A Letter To My Roommate, Who Happens To Be My Best Friend
Caroline Cook

Dear college roommate/best friend,

There are so many things I want to say to you that would probably be enough to write an entire novel. I want to thank you, tell you how appreciated you are, and let you know you're the best there ever was, is, and will be. I can't even find the words to express how much you mean to me. Your constant patience and kind heart make me wonder how I got so lucky to have someone by my side every day.

Thank you for being the person who can tolerate me enough to actually live with me... (my own family complained about me LOL).

Thank you for always replacing the toilet paper in the bathroom whenever I forget and never getting mad at me for it.

Thank you for letting me lay in your bed and distracting me from homework when I don't want to do it. Thanks for driving me everywhere. Thanks for the constant laughter and the continuous memories we get to share every day. Thanks for being the one I can turn to when I'm upset, happy, sad, mad, excited, anything. You are my go-to person and living just one room away makes it that much more comforting. There are not enough "thank yous" in the world for me to be able to tell you how much I appreciate you and our awesome, crazy, hilarious friendship.

College would not be half as fun without you.

Our fun weekends out are a blast! I love being able to take the stress away from school and have so much fun with my best friend. We can dance, sing, laugh, and enjoy the time we have together. College would be so different without you and to think we are just beginning our journey. The next three years are going to be even better!

Moving away from home and from our friends was scary and extremely nerve-wracking at first. But being able to bring you along for the ride with me made it easier and exciting. Living together has been the best thing that has ever happened to us. We've not only gotten closer but we've become more like sisters.

We understand that we don't have to spend every waking moment together, but we also know that we're both right next door (literally) if we need anything. You are so appreciated and I hope that you never forget it. Thank you for the best years of my life! I wouldn't want to room with anyone else.

Sincerely,

Your forever friend

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.
