25 People You Meet On Formal
strengthsinternational

Getting asked on formal is basically equivalent to getting an invite into an entirely different world. One might ask, "What's so crazy about a formal?" But honestly, what isn't crazy about it? At formal, anything is possible. You don't just take a bus to a different city where you all run around like 9-year-olds at Disney World. I'm not saying that isn't what happens, but it's definitely much more than that. Besides the thrill of bus rides and average hotels, the trip is special because of the friends and strangers you spend your time with. Although you don't decide who else will be joining you, you can expect to be on the trip with any and every kind of person. Whether they're your friends, strangers, your roommates, your date, or even you, here are the 25 people that you should expect to encounter on formal:

1) The girl who is never with her date.

2) The couple that is always fighting.

3) The girl who always runs off somewhere.

4) The one who is always sober.

5) The one who is never sober.

5) The girl who knows every single brother.

6) The friend who encourages you to make bad decisions.

7) The girl who is always crying.

8) The girl who spends the entire trip trying to take the perfect Instagram.

9) The girl who can't get along with anyone.

10) The guy who hits on everyone's date besides his own.

11) The girl who doubles as a mom and takes care of everyone.

12) The girl who has to Snapchat everything.

13) The friend who is ready to party at 10 AM.

14) The one who is always eating.

15) The one who will fall asleep anywhere (someone's bed, the grass, a bench).

16) The one who doesn't go here.

17) The guy who blows way too much money.

18) The girl who can't even survive the bus ride.

19) The one who wastes the entire trip in bed doing nothing.

20) The chill and quiet guy that is the life of the party after one drink.


21) The girl that instantly becomes your best friend.

23) The girl who managed to get her entire friend group dates.

24) The guy that sees every weird thing you did all weekend.

24) The girl that bums off of everyone.

25) The guys that split the cost instead of bringing dates.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
