9 Reasons Why Winter Is My Favorite Season

1. The Cold

I am one of those people who prefer the cold over the heat any day! I’ve rather be bundled up in layers in the chilly weather than be melting in the humid heat.

2. Christmas

How could you not love Christmas? It’s the most wonderful time of the year spending time with loved ones plus there’s tons of food, presents, and joy.

3. The Beautiful, Fluffy Snow

The soft delicacy of the snow just amazes me with its beauty as it falls. It’s such a beautiful sight to watch from my window and to wake up to.

4. Ice-Skating Season

I’ve always loved watching figure skaters skate gracefully on the ice. It's astonishing how they perform their tricks so smoothly. You don’t need to be a pro to ice skate. Ice-skating is a lot of fun honestly even for a beginner. You may fall several times, but keep getting up and you’ll get the hang of it.

5. There are no bugs

I hate mosquitoes, bees, or any type of bug. Anytime I’m stung, I always end up with an insane inching bite the size of my thumb. I know bugs are essential to nature, but come on. One season without them is paradise for me.

6. Hot cocoa

Hot cocoa with marshmallows is essential during the cold season. The chocolatey warm beverage keeps you warm and cozy and making you feel like a kid again.


7. Snow Days!

No matter what school year you are in, hearing that a big snow storm is in the weather forecast only gives you one thought “NO SCHOOL!” Instead of having to commute in the mess, you get to enjoy it.

8. Winter Break!

As a college student, winter break is always anticipated by us. The one month of no class is just a blessing. No homework, more sleep, Christmas, vacation, and so on. It’s literally the greatest time of the year.


9. My Birthday

*cough cough* I was born in the midst of a big snowstorm. I’m basically a winter baby at heart, which explains my cold soul. I’m just kidding or am I?

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.
