8 Things That Happen During Finals Week As Told By John Cena

Finals are an unavoidable evil that we must face before freedom. When finals week comes around, your stress levels shoot through the roof and all you can think about is how close to summer you are if you can just hang on for a little while longer. What better way to express the struggles we face during finals week than to utilize John Cena? In my opinion, there is none.

1. When you finally realize finals are imminent.

Where did all the time go? It was January five seconds ago.

2. The stress starts to get to you and you realize...

3. When you find out your final is cumulative and you remember a total of zero things from the semester.

Excuse me, professor? Can we maybe go over everything you've ever said to me ever? Thanks.

4. You have to laugh at all your mom's jokes so she'll take pity on you and give you money for food.

Yes, Mom. You're so funny. Hilarious, even. Now please help me. I need money for sustenance. Please.

5. How it feels when you pull an all-nighter for an 8 a.m. final.

One of the most painful things you will ever do to yourself ever. And yet here you are, doing it anyway.

6. When your coffee consumption has gotten to be too much and you start getting weird.

7. You finally just have to accept the fact you're going to fail.

This is fine. This is fine. I'm OK with this. Not a big deal, really. I hope Mom and Dad are OK with me living with them forever.

8. Managing to pass a final you were 10 thousand percent sure you were going to fail.

Never mind, Mom and Dad. You won't have to let me live with you forever. I got this.

Finals are stressful and you will struggle, but that's OK. You got this. I believe in you.

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.
