5 Must-Visit Places In Dallas

1. Fair Park

This is a great place to go on a nice spring day or when the weather isn't too terrible in the summer. This park hosts events year round so anytime you want to go I'm sure there is some type of event going on. It's also where the State Fair is held (which is a Texan must) and just a part of history itself! Seriously if you just want to spend the day outside in some fresh air come here there is so many things to do

2. Perot Museum of Nature and Science

This place is seriously so cool. This is a great place to take the kids on a day off and they absolutely love it. Not only are they learning, but they have fun as well with all the hands on activities. I still have fun going and I'm 18 (still a kid though lol). This was one of my favorite places to go as a kid, and a museum in Dallas that you definitely want to experience.

3. Bishop Arts District

This is by far one of my favorite places to visit in the area. It's an historical part of Dallas that makes a perfect area to get some cute pictures with art all around. You can simply take a stroll, grab a bite to eat, or there is lots of shopping. If you're looking for a sweet bite I highly recommend Emporium Pies (seriously the best) and if you're looking for a lunch or dinner spot you can't go wrong with Dallas Grilled Cheese Company or Eno's Pizza Tavern.

4. Sablon Chocolate Lounge

Okay this one is a total foodie, but completely to die for. The craziest desserts and these are the ones that will satisfy any sweet tooth or craving. Seriously so good and worth the drive.

5. Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Gardens

This is one of the most beautiful places in Texas! You could spend hours upon hours here and still not see it all. It is 66 acres of flowers and plants. Personally I would say it's best to go in the fall or spring since it's outside and definitely too hot in the summer while not a ton of alive plants in the winter. I went in the fall and absolutely loved it because it was decorated with pumpkins, and a bunch of fall colors. This is a must!!

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.
