11 Reasons I'm Completely And Utterly Obsessed With My Roommate, Even Though We Started Off As Strangers
Provided by Author

I have hit the jackpot of roommates: I met my freshman year roommate randomly on social media, and it actually worked out! After stalking her Instagram and seeing her Kanye and dog photos, I knew it was fate. Here are 11 perks of having the perfect roommate.

1. Waking up from nightmares and having someone to talk to

Especially the ones that are too scary to repeat.

2. Having two closets

3. Family dinner

Going to Market alone is a lonely life.

4. Dancing from each other's beds

This is actually just me.

5. Throwing things at each other across the room

Unfortunately, it's always our phones.

6. Sharing tweets and Instagrams when you’re three feet away

Some vines are too hilarious to not share.

7. Shaving your armpits in the room and other gross habits

All of the gross habits are mine.

8. Seeing each other nude all the time

I swear, she only opens the door when I'm changing.

9. Knowing everything about the boys they’re interested in

And hating them when they f*ck up

10. Taking their drunk ass home (and knowing they’ll do the same for you next weekend)

Walks home through South O are memories that last a lifetime.

11. Crying over "Beauty and the Beast"

The new "Beauty and the Beast" is soft AF.

To everyone worried about finding a roommate, success is possible. I have fallen madly in love with mine. Good luck with your search!

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.
