I joined Odyssey over this past summer becasue Christian Barrington had direct messaged me on Instagram asking me to join. At first, I was hesitant, because I am not much of a writer but I decided to just go for it! Well, I am so glad I did! I became Editor-in-Chief for the SAU community.After a while of working with the team, I had a few come and go, but then we became strong as we opened our community up to more than just SAU students and graduate students but to all of Southern Arkansas. Us southerners have been keepin' it real ever since! The following are five reasons as to why I am so happy I took the jump and leap toward being an Editor-in-Chief for Southern Arkansas:

1. Odyssey is an outlet for all of your problems!

Seriously, though! It is like THERAPY! Having any issues with life? Just write it all out!

2. Being an EIC for a community makes you feel even closer to all of the creators!

I not only get to read everyone's submissions but I also get to know each one of them personally as we work through ideas for articles and also on deadlines. It is really a great opportunity and I love everyone so far.

3. The onboarding process is FUN!

Advertising and marketing are two of my favorite things to do with how social I am. Sometimes I end up saying the above quote to people LOL! We are always needing someone who is willing to submit weekly and is creative and diverse!

4. I am in an amazing EIC GroupMe where I meet new friends and stay in touch with them daily! Another therapy of mine because I can also vent my problems to them!

Like, who needs friends when you are in the EIC GroupMe?! LOL! just kidding! but forreal I have become very close with my Managing Editor and the group of editors I am in...We talk daily!

5. Why don't you join me! Comment and ask me how!

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.
