Going Home: 5 Reasons Why I Love It
Architectural Digest

1) Food

I love the food from here! There is a pizzeria nearby that has THE BEST pizza ever! There is also a Bubble Tea shop that is a must-go-to! I love being home because I don't have these things near my school.

2) Location

It is so nice to be so close to the New York City! When I am down there, me and my friends MUST go into Manhattan. This time, we are heading to Black Tap for some milkshakes, and I can't wait! I have missed the city so much!

3) Friends

(More like my second family!)

I am so grateful that I get to come home from being away for so long and they still treat me the same. I am so glad that I am loved by the most amazing people ever. They mean so much to me and I am so glad I have them by my side.

4) Family

My family usually comes to visit me more often at school which is wonderful, but when I'm home, I get to see all of my family. I love being able to catch up with them. My nanny makes the best Fettuccine Alfredo and she is making that on Saturday. I also get to see all my cousins who make me so happy.

5) Jackson

MY DOG! I know this sounds silly, but being around my dog just makes me feel complete! I love how happy he gets when he sees me. He is the sweetest dog ever and I've missed him so much. He is nine years old and he is getting old causing most of his face is starting to turn white. But, he is the still the cutest dog. I always hate going back to school because he always has this look on his face like, "Where are my humans going?" and then when my family comes back home he is so confused because he doesn't see me.

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.
