25 Things I'd Rather Do With My College Tuition

That money's going somewhere, just not where I want it to.

It's no secret that college is expensive, like REALLY expensive. If you add all the semester's worth of tuition that you are paying and how many years of school you are going for, you'll realize that this ungodly amount of money, going towards a "fine" education, is bizarre and makes me want to have a heart attack.

I mean, just imagine where all that money could be going towards. Imagine what you would rather do with that money. College can't be this expensive, right? Well the answer is yes and it will continue to stay that way, but let's look at some things we would much rather do with that money for humor's sake.

1. Food

Need I say more?

2. Much needed vacations

3. That dream Ferrari, yo

4. An apartment/house

You can finally get out of your parent's house. It's not like they weren't pretty close to kicking you out anyway.


5. Charity

For those of you that have a giving heart. (As you should).

6. Study abroad trips

7. You can finally pay back all those people you owe money to

8. Concerts. SO MANY CONCERTS!

9. Billssssss

Because part of the reason you are broke is for this reason.

10. Coachella!

You can finally become a basic b*tch.

11. Help the homeless

12. Funding environmental projects

13. Meet your favorite celebrity

14. Get plastic surgery/ make over

Get that dream booty, though.

15. SHOPPING SPREE B*TCH

16. More billssss

17. Buy more Apple products

Because I'm sure the iPhone Z will be coming out soon.

18. Play the lottery

19. See the seven wonders of the world

20. Go to a strip club

You got them dollas, you can make them boys holla!

21. Start your own business

22. BOOOZE

23. A private jet

24. Even more bills

The only way you get out of this is if you die... not a bad idea.

25. Gamble and drink all your money away because you're a broke college kid that will never have all this money and will forever stay depressed and constantly think of dropping out every second of everyday.

See? All these wonderful things we could do with our money, but we're stuck going into debt for a "needed" education. Too bad none of us will experience most of these things, unless you marry rich. But stay positive! Anything is possible (or so they say).

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.
