20 Things I'd Rather Do Than Take My Fitness Test
Melissa Tullar

August is here and that means school is right around the corner and for student athletes that means one thing; fitness test. The thing you’ve dreaded about all summer is creeping up on you. It’s not like you can't pass it, you have passed it before, and you will pass it again. It's just doing it and the fear of not passing that freaks you out. You pray and pray that your coaches will cancel it, but we all know they won’t so here are 20 things I’d rather do than take my fitness test.

1. Talk in front of a class

2. Cross a crosswalk blind folded

3. Wear the same outfit for a month

4. Swim with sharks

5. Puke in front of the cutest guy at school

6. Fail a midterm

7. Grow out my armpit hair and braid it

8. Brush my teeth and then drink orange juice

9. Watch 50 Shades of Grey with my parents

10. Never listen to music again

11. Listen to Hillary Clinton speak

12. Talk to my ex’s mother for 2 hours

13. Sit on a dirty gas stations toilet seat

14. Drink mayonnaise

15. Wear Crocs

16. Participate on Naked and Afraid

17. Roll around in cow poop

18. Apply to law school

19. Play Never Have I Ever with my family

20. Tell my coach I don’t want to take the fitness test

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.
