Dear Best Friend,

I want to thank you for putting up with me and being my best friend. I honestly don’t know what I would do without you.

The day we met, it seemed like just another day in middle school. Looking back at that day now, that day impacted the rest of my life for the better. I now have someone to laugh, cry, and share the best moments of my life with. Middle school history class didn't just teach us history but created our future and history to come. Middle school Spanish may have done my GPA dirty but it taught me how good of friends we could really be. From crazy memories to stories we can't tell our parents until we are like 30 and over for dinner, I’m glad I spent most of my time with you.

We have so many memories together; I couldn't tell you where to start.

Going through high school together, we’ve grown so much together. From crazy boy problems to framing for tests to endless holiday parties and even some crazy house parties. The small memories are equally just as important to me. Getting ice cream after having our hearts broken, eating pizza in your living room, driving around to early 2000s music, random city days, old and new friends, road rage stories and so much more.

I’m thankful for not only having you as my best friend, but for gaining a family as well. You're basically my sister and your little sister feels just as much as mine. Your parents treat me as one of their own and I’m starting to think my mom likes you better. I’m glad my sister can go to you with problems and I’m happy you treat her with a warm welcome all the time.

So, best friend, thank you for dealing with me on FaceTime at 3 AM, for bringing me food at work, dealing with my boy problems, taking pics of me for instagram and so much more. Being your best friend is my favorite job. I can’t wait to see our future together and see where life takes us.

Sincerely,

Your Best Friend

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.
