To My Forever Best Friend

We don't have to talk every day to stay close.

To My Forever Best Friend

Dear Best Friend,

When we first met, I had no idea how much you would mean to me one day. You've seen me at my best, as my number one fan cheering me on. You've been there at my worst(s). Shout out to break ups and the day after my 21st birthday. But they've got nothin' on us.

My favorite part about us? We don't have to talk every singe day to stay close. I know I can call you at any time of the day, especially at 2 am when the world seems to be ending, and you'll always answer and talk to me until everything is okay. If we go awhile without seeing each other, we catch up in a matter of seconds and I love that.

You can tell me right away when I'm wrong or being dramatic. When I have (weekly) panic attacks, you can put things in perspective like nobody else. You know right away when something is wrong, and I am all too familiar with that look on your face right as you're about to cry. When I ask you, "Please tell me I'm not crazy," you lie and say I'm not.

You're always up for a glass of wine or a movie night. We usually end up eating all of the cookie dough before we can bake any cookies, but we still have the best time. When it comes to boys, we get a little protective of each other, as we should be. We need each other's approval because they most definitely have to pass the test. I respect your opinion more than anyone, and you always ask me for mine.

When one of us is without the other, people always give us a weird look and ask where the other is. It always makes me laugh and I think to myself, "Yeah, still no new friends." Regaedless, there's not a day that goes by I don't thank God for putting you in my life.

You're my future bridesmaid, my right-hand woman, and the best friend I could ever ask for. You know me better than I know myself, and for that I am forever grateful. Thanks for your hugs, your funny texts, and most importantly, for being you. Oh, and for loving my dog as much as I do (almost). Here's to all of the memories we've made and the millions to come. You know you love us - XOXO,

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.
