An Open Letter To My College Friends

Thank you to my college friends

To my ladies you know who you are I just wanted really quickly to thank you for being you. But don’t let this go to your heads.

It took me some time to find my group at school, maybe thats because I commute or maybe its because I love my friends from high school so much I didn't think I had room in my life for any more people, well I do so your welcome.

Thank you for making me feel bigger than my high school self. It was a rough time for me, but you made me realize I am not that person anymore. I am bigger than that girl and I have much more to offer the world.

Thank you for eating with me, its nice to have people to eat a meal with and talk about my day. Doing the eating alone thing fricken sucked so Im glad I have ya'll.

Thank you for reminding me to do things/doing them for me because if it wasn't for you guys I probably would have forgotten to sign up for advisement, whoops.

Thank you for trying to teach me what I didn't learn in class because my professors an buttmuncher.

Thank for you forcing me to step out of my comfort zone. It was so easy for me to commute from Long Island to Brooklyn everyday and never see anything but the same 5 blocks, but you pushed me to see more and explore our beautiful New York City campus, and even become more involved at school. You know you’re the reason I’m writing for the Odyssey now.

And finally thank you for being there, even though I have my high school friends its nice to have a group of girls who are dealing with the same things as me in school. Its nice to be able to look up in class and mouth “What the fuck is going on” during a lecture that I have no idea whats happening in.

So thanks ladies, keep being your beautiful wonderful bougie selves. XOX

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.
