Spring semester, like any other semester, can really take a lot out of you. I love school, but towards the middle of the semester I start to get a gnawing feeling in my stomach that's telling me to run. I always push through it because I have to. Well, not only do I have to in order to get the degree I want, but because I want to. It gets extremely stressful, like all things can, but like I've said in the past, school is worth it. In the end, we'll have everything figured out and we'll look back on this and tell ourselves, "I'm glad I pulled through".

1. In the beginning of Spring semester.

2. Getting your first assignment done on time.


3. Finding out you have a group project.

4. Learning that you can't have your friend in your group for said project.

5. Waking up for the early classes in the beginning of the semester.

6. When you finally reach a weekend and you don't have homework.

7. Realizing midterms are coming up.

8. Spring Break!

9. Realizing how many essays are due that you procrastinated on over break.

10. Waking up early for classes in the middle of the semester.

11. Trying to find time to relax.


12. Pretending like everything is going to be fine even though you have a ton of work due in the next five weeks.

13. Studying for finals.

14. Still trying to wake up for those early classes.

15. The feeling you get when you finally finish all your finals and you're done.


With Spring Semester almost over, I'm glad I can say I pushed through it because I finally get to get my AA! If any of you are graduating this semester, congratulations, you did it, and enjoy your break before you have to go back to university. In the end, it's all worth it.

AI music threatens 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.
