20 Thoughts I Have While Scrolling Through Pinterest

Ah, Pinterest. The black hole that sucks you in and never lets you go. You go on here to look up one thing and end up creating five new boards and pinning 150 new things you never knew your boards needed. It's a death trap, but it's truly a magical escape. It's like creating a life you've never had and you keep on pinning things just hoping one day that your Pinterest boards will come to life. As I endlessly scroll through my Pinterest feed wasting hours of my life, here are some things that run through my mind.

1. OK, I swear, I'm only going on here for 10 minutes this time...

2. Four hours later...

3. Why do all of these girls look so pretty?

4. Why doesn't my hair look like that when I braid it?

5. That eyeshadow is so sparkly, and I need to find out where to buy it right now.

6. I need to live in this mansion with the infinity pool and three glass fire pits.

7. I also need all of these puppies to complete my mansion.

8. All of these engagement rings look so pretty...I wonder which one would look good on my finger.

9. Spain looks incredible! And so does Thailand, England, Prague and Bali....

10. Ugh, why can't I pull off an outfit off like that?!

11. Omg, these shoes would look absolutely incredible on me.

12. This five-step recipe for barbecue grilled chicken looks delightful!

13. But I bet it's a recipe disguised as the worst tutorial ever.

14. Should I dye my hair? I am IN LOVE with this ombre trend.

15. All of these workout plans and cute boards with workout clothes on them make me feel bad for not going to the gym.

16. Then again, this recipe for how to bake mini apple pie scones looks even better than working out.

17. Should I start reading books again?

18. I wonder if I could ever be this trendy...

19. Or if I could ever get my nails to look that good...

20. I think I need one of these big fur coats like Beyoncé has.

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.
