13 Reasons Your High School Besties Are THE Best
Andrea Kleckner

I hear all the time about how people rarely talk to their high school friends and to me that is weird as I still talk constantly to my high school friend group. Actually my high school friend group is my group of people. And there are many reasons why they are the best.

1. They have known you for so long

You don't have to pretend not to be weird.

2. You can complain about your hometown and not have to explain anything

3. There are so many memories that you kind of lost track

Sometimes you have to remind your friends, other times they have to remind you that yes you were there!

4. Any time you go home for break, you always have plans. Plus their house is like your second home.

Just walk on in and steal some food.

5. They were with you when you did THE embarrassing and stupid things


Part of you thought you were cool.

6. You survived drama, high school, going into adulthood and so much more together

Oh high school, I don't miss you.

7. Oh the inside jokes

You had to be there.

8. Experiencing many firsts together from first dances to the first relationship

Oh school dances, the sheer awkwardness just radiated from the room.

9. Awkward phases

I'm a great dancer, I have no idea what anyone is talking about.

10. Still loving you even though you go to a rival school

HAIL TO PITT!

11. Helping with life choices because your friends know you really well

Trying to decide a major is hard but your high school friends know you and usually know what future job might make you happy.

12. Being nostalgic anytime you look through photos or yearbooks

Let's not forget pointing out the people you loathed.

13. Seeing them again is the best!

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.
