5 Things on My Bucket List

1) Travel

Going around and experiencing different places across the globe is definitely towards the top of my bucket list. I want to travel to every state in the U.S., live in different continents for a month, learn new languages, try new food, etc. Hopefully, one day I will have the courage to just go for it and travel around the world for a year. I mean, how amazing does that sound?

2) See the Houston Rockets Win a Championship

It has been 21 years since the Rockets have won in the Finals. TWENTY-ONE. Now, this bucket list item has nothing to do with any of my own abilities (Lord knows I can barely run up the stairs without breaking a sweat), BUT I really, really, really want to see this happen in my lifetime so let's make it happen this year okay, Rockets??

3) Learn How to Dance

OKAY, going back to my inability to complete any sort of exercise, this one is probably going to be the hardest thing I will ever do... ever. When I say I can't dance... I actually mean I ABSOLUTELY CANNOT DANCE. Like, not even a little bit. Take my word for it but my body does not like to move rhythmically to any sort of beat. Yes, you should feel sorry for me.

4) Just Wander

I am daring myself RIGHT NOW (y'all are witnesses) to unplug myself and just walk around. Just wander around for a while and really take in life, nature, and a lot of other deep stuff. I think it'll end up being fun.

5) Understand Life

Honestly the toughest aspect of life itself is being able to understand why certain things are happening. But, although you may be confused and angry now, the important aspect to keep in mind throughout all of it is that everything happens for a reason. Everything. So, own whatever life throws at you, because you'll end up thanking yourself for it in the future.

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.
