8 Things I Want To Thank My Best Friend For
Leigh Schrage

We always expect our best friends to be there when you need them. Some go the extra mile, here are eight things I want to thank you for.

1. Thank you for holding the pieces together when I was falling apart.

Not everyone has that friend that they can be the most vulnerable with. But I'm glad I have mine. Thank you for being there for me at some of the worst parts of my life. Not only are you my best friend, you're my family.

2. Thank you for your honesty.

Whether it was over something silly, like whether or not the shoes I picked out were cute, or something serious, as I chose my home for the upcoming school year. You were honest about the decisions I made. Whether you agreed with them or not.

3. Thank you for listening.

I know there are times where you don't understand the circumstances I am going through, or experiencing, and you didn't know what to say. Regardless, you listened. You let me vent about the tough situations and made me feel like someone cared about what I had to say.

4. Thank you for always wanting to solve an argument.

Even though we don't always see eye to eye, we always found a way to work through our disputes. Our friendship is too valuable to lose over any disagreement, and I'm glad you agree.

5. Thanks for being my ice cream, Netflix-binging partner.

You're my go to for a relaxing night. Our best nights don't involve drinking, going out and partying. Our girls' nights are by far my most favorite. Face masks, rocky road, and Grey's Anatomy binge-watching.

6. Thank you for participating in my last minute plans.

Regardless if you have a million other things going on throughout the day, my text message about grabbing coffee in the next half hour never goes unanswered. Thank you for being my coffee date, movie date, dinner date, pretty much my second boyfriend. But anyway, you get the idea.

7. Thanks for listening to me complain.

Whether I complained about being broke, about my mom (again...love you mom) or pretty much about anything and everything. Thank you for letting me be the whiner I am.

8. Thank you for accepting me.

Being that you've been friends with me for the last nine years you've seen me at my worst and my best. Regardless, you still choose to hang out with me. So I mean, that's pretty cool.

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.
