17 Thoughts I Have When Going To The Mall

1. That neon yellow shirt looks really cute, but does it come in black?

2. I really like that shirt on the mannequin, so I ask the employee if I can try it on. *Attempts to try on shirt* "MOM GET IN THE DRESSING ROOM THIS SHIRT IS STUCK ON ME!"

3. How do people wear "boyfriend" cut jeans? Not only does this cut make me look shorter than I already am, but the name of the jeans really just ruins my shopping day. #single4ever

4. I should probably lose 10 more pounds before I even consider trying on this crop top...BUT maaaaaybe I will just try it on for my inspiration to lose weight.

5. Lady running around this store with a baby crying, children playing tag, children throwing hangers...PLEASE CONTROL THESE KIDS BEFORE I DO.

6. There is a romper that is calling my name, so I run to it like I am running to the finish line. I get to the rack and the only size they have is a small...

7. Why am I even here? I am a broke bitch with a salary of $150 a week, which includes my food, alcohol, and of course slurpees, chipotle, and late night munchies. I have zero dollars to shop 'til I drop.

8. I think I am just going to give up on trying on these clothes that I know wont fit me. Food court? Much better idea.

9. Shit, I have 7 items, but can only take in 6 to the dressing room.

10. I am either getting chubbier, or this zipper is broken... Lets just go with the zipper being broken.

11. *Sees sign that says "SALE," and runs up to the rack* Everything has either a hole or some questionable stain that is making me want to throw up. Oh wait, it looks like someone already has!

12. Why does this crop top cost more than that full length shirt...it's less material. WTF!

13. How do people even fit a leg into a size zero?

14. How many times is the sales lady going to ask me if I need any help? Like, HELLO! Sorry, nothing is fitting me right now, so just let me cry alone in the dressing room!

15. PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME JEAN SKIRTS ARE COMING BACK INTO STYLE.

16. The "Cheeky Shorts..." How come everyone else can wear them and look fine, but when I wear them I might as well be wearing a thong.

17. I should probably leave the mall now and go to the gym...JK. I'm getting a number 9 at Taco Bell!

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.
