To The High School Friends Who Are, And Who Are Not, In My Life
Ashley Stephens

Dear High School Friends,

Thank you for being you. Some of you stayed and some of you are doing your own thing, and that's ok. The only reason I made it through high school was because of y'all. I hated high school and y'all just made it so much better for me. I don't know what I would've done without y'all.

To the ones I never see anymore, except on social media, I'm glad you're doing well. I see you guys post all the time and most of you look so happy. I'm glad y'all are going to school and with people that you can be happy with. You're doing great things in life, so keep it up. There is a reason we don't hang out any more and it was just time to go our separate ways. Continue to be great and keep God first and everything you want will happen for you in time.

To the ones I still hang out with and that are still my friends, I love you guys.

You are some of the most important people in my life and I never want that to change. Y'all are gonna be the ones in and at my wedding. Thank you for being you and never changing. Thank you for staying by my side even when I'm hours away. I'm glad we have our late night FaceTimes when I'm two hours away. I'm glad we constantly SnapChat and have our streaks. What I don't like is when you break those streaks (just kidding). But seriously though, y'all are awesome. Even though the summer is when we see the most of each other, that is enough. We can go forever without seeing each other and then when we do see each other it's like we never stopped. I love our trips to Auburn where literally all we do is walk around the mall and go eat. Thanks for going on adventures with me and for the awesome sleepovers. I love talking about the different Netflix shows we all love. Thanks to my best friend that gets me hooked on all of those shows. Y'all are my forever friends and now I'm just adding more to the group while at college.

I want you to know that you are going to do great things in life and I am so proud of y'all... Each of y'all.

With all my love,

Ashley

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human Creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human 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.

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.
