An Open Letter To My Best Friend

Dear Best Friend,

I am going to start this letter out by saying thank you.Thank you for being my positvity in this big world full of negativity. Thank you for having my back in every situation even though I'm wrong sometimes. Speaking of being wrong, thank you for calling me out when I am doing something stupid or when I actually am in the wrong. You help me be the best person I can be when you do that. Thank you for always knowing how to cheer me up when I am sad. But most importantly thank you for being in my life. I love all the fun times we have together. We film ridiculous YouTube videos for hours at a time.We have endless car jam sessions where we scream our favorite music at the top of our lungs. I love those nights where we stay up so late that we are exhausted and delusional and everything we say is hilarious and we both end up with stomach cramps from laughing so hard. One of my favorite things about us is that we can "hang out" and we will do absolutely nothing but just having you there makes it so much better. Everyone gets annoyed with the way we talk to each other but they just don't get our stupid baby voices. You have been adopted into my family and I have been adopted into yours. I would do anything for your mom and siblings and I know you would do the same for mine. Our inside jokes never make any sense to anyone (even us sometimes) but we still bring them up and laugh hysterically. I give you all of my old clothes because I know how fast you get things dirty and I love that. Friendship isn't always easy and we do fight. Life gets in the way and people feel left out and hurt. However, with you it's different. We fight but realize about an hour later that we are both idiots and we need to make up. I don't know where life may take us but I do know that you will always be a big part of my life. Even if that means spending hours on skype and making surprise visits. I couldn't ask for a better best friend. You will always be my person. I love you.

-Sincerly,

Your Best Friend<3

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.
