Dear Significant Other
Constance Register

Dear significant other,

Just kidding.

I love you. I hope you always remember that. Thank you for all of the activities you've done with me. Thank you for all the silliness. Thank you for all the crap you put up with. Thank you for dealing with me. Thank you for loving me even when I am hard to love. Thank you for treating me with the utmost respect. Thank you for protecting me. Thank you for worrying. Thank you for being there with me when I have needed you and thank you for being there when I have not.

Dear significant other,

Though we've had our ups and downs we've prevailed and I thank you for sticking around because I know that at times, more often than not, I am hard to love. Thank you for keeping my spirits up and keeping faith in me. Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for encouraging me.

Dear significant other,

Thank you for the laughs, the smiles, and the dancing. Thank you for the meals you provide and the tender loving care. Thank you for forcing medicine down my throat when I am too stubborn to take it myself because I would rather let my immune system fight it naturally. Thank you for that because it makes me feel better almost instantly and that is all you ever want for me, is to feel my best. Thank you for wanting the best for me and thank you for bringing out the best in me. Thank you for still wanting to be with me when you've seen me at my worst. Thank you for seeing me first thing in the morning and not running. Thank you for the kisses. Thank you for the hugs. Thank you for appreciating my love for makeup. Thank you for letting me do yours occasionally. Thank you for not getting mad that I published that on social media. Thank you for doing my eyebrows for me that one time. Thank you for getting pedicures with me.

Thank you for all the sushi you get me. Thank you for feeding that addiction. Thank you for taking me to prom senior year and thank you for all the trips to the antique district that started our relationship. Thank you for introducing yourself 5 years ago. Thank you for sitting by me in class when I asked you to, otherwise, this article wouldn't exist. Thank you for being you. Thank you for your silliness and crazy. Thank you for putting up with my intense love of cats and animals in general. Thank you for the intense love of "Brown Eyed Girl" you've instilled in me. Thank you for taking me to the emergency room at 4 a.m.

Most of all, thank you for loving me.

But I must ask,

Did you bring more cheese pizza?

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.
