There is no better way to escape the anxiety of classes and consistent studying than a spontaneous road trip with your best friend. Driving into the unexplored without the idea of what will happen and who you will meet is thrilling. Yes, it can be a little worrisome at some points, but after this road trip I’ve learned to always have an open mind and be willing to accept whatever happens and make the most of it! In order to have a spontaneous road trip, you and your friend need to think of a place last minute that you want to travel to. You need not to worry what will happen, just pack your bags and go! The more unplanned, the more exciting it will be!

Get chick before you leave


The best way to start a road trip is to stock up on the food. I personally recommend Chick-fil-A. The sweet lemonade and salty fries is the perfect snack for a song filled drive

Stop driving and take a photoshoot

After driving for a good 2 hours you’re going to need a break to stretch out your legs. Why not make your break memorable and find a cool place near where you parked and take photos. We found an endless field by Buc-ee’s where we decided to run and take a few voguey snaps!


Find a random ice cream shop

Feel free to stop along the drive if you see any place that looks even a little appetizing or photogenic. The fun about a spontaneous road trip is that you have nothing planned! You can do whatever you want without worrying about the time!

Honestly, the more unplanned the better!

Live in the moment and love life! Life is an adventure. Live every second of every day as that adventure!

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.
