1. Getting yourself to even begin


This is the hardest part. It really takes a lot of motivation. You have to dig deep, but once you start, it's all downhill from there.

2. Looking at the first question and realizing that you're completely screwed

I should just give up now, honestly.

3. Pulling up your internet browser to google the first question

Fingers crossed that we find the entire quiz on Quizlet.

4. AHA! Finding the answer on Quizlet

Is there a better feeling?!

5. Going back to the second question and realizing it's not in the Quizlet that you found

Dear Quizlet, could you please be faithful and have the entire quiz?!

6. Texting your in-class friend to see if they know any of the answers

They don't.That joke where one person answers 74, the other answers 76, and you answer Abe Lincoln? That's you and this friend. It doesn't help that you watch YouTube videos together during class.

7. BS-ing ALL of the answers

Just gotta get some words in the box. That's all.

8. Getting your grades back and acting surprised

But not really.

Now to figure out how to study if you want to improve a little bit on the next one.

9. Going to your professor's office to figure out what you messed up

They know full well that you're on your phone and/or typing on iMessage the entire time, but they suck it up and explain it to you anyway... Because it's their job.

10. Giving up completely and saying "I'll really go for it next semester"

I find myself saying this every semester. We'll get there sooner or later.

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.
