Being a college student can be dwelling on the expenses. It is hard to work and study at the same time, so most college students don't have as much spending money as they would like to have (unless they ask their parents for some spare change.)

There are a few stores that college students love and Five Below is one of them. It is mostly used for younger kids but there is something there for everyone, especially with a good price tag attached. Any college student can attest that going to Five Below is always an adventure. Whether you are just popping in, or have something in particular that you are buying, the store will always make you in a good mood. Below is the top 5 reasons why the store Five Below is great.

1. The price

Five below, everything is $5 and below. Are you seeing that??? Nothing gets better than that, especially with a college budget. A $3 face mask or a $5 fuzzy blanket is something we all need sometimes.

2. The vibe

There is something that always makes someone smile when going into this store. It could be seeing all the kids pick out their favorite toy of the day, or just simply seeing that a candy bar is 68 cents. The store also has a lot of colors going on and the vibe is very wild, which always seems to lift peoples' spirits.

3. The decor supplies

This store carries somethings that seems to surprise people. Some of their decor supplies is nice and nobody would even guess you bought it at Five Below. Some of their canvases look like you just purchased it on Amazon or Bed, Bath & Beyond.

4. It has things you never knew you needed

Stores that carry an array of items always make their customers happy. Five Below has such an array of items, you will find yourself buying a good pair of workout socks you didn't even think you needed.

5. The innocence

Us college kids sometimes miss our childhoods and think back to when life used to be easier. There is something that makes us college kids smile when we see something that reminds us of the good ole' days of our childhood. Seeing unicorn soap or a Star Wars jump rope just brings back memories.

I hope you now see why Five Below is just an all-around great store. Next time you are looking for a store to browse in, I 10/10 recommend Five Below.

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.

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.
