For those of you who don't know, Troy University has recently begun building a brand new fancy fitness center for its students, which is awesome, BUT this brand new fancy fitness center is being built in what is referred to as the Sartain parking lot. This might not sound like a big deal, it might even seem like I should stop complaining and just be happy that we are getting a new facility in the first place, but on a campus that already had limited parking available to its students who commute...the parking lot was a blessing. So, as I pulled into campus on Monday morning spending an estimated 20 minutes trying to find a parking spot, I began thinking of all the things I'd rather be doing.

1. Have to deal with spring allergies all year long 

2. Have a 7 a.m. class

3. Be forced to mop my floors every single day for the rest of my life 

4. Stub my toe at least 4 times daily

5. Trip in front of a group of hot guys

6. Be forced to watch Nascar

7. Eat only unsalted crackers for a month straight

8. Have a stranger touch me

9. Get a full body wax

10. Eat a vomit flavored Bertie Botts Jelly Bean

11. Walk a mile on Legos

12. Listen to someone say "like" after every word

13. Have to eat a flavored bug

14. Do leg day every day

15. Use a port-a-potty

16. Get a paper-cut between my fingers

17. Pull out of a drive-thru then figure out they got my order wrong.

18. Watch the episode of "Grey's Anatomy" where McDreamy dies

19. Go through a cavity search

20. Be forced to listen to 10 guys 'mansplain' something to me 

21. Spill coffee on my favorite white jeans 

22. Bite my tongue at least once each day 

23. Cancel my Netflix membership

24. Try to pee while wearing a romper

25. Get scratched by a cat

26. Use 1-ply tissue paper

27. Have someone try to talk to me when I have my headphones in

28. Hand wash all of my clothes

29. Listen to someone talk about Trump v. Hillary

30. Anything. Literally anything else.

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.

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.
