If you haven't seen How I Met Your Mother please stop reading this immediately and binge watch the whole 9 seasons right now. I'm serious. Go. But, if you have, then you'll know that it is most definitely the greatest show that has ever been made. It will make you laugh, cry, and by the 208th episode (yes I know how many there are) you feel like part of the gang. So for all you fellow HIMYM fanatics out there here's one more way you can connect with some of your favorite characters.

Robin Scherbatsky- Journalism/English

Robin is a go-getter. She doesn't take crap from anyone, and that's why she's successful (for the most part) in the news reporting industry.


Ted Mosby- Architecture

This is obvious. For all you architecture majors, I sympathize with the all-nighters you pull in studio, but just make sure you're not the crazy one on the bus, not everyone cares as much as you do about crown moldings.


Lily Aldrin- Education

I could not imagine a better kindergarten teacher than Lily. She's sweet, compassionate, and everyone needs a little "Aldrin Justice" in their life.

Marshall Eriksen- Political Science/Pre-Law

This GIF pretty much says it all.

Barney Stinson- Business

Though we will never know exactly what Barney does for Goliath National Bank, we can presume it is something highly illegal in the business industry.


Tracy McConnell (The Mother)- Music/Theater

Who wouldn't fall for the girl who plays guitar?

Kevin- Psychology

Psych majors- don't be the person who tries to analyze their friends all the time, it just gets annoying TBH.


Quinn- Dance

I guess we would call it "Modern Dance."

Nora- Nursing

During the brief time Nora and Barney were dating, you could tell Nora just had a way with people. From her sympathetic words, her natural desire to take care of others, and general "mom-like" qualities, it's obvious she'd be a great nurse.

Zoey- Environmental Science

Zoey is a badass environmentalist who doesn't take no for an answer. I'd hate to go up against a rebel like her.


Victoria- Culinary Arts

If I could bake like Victoria, I'd be wildly obese.

Mickey Aldrin- Entrepreneur

Entrepreneurs have to be a little crazy sometimes to come up with new products. IDK about you but I think Slap Bet is one of the greatest inventions of all time.

Stella- Biology

Even though Stella is the jerk who broke Ted's heart, you gotta admit it's pretty damn impressive she's such a young dermatologist. Definitely not worth all those lab reports tho.

James- Fashion Design

OMG James is the coolest. I could totally see him working as a designer in a big fashion company in NYC. You gotta have personality to work and fashion, and this mans got it.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

StableDiffusion

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.
