It is that time of year again! Thanksgiving is in a few days! After that it is Christmas then after Christmas it will be a new year (2017). I am definitely looking forward to going home for Thanksgiving and have many things to look forward to.

1. Relaxing


The good thing about going home for Thanksgiving is that you get to relax and clear your mind of many things. This semester may be tough right now but you get this break to relax and figure out what you need to do to finish strong.

2. Exercising

One way to help you relax is by exercising while you are at home for the time being. You may did not have time to go to the recreation center at school to blow off some steam but going home will give you enough time to do so.

3. Helping

I know that everyday is thanksgiving but we are in the season of being thankful and helping those that may need it. We may not of had the time to do all of these things before but this is the perfect time to capitalize on this opportunity. You can go to your local food drive/pantry and help out or help relatives or friends with anything they might need help with.

4. Family

Being able to be around your family and see how they are doing is always a great thing. It is also a blessing so make sure you be thankful to see them and spend time with them.

5. Food

I mean I do not know about you but I am definitely looking forward to eating (even though I always do). Remember not to eat too much and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

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.
