Goodbye 2016, Hello 2017

2016 is almost over, which means that 2017 is almost here. Crazy, right? We made another trip around the sun and had so many memories in these 365 days.

As much as I'll miss 2016, I'm excited for 2017. I've had so many firsts this year and made so many memories this year that I wouldn't change for anything. And I'm excited to see what 2017 has in store for me. I'm sure it'll be great with the good and bad days.

I'm excited for any new beginnings I'm going to go through. I wonder how many great memories I'm going to add on in 2017. I'm excited to see how 2017 will exceed 2016.

2016 will be in the past. And there's nothing we can do to change it or do anything about it.

Though, 2016 wasn't the best year with all the violence and terror, there still has been plenty of good days. Here's to the New Year and a fresh start. Bring in the New Year with some joy and a smile! Have fun and be safe.

Happy New Year and I hope 2017 will be a better year, or an even better year, for everyone. Bring in the New Year with an open mind! Think of all the best possible outcomes for this New Year. Set your goals for the year and work to achieve them. Keep yourself preoccupied doing your New Years Resolution list! Write it down and work a bit every single day to get to what you want to do for your resolution or your resolutions!

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.
