An Advance Apology To My Soon-To-Be Roommates

I just thought I'd get a head start.

An Advance Apology To My Soon-To-Be Roommates
SarrahBetz

Dear Soon-To-Be Roommates,

I love you guys. You're each awesome and special in your own ways, and I know we're going to have a blast living together. I can't wait for those late night food runs and those Friday night pizza nights. That being said, I just wanted to apologize before we move in together. Why? Because I probably won't remember to say 'sorry' to you enough times. So, without further ado, let me get to apologizing!

I apologize for all times I'll probably yell at you to be quiet while I'm watching one of my thousand TV shows.

I apologize for yelling at you when you wake me up from a nap that I shouldn't be taking (you guys are good friends and I'll thank you later).

I apologize for getting annoyed when you ask for help with anything. Like the dishes... we know this will happen.

I apologize for getting annoyed when you can't eat when I do so I have to eat alone or make something myself.

I apologize for all the times I'm going to want you and force you to do my hair.

I apologize for breaking out in songs that you hate or get tired of hearing me sing.

I apologize for the possibility of me changing the temperature behind your backs.

I apologize for my shedding and (most likely) not vacuuming it. I've lived with this long hair problem forever. I've gotten used to it so I guess it's time you do too.


I apologize for complaining about things.


I guess I could go on and on with this list, but I'll stop there. You guys know me more than I know myself, so I'm pretty certain you'd even be able to come up with even more things to put on this list than I could. I'm so excited to finally live with more than one human being this school year. We're going to have so many fun adventures, and for once I'm actually excited to get back to school. You guys make my life more colorful. Only a couple more weeks until we reunite!

Love,

Your future roommate.

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.
