50 Thoughts You Have When You Own A FitBit

This holiday season, one of the most popular gifts was a fitness band otherwise known as a FitBit. This high-tech bracelet can track your sleep, your steps throughout the day, and even your heartbeat. If you don't have one, odds are you know someone who has one. But if you're reading this article, you probably have one. It's a love-hate relationship between you and that little electronic accessory. Here are some thoughts you have when you own a FitBit:

1. I'm so excited for this FitBit!

2. I'm gonna be sooo healthy because of this thing!

3. I'm gonna be like those athletic people in the commercials.

4. Who jogs and looks good while doing it?

5. #NewYearNewMe

6. OK, how do I get it working?

7. So there's this app I need to download?

8. This has a lot of features.

9. I thought it was just supposed to track my steps,

10. Is my sleep really that important?

11. I guess I could track my food...

12. But that's so much effort...

13. Oh, cool, I can set an alarm.

14. What if I woke up to my wrist vibrating every morning?

15. Would I get a heart attack or wake up like Beyonce?

16. #flawless

17. Guess there's only one way to find out...

18. I need to set goals?

19. I guess I'll just do the average.

20. How hard can that be?

21. Dang, this thing keeps falling off.

22. It's weird having this heavy object on my wrist.

23. This is why I stopped wearing bracelets in middle school.

24. Maybe I should have gotten a different color.

25. Forgot to take it off before I got in the shower...

26. Again...

27. OK, I am not reaching any goals by doing what this thing recommends.

28. Who are these crazy people who walk so many steps that this is an average?

29. At least I hit my sleep goal!

30. ...on the weekends.

31. I get no sleep on the weekdays, but what else is new?

32. #8ams

33. Ugh, I'm almost to my step goal but I'm in bed...

34. Guess I need to walk around my bedroom.

35. But I don't feel like doing anything...

36. Does this even help me?

37. My wrist is vibrating. It's time to do something!

38. The app is using up all my battery.

39. I reached my step goal.

40. Yay!

41. I am the image of health and wellness!

42. I have never felt better about myself!

43. Gone are my unhealthy ways because I have committed to a life of fitness!

44. Oh, wait. I have to do this all again tomorrow?

45. ...and my FitBit is dying.

46. Time to charge it!

47. Time to take a nap!

48. There's really no point in moving if I don't have my FitBit on.

49. Wait... that's not the point...

50. Remind me why I got this in the first place?

AI music threatens creativity

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.
