25 Things To Thank Your Roommate For

Whether you get assigned a random roommate or choose to live with someone you know, college rooming is always scary. You hope that the ideal "roomies turned best friends" scenario will happen to you. Regardless of whether this happens or not, it is obvious that roommates have a huge impact on your college years. They're the ones who see you at your best, your worst, your "hangriest", and your weirdest. Needless to say, we have a lot to thank our roommates for so here's just a small list of some of those things.

1. Thank you for making sure I didn't sleep through all five of my alarms in the morning.

2. Thank you for taking care of me when I was sick.

3. Thank you for getting past your first impression of me.

4. Thank you for forcing me to do my laundry.

5. Thank you for tagging me in endless videos on Facebook and Instagram.

6.Thank you for letting your closet be my closet too.

7. Thank you for not judging me when I didn't leave the room for a full day.

8. Thank you for listening to my endless rants about boys and life.

9. Thank you for always being down to snuggle and watch a movie.

10. Thank you for having dance parties with me on a weekly basis.

11. Thank you for forcing me to go out even when I really didn't want to (which was a lot).

12. Thank you for not letting the door slam when the windows are open.

13. Thank you for being (almost) as weird as me.

14. Thank you for making fun of our first conversation with me.

15. Thank you for being my cheerleader during midterms and finals.

16. Thank you for never letting me pig out alone.

17. Thank you for accepting my weird and random music choices.

18. Thank you for always singing with me.

19. Thank you for hating the gym as much as I do.

20. Thank you for knowing not to talk to me immediately after I wake up.

21. Thank you for decorating my room for my birthday.

22. Thank you for letting me send you ugly Snapchats and for sending ugly ones right back to me.

23. Thank you for appreciating naps as much as I do.

24. Thank you for making my year incredible.

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.
