17 Bucket List Items For The Rising FGCU Senior
Livia Chandler

It seems like yesterday I walked across the stage for my high school graduation. I can remember it perfectly and was so excited about college. Well fast forward three years, a very fast three years I might add, and here I am at the end of my junior year, about to be a rising senior. SENIOR IN COLLEGE.

What?! How did that happen?

The reality of preparing to graduate has fully hit, and I have came to the conclusion that I have a year left to "be a kid" and enjoy life as a college student. With that being said, I have compiled a bucket list for myself of everything I wish to accomplish before May of 2019. Ready, set go!

1. Go water skiing at the FGCU waterfront

2. Befriend a person in every class

Time is ticking to make connections!

3. Tell my parents a sincere, "Thank you" for getting me to where I am right now

Seriously, they are the best for getting me where I am right now.

4. Hike a FGCU Nature Trail

5. Work less (yeah, right, but I'll at least try)

6. Secure a big girl job

7. Regularly attend yoga classes

8. Go to the Comedy Club

9. Always say yes to late night snack runs

Or Walmart trips, those are fun too.

10. Embrace the good, bad and ugly of college roommates

11. Worry less

12. Enjoy the little things of being a college student

Like student discounts, and wearing yoga pants 7 days a week

13. Nap as often as possible

There is no time for a mid-day nap in a 9-5 big girl job

14. Attend on-campus events

The slide on the library lawn and free game nights won't last forever

15. The more pictures, the better

You have to have something funny on your Facebook to look back on in 20 years, right?

16. Stop rushing time away

17. Go to class and be thankful I made it this far!

Sure, college may have its ups and downs but its been the most eventful, growing, craziest time of my life- and I'm ready to embrace this last year of it!

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.
