6 Things I Would Need If I Were Stranded On An Island

I LOVE blankets and when it is cold I love them even more.

There are a lot of things I say I can't live without but if I was stranded on an island, the 6 things I made sure I had with me would be these things...

1. My water bottle

I know that sounds really cliche but if you see me, I always have some sort of water bottle with me. whether it is my Tervis, Yeti rambler, or Nalgene water bottle. I ALWAYS have one with me.

2. My tennis shoes

I love dressing up every once in a while, but more times than not, you will see me in the gym working out... which leads me to my next thing...

3. My gym membership

As much as I love going to the gym at school (for free) I prefer to go to the YMCA. It is literally my first thought of the day. I LOVE working out. whether it is the elliptical, biking, yoga classes, weights, or all of the above in one day, I love going to the gym.

4. My apple watch

I only use the apple watch for the activity app and to tell time but I love it when I get a notification and don't have to look at my phone (I also have a bad habit of losing my phone).

5. My blankets

I LOVE blankets and when it is cold I love them even more. I use them to cover up at my boyfriend's lacrosse games when it is super cold, I cover up with them when I am watching TV and I use about 10 when I am sleeping because I love them so much.

6. My Boyfriend

This item is last but certainly not least. My boyfriend is my rock and the light of my life! I just needed to find a way to talk about him. (I'm sorry if it is super cheesy) and yes, this is a throwback from my senior prom.

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.
