Time seems to be passing at a rather alarming rate. Freshman move-in day feels like it happened roughly last week, and the fact that SENIOR YEAR is mere weeks away from ending is nauseating. As emotional, devastating, and downright tragic these next few months will be, there is one surefire to make it through with your squad by your side: a killer soundtrack. So as you sit in your final dorm/apartment/house, passing the wine bottle around, reminiscing on the past four years and the charmed lives you've all had, turn up the Bluetooth speaker and get ready to a) be on the verge of tears at any given moment (I know I will be) and b) wish you were a freshman again-- never thought I'd so those words again (desperate times, my friends). So without further ado, here is the official soundtrack that should accompany the final weeks of senior year:

1. What we Started (Don Diablo, Steve Aoki)

2. Shut Up And Dance (Walk the Moon)


3. Rather Be (Clean Bandit, Jess Glynn)


4. Home (Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros)

5. Wagon Wheel (Darius Rucker)

6. Heroes (We Could Be) [Alesso]

7. Mr. Brightside (The Killers)

8. Dragonflies and Waterfalls (Nova and the Experience)

9. Another Night On Mars (The Maine)

10. High (Young Rising Sons)

11. Everything is Alright (Motion City Soundtrack)

12. What's My Age Again? (blink-182)

13. Roses (The Chainsmokers)

14. How Far We've Come (Matchbox Twenty)

15. These Are My People (Rodney Atkins)

16. I Lived--Arty Remix (OneRepublic)

17. All My Friends (Snakeship, Tinashe, Chance the Rapper)

18. Odds Are (Barenaked Ladies)

19. All Night Longer (Sammy Adams)

20. Kids-- The Chainsmokers Remix (Mikky Ekko)

21. Shots-- Broiler Remix (Imagine Dragons)

22. The Middle (Jimmy Eat World)

23. This Is How We Roll (Florida Georgia Line)

24. Go Big Or Go Home (American Authors)


25. The Days (Avicii)

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.

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.
