To all the single college girls this Valentine's Day-

This Valentine's Day, do not feel sorry for yourself because you are single. Being single on Valentine's Day is not a big deal at all. Just because you don't have a boyfriend or significant other, it does not mean you aren't loved.

You are loved by so many people. You are loved by your mom, dad, sisters, brothers, and friends. You do not need a boyfriend to feel loved this Valentine's Day because love is not limited to a boyfriend.

Being loved by friends and family is a different kind of love. Your friends and family care about you and love you for who you are. They appreciate you and want you to know they love you. You should also express your love for them this Valentine's Day.

The time will come and you will look back one day and think, "why did I ever stress about not having a boyfriend on Valentine's Day?". Because one day you will find your true love in life (it WILL happen). For the time being, don't be sad because you don't have a Valentine, because your time will come.

It's also important to be happy for your friends and family that do have a special valentine. Don't make fun of them for going all out on Valentine's Day with all their heart shaped candies, teddy bears, and flowers. Show your happiness for a friend in love.

You can celebrate Valentine's Day too. Have a Gal-entine's Day with your single friends. Treat yourself and get a heart shaped pizza, each some chocolate, and share a laugh with your best friends. Remember that you are beautiful and loved and it really isn't a big deal to not have a valentine.

Love yourself this V-day!!!

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.
