5 Things To Thank Your Roommate For Right Now

It is easy to take your roommate for granted in college, but truly, these people are always there for you. Whether it was a beautiful mistake or planned, having a best friend for a roommate is the best, so make sure to take time and say thank you.

1. Thanks for letting me sometimes be messy

I know you're the cleanest person in the universe and don't like anything out to place. You push me to be cleaner, but you can tell when I haven't had the greatest day and let me be my messy self. I will try and pick up my clothes and occasionally vacuum if you let me have the messy day once in a while.

2. Thanks for letting me borrow your clothes, makeup, shoes, etc.

Your closet has become an extension of mine and without it, I would not look as put-together as I pass myself off as. Your stuff has been there for me in times of emergency or when I am tired of my own. Thank you for always letting me borrow your things because without them, I would most certainly be a trainwreck.

3. Thanks for late-night talks

I swear you know me better than myself sometimes and vice-versa. You let me vent for two hours about how I messed up and texted that guy when I shouldn't have and without those talks, I think I would go a little crazy. You keep me sane, even if it means talking until 5 A.M. and going to class with crazy dark circles under my eyes.

4. Thanks for keeping me grounded

Being in college can be tough sometimes, but you're always there to remind me why I am here. I know I can count on you to talk me down from a terrible exam, to a great night out, to pretty much anything else. You are there to remind me to have the utmost confidence when I need it and to stop being so cocky other times.

5. Thanks for being my best friend

I know I can always count on you when I have a rough day and need to watch Netflix, or when I need to have a great night out. You're my number one cheerleader and there to make the best memories while we are in college. Thanks for always making adventures with me and laughing so hard we pee our pants, I don't know what I would do without you.

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

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.
