How Being A Sox And Pats Fan Feels Right Now

So the last couple weeks as a Boston sports fan have definitely been crazy. First, Brady is out so we have been watching Garoppolo. First week he did great and he was killing it the first half of the patriots game. Until he went down, so now the patriots are playing with a third string QB. AWESOME, RIGHT? We go from worrying to feeling calm to worrying again. All I am thinking is two more weeks then the goat comes back. Now the sad thing is we aren't even done yet, because Gronk has been out for two weeks. We still are 2-0 but we need Gronk back to ease some of this stress.

Now, for the RED SOX! OH MY GOSH!!! What is happening? Am I dreaming? I always keep the faith, however this is something crazy. We are killing it! First in the AL EAST. SWEEPING THE YANKS in a four-game series. Playing the orioles this week, it is going to be a crazy week that will completely change how the AL EAST is set up, but it is so exciting to watch. This is where I don't understand how people aren't baseball fans. September and October baseball are crazy. Now players-wise, still missing seeing Benentendi, always will be a fan. For Hanley though! Who is this man? Where did he come from? How long will it last? Who knows? Hopefully is showing sox fans that once Papi Leaves he can step up and be clutch, and if he continues to do this and get us to the post season I will believe it!


Being a Boston Sports fan is one of the best things. They bring me so much joy, but also sooooo much stress. Literally the next month for baseball and football in Boston is going to be a rollercoaster and I cannot wait to hope on the ride.

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.
