14 GIFs To Sum Up Life With A Roommate
Jessica Greene

Everyone has or will have to learn to deal with a roommate at least once in their life. Almost always, our first roommate is our college dorm roomie. While this is easy for some people, others get scared of living with a total stranger for the first time in 18 or 19 years. We've all have experienced or heard of the horror stories, but I am am so lucky this year to be living with someone who has become one of my best friends in college. Learning to live with someone is a lot of give and take. It can also be hilarious trying to figure it out. If you have/had a roommate, you'll understand at least one thing in the list below.

1. Meeting your roommate

*tries not to be super awkward* *is super awkward*

2. Coordinating and designing your room layout

It has to be perfect.

3. Getting ready and trying to not wake up your roommate

I at least TRY to not be the loudest person ever.

4. Getting woke up by your roommate

But then you realize it's noon and you should probably get up.

5. Walking into your room with people in there


I have never seen you in my life, why are you here?

6. Getting ready together

*borrows their outfit*

7. Trying to study together

There's so much better things to be doing, like talking about YouTube videos.

8. When they ask you for advice

I don't even follow my own advice, so...

9. Cleaning your room so your roommate doesn't hate you


Please don't come back right now, please don't come back, please don't see this...

10. When she doesn't hate you for being messy


Please don't judge me, and I won't judge you.

11. When we can share things like clothes or jewelry

The real problems in life deal with clothes.

12. When they loan you food

I would probably starve without you.

13. When they come back after the weekend

NEVER LEAVE ME AGAIN!

14. When they become your best friend

As long as you are equally respectful, courteous, and open to communication, you and your roommate will work out fine. And if you're lucky, become your BFF.

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.

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.
