music.

7. Phone Services

Cell phones are important to college students, and phone companies realize this. Students can receive discounts on phones and services from AT&T, T-Mobile, and Sprint.

8. Restaurants

We all get tired of our school's dining hall. If you're going to grab some food off campus, you might as well get it for a discounted price! Go to Buffalo Wild Wings, Firehouse Subs, Dairy Queen or Sweet Tomatoes to save some money on your meal. Or go to Chipotle or Chick-Fil-A to get a free drink!

Insurance. It's necessary. Companies such as State Farm, Nationwide, Allstate, Geico, and Esurance offer discounted pricing to students with good grades, some even after graduation!

For those of us without vehicles, transportation can be a real struggle. Your city's public transportation may offer discounts to students. Also check out Greyhound for some great deals!

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.
