The warm weather is kind of here, the birds are somewhat chirping, and the libraries are starting to get packed. This means that the end of the semester is quickly approaching resulting in a lot of panic from students everywhere. To relieve some stress, I'm going to take you through a common semester with quotes from "The Office."

1. The first day of the semester when you walk into class and realize this will be your life for the next 4 months


2. When your professor skips the syllabus and goes straight into lecture material

3. When the first exam of the semester comes around and you realize that scrolling through Facebook and Twitter was of no use to you whatsoever

4. When you decide to start writing a 5-page paper on a book you never read two hours before it is due

5. When you're halfway through the semester eating ramen noodles for the 18th night in a row

8. But then you realize that eating ramen for 18 days straight isn't the worst thing in the world because in the end...

7. When the second exam of the semester comes around and you didn't learn from previous experience that Twitter and Facebook do not count as paying attention in class


8. When finals season approaches and you are nowhere near prepared for the absolute chaos that is bound to ensue


9. When you make it through exams and group projects and have to wish your senior friends the best of luck on their future endeavors

Only three and a half more weeks guys, we can do it!

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.
