1. You get to help people

There are so many people out there that would love to help people, if that's you then the medical field is such a good place to be. There are so many different professions out there that can help so many different people!

2. Making a difference

In the medical field, you get to meet so many new people and help them out for their future. You show them that you actually care and the patients see that you are doing your best to give them exactly what they deserve.

3. Always learning

This isn't a career where you just learn stuff in school and work daily. Yes you'll be working, but you get to learn everyday on the job, you'll learn different things about people and how somethings work for some but not for others. You'll learn daily.

4. Many opportunities

Many opportunities

Like I said before there are sooo many different career opportunities in this field. Doctors, nurses, ultrasound techs, x-ray techs, and sooo much more. Find something that interest you and pursue it!

5. Scrubs

Honestly they feel like pajamas and who wouldn't love going to work everyday feeling comfy??

6. Job security

There will always be a need for people in this field because everyone will always need health services. Finding a job that will always be needed in the future can be hard, but you can't go wrong with this.

7. Travel Opportunities

In the medical field, there are so many opportunities to travel. You can be the one to go help people all over the country or even the world.

8. Always a challenge

These jobs involve patient care, and not every patient is happy to be there or are in severe pain. They won't always be the nicest people ever so you have to be a people person, at least at your job.

9. You may get to save someones life

I know, you weigh the options. You may not want to be in the medical field because of the "in case someone dies". But that's how life works, and imagine all the people you could save getting into this field. Saving someones life can have a major impact on your life that you'll forever be thankful for.

10. You know what you want

Going into the medical field is like a calling. Don't do it for the money, when choosing a job/career you need to find something you will enjoy doing the rest of your life. Make sure you get it right!

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.

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.
