To The Ex-Bestfriend I’m Still Cheering For
Kaylyn Atchison

I've been contemplating this letter for a while now after seeing how good you're doing at your university and how you've made good friends and also because of how I miss you. I'm not writing this out of spite or jealousy I'm just trying to write to get it off my mind. So, here goes. To my ex-best friend I want you to know that I'm sorry for the way we ended things. I'm sorry I would've rather hung out with a boy who didn't give a crap about me rather than hanging out with you. I'm sorry for the nights that I was too busy dealing with my own crap that I wasn't there for you and yours. I'm sorry I didn't listen anytime you ever told me to leave a stupid boy because he was treating me like trash. I'm sorry for the little fights we used to get in for absolutely no reason even though with time we would get over it. I'm sorry for the way I was to you when you were always there for me. But, I'm happy to see how you've made friends at your university. I'm happy to see that you are finally growing away from home rather than staying at home. You've always been a free spirit and I knew you wanted to get away. I'm happy you aren't trying to hang out with stupid boys from our high school anymore. I'm happy to see when you post a Snapchat story smiling or hanging out with your new friends. We grew apart, but that doesn't mean I can't still cheer for you from afar.

I miss the times we had in class or out of class. I miss driving around or going to Steak N Shake with the boys. I miss the fun times we had even though they're over now. I really wish things wouldn't have turned out like they did, but they did. Thanks for continually still liking my Instagram pictures and whatever else of mine you like. I'm happy that you seem happy. I'm happy to know that you've made friends where you are currently. And you seem mostly content with your life. Your free spirit and soul will take you wherever you want to go and you will always have fun with it. We may not be best friends anymore, but I will always be cheering you on because I never wanted things to end the way they did.

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.
