Why My Boyfriend Is My Best Friend
McKenzie Lewis

My boyfriend and I got together in the 9th grade and we have been inseparable ever since. When you date someone for that long, you are bond to get some hate, even from people you would't expect. People say things like, "You two shouldn't hang out so much. You're going to break up, anyways." But, I don't like to think like that. My boyfriend is my best friend, my go to and my shoulder to cry on and I wouldn't have it any other way. Many people would say I only call him my best friend because he is my boyfriend, but here are a few genuine reasons why he is an absolute great friend.

He's always there for me.

These past three years have been filled with ups and down. I reached some of my highest goals and I have also had some of my biggest dreams not come true. There have been some many tears, laughs and smiles and through it all, he has always been there. If I accomplished something, he was there to cheer me on. If I failed at something, he was there to cheer me up. Whatever life threw at me, I knew he was going to be there to help me through it.

He can always make me laugh.

I will admit I am prone to crazy mood swings ranging from sobbing into my pillow to being angry at my cat. No matter how strong my attitude or how heard my heart hurt, my boyfriend always knows how to make me smile. It could be making a silly face or telling the best joke I've ever heard. Somehow, he just knows exactly what to do make me come out of my slump.

He supports all of my life endeavors.

I definitely have a wide range of interests. From the FFA, to acting to reading, I like to dabble in a little bit of everything. And even though he may not have any interest in what I'm doing, he's always there to support me. He has been at every play, read every book alongside me and knows everything about FFA even though he's never taken an agriculture class in his life. No matter what my current endeavor, he's sure to do his research and be at every event possible.

So, yeah, my boyfriend is my best friend and I'm actually really proud of it because he is a great person and an even greater friend.

AI music threatens creativity

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.

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.
