They're there for you through thick and thin... and when you desperately need chicken nuggets.

5 Things We've All Said To Our College Friends

College has a way of bringing out the real you... and of course living with your classmates 24/7, they get to witness EVERYTHING. Here are a few things I know we have all said to our college friends one time or another!

1. I NEED COFFEE!

College means 8 am classes and lots of late nights thanks to all of the procrastinating you did during the day. Thus, caffeine is recommended -- no, caffeine is required -- for functionality!

2. I'm going to go take a nap...


Like coffee, naps are essential in every college kid's daily routine. Without naps, we would all be walking around like complete zombies (more than usual). We've all had those days when you just know you need a 20-minute nap before class... and then you sleep for the next 4 hours straight. That my friends is a good nap!

3. Ok, one episode and then I'll study.

Oh honey who are you kidding? No one only watches just one...

4. Want to get some food?

We all say that we are going to eat every meal in the dining hall, and eat as healthy as possible. Inevitably though, you arrive there and everything looks and tastes absolutely repulsive. Thus, you and your friends will leave within 5 minutes and pile into your car to head out on a McDonald's run. Goodbye healthy living, and hello french fries! :)

5. I love you guys <3

Yes college can be stressful and you will be sleep deprived and caffeinated most of the time, you will also meet lifelong friends. They study, eat junk food, nap alongside you, and support you in whatever you do. So go on that late night McDonald's run and cherish the friends that God has placed in your life!

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.
