Dear anyone reading this,

All ages are welcome to enjoy my rant style Odyssey posts, however this one I think most juniors in college/university will relate to. As you may have guessed it- I am a junior (for the next few weeks anyways), and that scares me. Now I know people say that Seniors are the one who are stressed and feeling anxious for the next few weeks to come. To be frank, yes I do agree with that statement however as a junior entering senior year, all the stress of the real world sets in.

Sure most of us have plans for what we want to do, and how we want our future to be, but it's a whole new ballgame once that "once upon a time" is now. Now is the time to worry about applications to grad programs, and jobs after graduation. Now is when the first lasts will start (our last college summer). I don't know about you but there are so many emotions that are flooding me. The people I met, the time I spent here, the life experiences; I don't want that to end. Yet I'm excited I'm going to be a senior, I'm going to finally start the life I wanted and be my own person. It is all so much, but I am grateful that I am here.

To any of you reading this, good luck on finals whichever year you may be in, and may the curve be in your favor.

Love,

Your neighborhood humanoid.

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.
