In This Article:

Lee and Elle have had their fair share of arguments throughout their long friendship. Their set rules have helped them realize the importance of their best friend and I have chosen to try out their rules with my bestie.

Rule #6: If you can't tell your best friend what your doing, you probably shouldn't be doing it

I made the mistake of kissing one of my friend's boyfriend. I wasn't able to tell my best friend until about 5-6 months after. The idea of keeping such a big secret from her ate me up inside. It has honestly been so much easier since I began following rule #6. Being open in a friendship is super important.

Rule #7: No matter how mad you are, you have to forgive your best friend if they bring you ice cream

Ice cream fixes everything! I understand that there are some cases that this rule may not be able to apply, but it can fix the small things. You forgot about plans? Bring ice cream. You knock them off the bed at a sleepover? Bring them ice cream.

Rule #10: If one friend is sick/moody, the other is responsible for bringing supplies to make them feel better

This overall is a given. When my best friend is either sick, or in a mood I always try to bring her her favorite things. Her being in a better mood is overall better for everyone. No one wants to see the moody side of a teenage girl, so keeping each other happy makes the world a better place for everyone.

Rule #18: Always be happy for your bestie's success

Anytime your bestie succeeds, make it a big deal. No matter how small, whether it is she passed a test, or she got into the college of her dreams, get excited with her. Be her hype man 24/7.

Rule #19: Always go to the same school as your bestie

The worst thing that could happen would be that you and your bestie would get split up. Going to the same school as your bestie will make life much easier. Going through all your firsts is a must, and what better way to do that than to begin the adulting adventure together.

Best friends are forever, or at least they should be. Don't let small disagreements ruin an amazing relationship. Be the Lee to their Elle.

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.
