College as Told by "The Office"

I think anyone that is in college will tell you that they have a love-hate relationship with it. I love being with my friends and honestly love my classes, but it does become extremely stressful and hectic at times. If you have ever watched "The Office," you will truly enjoy the comedy of this article.

When you have a test and you have to use the same pencil because you totally believe it has special powers because you used it last time and got an A.


When you decide you are just going to drop out, hitch a ride on a bus, become a hobo and totally run away from all responsibilities that you may have.

When you are sitting back relaxing and your friend texts you asking how studying for the test tomorrow is going. “What test?! We have a test?!”


When you have to write a 10 page essay but you have no clue what is going on, so you just start writing things that are completely untrue.


When your day is literally awful, and all you want is to be four years old again… and maybe eat a bunch of ice cream.


When your professors are the worst, obviously hate you and make everything due the same week. Do you like to watch the world burn?


When you just started Fall semester and you are counting down till summer.


When you finally get to go out.

When all your friends that didn’t go to college think that you are just paying to party. Meanwhile you are completely and utterly dead inside.


When you have gotten no sleep at all and you go completely insane.


When you walk out of a lecture like...

When you are completely stressed and can’t stop stress eating.

When you just cry for no reason at all.


When you should be studying, but you find every excuse you can to not study.


When you have NO money for real food, but you have like three-month old ice cream in the freezer so you eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

When your professor says that Wikipedia isn’t a creditable source.

Literally just college overall.

When you somehow make it through another semester, “I deserve a trophy.”

Here’s to crushing another year of college. I hope you make it through without completely losing your mind.

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.
