To my graduating friends,

Thanks for being amazing. As someone who made friends with people who are almost all older than me in college, the thought of you graduating already after only knowing you for two years is tough. It is something I have avoided thinking about and the time to face this reality has approached quicker than I could have ever imagined.

Despite the fact that I am going to miss seeing you all the time, I am so unbelievably proud and happy for you. This is a big accomplishment and I have been there for the last two years as you completed your higher level classes and the most difficult times of your college career. I know how challenging it was at times and that makes me even more proud. You are already moving on to some amazing things that you have lined up for post-graduation as well and I could not be happier for you.

Thank you for being such a great friend to me from the beginning when I was a first-semester freshman just trying to figure everything out and find my way. We have so much in common and we are so similar. We just clicked from the beginning, which was so refreshing compared to other people I met at the start of college. Knowing I can count on you and that you are always someone I can turn to is something I appreciate so much.

Thanks for giving me the best advice especially when it comes to school. I can honestly say that without your help, I probably would have made some poor decisions about professors, classes, dorms, majors, schedules, and other specifics of life at Rhode Island College. I have seen so many people who have no idea what they are doing because no one ever told them the ins and outs of RIC. I am so grateful that I have you in my life to steer me away from terrible professors, bad classes, etc.

Overall, I wish we were graduating at the same time but I know we will still be friends even after your graduation. I cannot thank you enough for being in my life and for becoming such a great friend. I am so proud of you and am excited to experience many more laughs and great times with you in the future!

Congrats grad!!! YOU DID IT!

Love,

Danielle

AI music threatens creativity

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

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.
