Thoughts Every Returning Student Has During Move-In Day As Told By "Parks & Recreation"

Move-In Day. It's a day full of so many emotions and feelings. It can be both one of your favorite days, but also one of the most dreaded at the same time. All of these feelings for me can only be accurately portrayed in one way: through "Parks and Recreation".

Move-In Day is finally here!

So much excitement! So much to do! I AM PUMPED!!!!

I am so happy to be back on campus!

I am like a child on Christmas because I have missed my school so much! Even the parts that I don't like I find charming and am happy to see for a little while.

I should not have packed this much stuff...

The more you pack, the more you need to move. It's just a fact that you seem to always forget until you are moving all of the boxes up stairs.

How did I manage to get this all in here?

I apparently have magical powers because all of this should not have been able to fit into these small boxes.

This is really happening!

Summer felt like it was one minute long! How is it time for classes already?

I am totally ready to be back.

All doubts I had at the beginning is gone, being back is actually the best feeling.

I DON'T WANT MY FAMILY TO LEAVE ME

I had just gotten used to living with them again and getting to see them all the time. Now you want me to leave that? But I will miss them so much!

I am SO excited to set up my room!

My room is going to the Pinterest worthy, and I AM READY!

I GET TO SEE MY FRIENDS AGAIN

Let the adventures begin!!!! I missed them all so much, and this year will just be one gigantic party!

I want everyone to see my room!

All new setup, all new stuff, all new you, so obviously anyone and everyone is invited to come check it out.

My friends are the greatest how did I survive without them?

I missed them all so much, so they must be showered with all of the compliments.

That feeling when you get to relax in your dorm for the first time

At this moment in time, there is no place you'd rather be than your dorm room.

I'm so happy to be back.

It's time to happy dance because being back at school is the actual best.

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.
