You take your last final and you think to yourself, "Oh my gosh, I'm officially on winter break?" Whether you have plans on exactly how you're spending the next however many weeks or you're planning on staying at home and watching Netflix, I can guarantee these thoughts have popped into your head.

1. How am I going to survive without my friends for four weeks?

2. How much clothing do I really need to bring back home?

3. What about shoes? Do I need all of my shoes?

4. I can't wait to sleep in my bed.

5. Oh, my God! I get to see my dogs.

6. I'm going to spend this break focusing on myself.

7. So do I like unpack all of my clothes now?

8. Or do I live out of bags for the next month?

9. Why do I feel like I'm on vacation in my own house?

10. I should probably join a gym while I'm home.

11. Wait, I can shower WITHOUT SHOES.

12. Have I been eating more here than at school?

13. No, that's impossible.

14. I should really start storing snacks under my bed here.

15. Wait. Did I forget that back at my dorm?

16. I 100% left that back in my dorm.

17. I miss my friends.

18. How many days till I go back to school?

19. Being home is weird.

20. Why does everything seem so different?

21. I have never been so bored.

22. Do you think I could finish this entire series in one day?

23. Oh, my God. I finished this entire series in one day.

24. Maybe I should get a hobby.

25. I am really going to get myself together for the second semester.

26. I miss my school.

27. Maybe I should stop sleeping till noon.

28. What's a normal amount of naps to take in a day?

29. Exactly how much money can I make over the next four weeks if I work every day?

30. I am so excited to go back to school.

If winter break has taught me anything, it's just how much I love my school and the people I've met at school. Being home lets you relax and recharge for the next semester and although being home with family and old friends is nice and very fun, I'm sure you're as eager as I am to head back to school!

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.

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.
