Thank You To One Of My Best Friends, I Wouldn't Have Survived Coastal Without You

Gab where do I even begin?

We’ve been friends since my freshman year at Coastal. We clicked right off the bat of meeting each other. You’re soon leaving me to graduate college…like less than 25 days away and I haven’t really grasped that yet. Like it seems so unreal. Where has the time gone? I remember it like it was yesterday, I was going to join a sorority here at Coastal and I met you. After that, I knew we needed to be friends. No one in this world clicks with me like you do. We honestly are equally as crazy and weird.

We’ve gone through a lot together. You’ve helped me through some really hard times in my life, even saved it once too. We’ve traveled together, done stupid things together, helped each other not be so crazy together and just all around better one another in any way we could.

And I will be forever grateful for that. We talk at least twice a week each week. We haven’t been able to see each other as much lately but we are just so busy.

The friendship you’ve given me the last four years at Coastal has been filled with memories, to say the least. You’ve helped me overcome and achieve big goals in my life or helped me make huge decisions I couldn’t make on my own. You’re also the reason why I joined Odyssey and wrote so many wonderful articles so this one is for you:

Thank you for everything Gabby.

It’s meant the world to me to have such an amazing friend by my side and I couldn’t have done many things without you. From the random car rants, the snapchats of your lunch at your internships, and babysitting, the funny snapchats of just you, inspirational texts, the check-in texts to make sure I’m doing okay and to see how I am, all of it. I’m so grateful for it. I can’t wait to see all the amazing things you accomplish after you leave Coastal.

I am so proud of who you’ve become today and I’m going to miss you dearly. We’ve grown so much as individuals and together. And I know that even with you graduating were still going to be friends and talk all the time, and yes I will come visit too!

You will forever be my best friend, and I am so thankful for everything that led me to you. I couldn’t have imagined Coastal without you.

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.
