17 Thoughts I Had The First Week Of School

I was not ready for school to start. Going to class daily and having a ton of reading for every single class is never fun, but on the bright side, I have an excuse to drink a lot of coffee (which I'm most likely addicted to) and I get to see all my friends so I guess it's okay.

1. Why did I choose to move 2,000 miles away? I hate long flights.

2. How the hell did me and one other person fill up a whole storage unit?

3. I've been on campus for 20 minutes and already tripped up the stairs.

4. FRIENDS!!! I've missed you all so much!


5. I'm tired but I'm with all my friends, so who needs sleep?

6. *Next Morning* Me. I needed sleep.

7. Who are all these faces I don't know? Transfers or freshman?

8. First day of classes and I'm already wanting to fall asleep.

9. Thank god for coffee otherwise I wouldn't be functioning.

10. I've already been told I need sleep and it's the beginning of the semester. That's great.

11. *Third day of classes* Why do I feel more exhausted now than during midterms?

12. Why did I stay up with my friend working the overnight the night before I worked one? I couldn't tell you.

13. I work tonight. I'm going to sleep before I go.

14. *15 minutes later* Why, Meredith Grey, why?

15. I've probably made about 89 poor life decisions already and it's only the first week.

16. Thank god it's finally Saturday. Maybe I can catch up on sleep.

17. Wait, who am kidding? I never catch up on sleep.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
