5 Ways To Spend Spring Break
C. C. Hunter Books

Spring break is just around the corner, but the real question is how you're going to spend it! It can be hard trying to make plans and coordinate with other people, so here are some easy ways to spend your spring break.

1. Go home

For some people it's not easy getting home to see the family. Take this time to go home and relax if you feel like you need a break from school friends. Going home for spring break isn't as lame as it sounds and you’ll find that a lot of people end up doing it!

2. Go to Canada

Never been out of the country? Canada is a great place to start! Find a bus that can take you up to one of the big cities (Montreal/Toronto/Vancouver) and spend a couple days exploring a different culture! P.S. This trip is not for those who aren't good in cold weather, it's cold as hell in Canada this time of year.

3. Go to a beach

Take a getaway to one of the closest beaches near you. If you go to a school that's currently in a snowy season it might be nice to take a trip to more tropical weather.

4. Stay on campus

If you go to a school with a lot of things to do in the area you may consider just staying in campus with some friends. Plan out what you want to do for each day so you don't just end up still around the dorms, and go have fun! This way you're not paying for a hotel and minimal transportation.

5. Road trip


If you have a friend with a car, take advantage! Everyone on the trip pitch in some money for gas and go! Try traveling the areas of the state that you've been wanting to explore or even travel to a different state. This is a great way to get to know your friends better because you'll be in a car together for so long! Disclaimer: you will be in a car with these people A LOT so make sure you know you'll be able to handle being with them for that long.

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.
