My Most Embarrassing Story

When I started my first semester at Penn State I was like 20 years old and a transfer student. I used to go to the library and do my homework. I studied for my exams and did my papers. Still, when you do so much work you need free time, by that, I mean that you must find something that makes you content and makes you be liberated by your mind and soul. Since I only had like two or three friends I stayed a lot in my dorm. I was so bored but I remembered that I had a karaoke. I love music and everything about it music makes me feel free. Just being able to dance music or sing music makes me content.

So what I would do every Saturday when my roommate was not there is I would start to sing.

I would rap or sing and I didn't care because in my head I am like people are probably you know busy and probably not in their dorms. I would sing and sometimes when I would be homesick I would sing and cry. If you know Rascal Flatts, I would sing God Bless The Broken Road. I would sing Adele about depressing relationships that didn't occur. I would sing Cardi B to remind myself that I am it, I would some classic rock, Spanish music, and rock music sometimes.

One day when I had the worst week ever. I couldn't wait for my Saturday karaoke session as I was belting Neyo so sick I hear a knock on my door. I was surprised and scared I know that I didn't order GrubHub for my wings yet, so I wondered maybe it's my roommate. So I asked who is it and it was my neighbor. My neighbor came and told me that she had to go to work and that if I could stop yelling. She said can you sing a little quieter and I just wanted to hide my face inside of my pillow.

I showered and then I went to sleep and then I wondered damn karaoke was my outlet I was also afraid to sing now that I got my karaoke sesh shut down. Turns out I joined a karaoke club at Penn State and got kicked out lol. It is like karaoke and I have a weird relationship. I love to sing for fun and I don't care I sing while I shower and wash the plates. I love music because music takes me to many different places. I love to be able to express myself and to be happy.

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.

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.
