5 Things To Thank Your Adventurous Friend For

Everyone has that one friend who's always DTF (down to frolic). You know, that person you can always count on to text at 3 a.m. to go to Taco Bell and they say they'll be at your door in 10 minutes. If you can't think of anyone you know like this, you're the adventurous friend. This post is dedicated to you and all of the other adventurous friends out there who keep life interesting for everyone.

1. Thank you for keeping me up to date with all the cool concerts/festivals happening In NC.

Without you, I would probably only go to one concert a year and I'd have enough money for gas, food, and other basic necessities, but why would I want that when I can jam out to the latest and greatest band to hit the east coast?

2. Thank you for going with me to Target when I'm bored.

I know you're not bored, that's why you're the adventurous friend, but you wouldn't dare pass up an opportunity to clean out the dollar section and drink a cherry Icee. I mean, who would?

3. Thank you for finding new places to hike and things to do outside.

I never realized how great the outdoors were until someone hung up an Eno next to a river and made me lay in it. There's nothing better than watching the sun set behind the mountains or over the ocean, especially with a great friend.

4. Thank you for exploring new cities with me.

Whether it's new parts of Greenville that we've never been to, or a city we've never been too at all, thank you for being down to possibly getting lost in the middle of nowhere or finding our new favorite coffee shop.

5. Thank you for the little "adventures."

By adventures, I mean me texting you at 12 a.m. to go to Walmart to get a bag of goldfish, and your saying, "Of course, I'll go!" Thanks for letting me pick you up to go to Walgreens for 15 minutes or PetCo. to look at the cats.

Thank your adventurous friend today, if you haven't already. These are the people that you need to keep around forever. Without these people, the world would be so boring and lazy. This one's for you, adventurous friend, thanks for making the world a little less awful.

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.
