To My Past, Present And Future Friends
Madeleine Lampert

To my past friends,

For a time, we were as close as two peas in a pod. We talked constantly over text or calls. You were there for me when other friends were being different, when I needed to vent and when boys were more complicated than statistics class. So, this is a thank you. Thank you for making me happy for the time being. I bet we didn't know one day our friendship would end. Even if we drifted apart, ended on bad terms or grew into different people, I am still thankful that I had you in my life. Also, thank you for leading me into the direction of the friends that I have now. I truly believe that God puts people in our lives for a reason. If we don't talk anymore, I hope that you are doing well and that you are happy where your life has taken you.

That leads me to the present friends,

First off, thank you for handling me. College, stressed out, busy, crazy, me. I don't know what I did to deserve friends like you. I am forever grateful for all the memories we have made and continue to make. Thank you for always being there for me through thick and think. Never being more than a phone call or text away. You're amazing. To the friends I have recently met, I hope you continue to stay in my life. You keep college me sane. Thank you for letting me know when I am overthinking or when I need to work my best. To all my present friends, a huge thank you. You make my heart happy.

To my future friends,

I am sure I don't know you yet, but I am excited to have new friends. Maybe we'll be future work friends, or meet somewhere I decide to go with my current friends. I hope you will like my present friends as well, because I sure hope they don't go anywhere. We will probably be friends while in the real world, so here is to us hoping that we can survive it together. Meet up for breakfast before we head to work and talk about about families and future husbands.

To all the friends I have had, have and will have, thank you. Where ever you go in life, know that you will always have a friend in me. I am never more than a phone call away.

Love your friend,

Maddy, Madds, M-Dawg, Cuppicake, Sweetycakes, Love Child, Amy Poehler

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.
