Open Letter To My Boyfriend
Meridith

Dear darling,

Throughout my high school life, I was always the third wheel or the single pringle that was never ready to mingle. I always felt too awkward to have a boyfriend. I wasn't ready, and I knew I wasn't. Sure, I had my crushes, but they all ended in heartbreak. I was that girl to roll my eyes at other's relationships, and I would always scoff and turn my head the other direction. I regret being that girl, because now I completely understand.

Not only are you my loving boyfriend, but you're also my amazing best friend. You’re the first person to know what is going on in my life, whether it’s good news, or bad news. You're my shoulder to cry on, and I know you will always be there to reassure my life will be okay. You're always the one to root for me and encourage me in everything I do. I know I can count on you to pick me up. I can be myself around you and I know you wouldn't think of me any differently. You always make me feel beautiful everyday, no matter if I'm rocking sweats or wearing no makeup.


Your laugh is contagious. There’s not a day with you when I don't laugh. We’re always joking and having a great time. Your silly puns will always brighten up my day, no matter how ridiculous or corny they are. Your cheesy sense of humor is one of my favorite things about you, and when I'm down with the blues, you know exactly how to lighten up my mood!

One of my favorite qualities about you is how driven you are. You're such a hard worker, and you're determined to achieve your goals. You motivate me to work harder at my job and to worker harder in my studies. You always push me to my full potential. You've taught me so much about dedication, and how to be the very best version of myself.

I know the future holds so many wonderful plans for us. Everyday, we experience new things together. We will always have new adventures to share. We will always have many opportunities to make great memories together. I can't imagine my life without you. Everyday, I fall in love with you more, and everyday, I realize how thankful I am for you. You're the light of my life, and I love you to pieces!

Love always,

Meridith

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.
