1. What are you going to do with your life?

I am literally just a fully grown child. I think I have an idea, but I also have no idea, but I'm also like 100% confident in my idea. Sooo yeah. What are you going to do with your life?

2. Where are you going to college?

I really don't have no clue. Many of my schools don't let me know until April, so if you would please stop asking me every time I see you, maybe I can stop stressing out.

3. You should totally go to (insert college).

"I had so much fun there!" "It has such a great ______ program." "This school has the best food options." "That college has great greek life." Okay, thank you for making every single college on the planet sound amazing. I'm totally not more confused on where to go now.

4. So what are you and your boyfriend/girlfriend going to do when you go to separate schools?

This is 100% my personal business, and it doesn't affect you at all. Whether we stay together or break up or whatever we do, you don't need to be involved or informed.

5. It's going to be so hard to get a job with that degree.

Well, actually, you don't have a degree in that, so you can't tell me what opportunities it allows. Plus a college degree is better than no degree.

6. You better mention me in your speech at graduation.

I'm only allotted a certain number of minutes, and I don't have time to individually mention every single person I've ever encountered. Sorry.

7. So how are you going to pay off your student loans?

Let's just focusing on graduating first, okay?

No matter if you have plans or not, I think all of us high school seniors can agree on one thing:

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.
