I've been watching too much T.V. not to be writing this

5 Must-Watch Shows On Netflix

Since being in school, I have had a bunch of time taken out for schoolwork, but while I am not working or doing homework, I am watching the latest and greatest that Netflix has to offer. I am a fan of many different genres; I never just stick to watching the same thing over and over again. I very much like the cinematic differences between genres and being able to have access to all this imagination makes me believe that anything's possible.

1. The 100

I love this show so much. It came out my senior year of high school, but I didn't really get into it until last year. My mom was watching it and I am always fascinated by end of the world, dystopian type shows and after watching a part of it, I fell in love with the whole idea. The second season had me literally SHOOK.

2. Shameless

Okay, this is one of the best shows, period. You get to watch these kids and adults grow into these characters and it sometimes doesn't even feel like a show, but like watching the intense struggle of poverty in America outside of suburbia. Also, Lip is really hot, just thought I'd point that out.

3. Skins

I don't talk about this show as much as I should because let me tell you, not a lot of shows hit you as hard and as real as this one does. It is set in the UK with real teenagers and shows the harsh reality of drugs, alcohol, sex and relationships and how they affect these kids lives.

4. House of Cards

Now, this show I didn't get into for awhile, kinda being one of those shows I thought would just go nowhere after awhile. Boy, was I surprised. It is set with the President and his cabinet and what happens when bad people take office. It is satirical and so good to watch and you feel so bad watching it and loving it. That's a lot to take in, isn't it?

5. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

This show is almost too funny. OK, I kinda get annoyed by Kimmy sometimes but Titus saves it every time. He is half the reason I watch the show and I am not ashamed of mentioning that. A woman who was in a doomsday cult comes out and wants to explore the world in NYC. That pretty much is self-explanatory.

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.
