The Best Things I've Bought Off Amazon Lately

Okay, I have to admit...I'm addicted to Amazon Prime. I get a college student discount so I always renew my membership and I get free 2-day shipping. What's better than that? I buy almost everything I use off of Amazon, so here are some of the best items I've purchased recently.

inVitamin's Natural Whitening Activated Charcoal Toothpaste- This stuff is the bomb! It will dye your gums and teeth black whilst you're brushing them, but it whitens your teeth at least 2 shades after you rinse. It's insane! I don't know how it works, but I do know activated charcoal is really good for your health.

TP-Link Smart Plug (No Hub)- If you own an Amazon Dot or Echo, this product is aimed at you. You can now control your lights with your voice! This is awesome for me when I go grocery shopping and it gets dark before I get home. I can get through the door and say "Alexa, turn on the lights" and my house lights up. It's super nifty and I can control it via cell phone app.

Dirt Devil Vacuum Cleaner Simpli-Stik- Dude, this vacuum is better than a Dyson, I swear! It is so handy for little spills and hair on carpet. It's super lightweight and had really powerful suction, the only bad part is that it has a short cord. If you buy this vacuum, invest in an extension cord.

TubShroom- Okay, I sound like an old person, but this thing is awesome! If your hair sheds like crazy when you shower, you need this. It catches my crazy curly hair, my dogs short hair, and my boyfriends straight blonde locks. It saves me tons of money because I don't have to buy Draino anymore and it looks super cute! It's shaped like a button and comes in cute colors.

London City Skyline Decal (StickerSlug)- This is a cute decal that you can put on your laptop or wall.I bought this before my freshman year and it's still stuck on my 13 inch MacBook Air. It's super cute and super durable. The seller on Amazon is really easy to speak with too.

So, these are just a few of my buys off of Amazon. Amazon Prime is such a great investment, it's actually saved me money! I'm not even writing this because they paid me, I'm writing it because I'm actually obsessed with Amazon and their products. Just click the photo if you're intrested in the product and it takes you right to the product page on Amazon. Happy shopping!

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.

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.
