Ho-Ho-hold your reindeers, because the signature Starbucks’ red holiday cups are back in business betches. What’s a better way to spread Christmas cheer? Well, Starbucks red cups are here on Nov. 1, with a wonderful bunch of limited-time-only seasonal holiday beverages. Prepare to get your hands on the Winter classic Gingerbread and Eggnog lattes, the popular peppermint mocha, the rich Crème Brulee Late, and the oh-so-yummy Chestnut Praline Latte which made its eminent launch last year. Although we have all been good boys and girls this year, Starbucks decided to be a good kind of naughty and grace us with an early gift this holiday season. A brand new concoction known as the Spicy Flat White will be making its way to stores later this season, although no date has been confirmed and, of course, we have to take in to account that November has just started, I must say that Starbucks is letting it snow all kinds of goodness this season and more to look forward too, am I right?

Just like the Pumpkin Spice Latte is a no-brainer when it comes to fall essentials, The holiday season feels can't start if you don’t have a toasty red holiday cup fixed in hand. I don’t know about you, but I definitely use this celebratory season to wear my favorite knit sweater while surfing Pinterest to find the perfect Gingerbread House layout for my new Instagram victory (#goals), but if you want to jingle bell rock the red cup party with a different tune, you could tweet your thoughts. As a plus, If you tweet using the hashtag #redcup or #Redcups, a tiny little red cup appears like magic which adds a touch of white girl and cute which I am (duh), totally all about.

If that still doesn’t reel you in, use the hashtag #RedCupContest on Instagram for a chance to win a Starbucks eGift card because who wouldn’t want free coffee? Last year competition was high, with red cup pictures being posted every 14 seconds within the first 48 hours of launch, so get on it soon and happy posting y’all!

This year’s cup just like every year has a new look, and I must say, I dig the simplicity:

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.
