22 Reasons Why I'm Thankful For My Roommate
Sarah Tedder

Roomie,

I don't tell you enough how much I appreciate you. I'm so glad the Lord placed you in my life and even let you be my roommate. I can't imagine going through this stage of life with anyone else.

1. Thank you for listening to my problems

You are always there to listen and you never judge me.

2. Thank you for giving me laundry detergent when I'm out

Seriously, you save my life sometimes.

3. Thank you for the Capri-Suns

It keeps me young.

4. Thank you for the daily YouTube videos

You provide most of my laughs, so kudos to you for that.

5. Thank you for being my lunch date

...and thank you for sharing your queso.

6. Thank you for going to Waffle House with me at midnight

These are some of my favorite memories.

7. Thank you for letting me shower first

Even when you have an 8 AM in the morning

8. Thank you for waking me up when I'm going to oversleep for class

I would never go to class if it weren't for you.

9. Thank you for painting my right hand's nails

I literally could not have both hands painted without you. I'm just not that coordinated.

10. Thank you for picking me up from class when I'm lazy

Even when my class is less than a 10-minute walk you still pick me up. That's a true friend right there.

11. Thank you for letting me wear your clothes


I couldn't be this cute without your clothes.

12. Thank you for the deep talks before we fall asleep

Even if I regret staying up so late the next morning...

13. Thank you for loving to decorate for the holidays as much as I do

Thank you for agreeing that all of our decor has to come from the Target dollar section.

14. Thank you for the fashion advice

You tell me when my outfit doesn't look right and you always pick out something cuter.

15. Thank you for teaching me that simplicity is better

Now I know that white and cute lights are the best to decorate with.

16. Thank you for reminding me why I chose my major

You constantly remind me of my original love and my end goal.

17. Thank you for being my photographer

I have the cutest pictures because of you. Also, thanks for always letting me be on my "good side".

18. Thank you for crying with me when Taylor Swift releases a new song

& for listening to it on repeat and learning every word with me.

19. Thank you for being honest with me when I need it

Honesty can be hard to give sometimes. I'm so glad you choose to let me hear what is best for me.

20. Thank you for loving naps as much as me

You understand the importance of a 10 minute nap. I respect that.

21. Thank you for dancing in public with me

Why are we so weird??

22. Thank you for being you

I couldn't survive this year without ya.

We spend so much time together that when we aren't together it's weird. I hope you know how much you are loved. I can't wait to see where the Lord takes you and does through you. Thanks for helping me survive college, chica.

"Give me 3 minutes and 30 seconds to make my Mac-n-Cheese before you turn off the lights, please!!"

love ya,

S

AI music threatens creativity

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.
