Friends who became family.

An Open Letter To My Group of Friends

To The Crew:

After watching all the TV shows and movies, I've always wanted friends who would just come to my house and hangout whenever, sleepover, and go into my fridge as if it was their own. Thank you for being those friends.

It's crazy how I've known some of you guys since we were 12! (and one of you since we were in elementary school!!) It shows how strong our friendship really is and because of this I know we will always be friends. I can't even call you guys friends anymore, you're my family. We even talk about how we'll be the aunts and uncles to each other's children and how they'll all have their own "crew" one day, or how we'll have big dinner parties with all of us and our husbands and wives.

Thank you for being there for me. I know that no matter what, I can go to any one of you and talk to you about anything. You're always there for advice or a shoulder to cry on and I want you to know how grateful I am for that.

Thank you for making me laugh. I can't imagine spending my summer nights laughing 'til I cry with anyone else. Whenever I hangout with you guys, I know I'm in for a night full of laughter and I wouldn't trade that for the world.

Thank you for having my back. I know if anyone ever hurts me, you're all right there behind me, defending me and sticking up for me.

To my girls: I'm so lucky to have a crazy group of girls like you to gossip with and to talk about boys (even our own boys).

And my boys: Thank you for being like big brothers to me and always being there for me for advice from a guys point of view.

I know that as we are growing and parting our separate ways now that we're done with high school, we're making new friends, but I know that no matter what I will always have you guys. I count down the days 'til we can all hangout again!

Each one of you are special to me in your own ways and I know you were each brought into my life for different reasons. All together we make the craziest, strangest but BEST group of friends a girl could ask for.

I'm glad I'm stuck with you guys as my friends who became family and I wouldn't want it any other way. (and yes we're all stuck, I think we all know too much about each other to ever leave!) I can't wait for more crazy adventures and to take on life with all of you by my side. I love you!

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.
