Happy spring semester, people! I am here to give you some tips for you to make it through — because it is not as easy as fall semester was.

1. Stay on top of it.

I know that it can be rough to do so, but you had a semester to get a hang of how college works, or at least this year is going to work for you. Don't become a victim of procrastination again.

2. Go to your classes!

It may seem as if you don't have to go as much, but trust me you do not want to get behind because you did not go. You already have that time scheduled out for yourself to go, so do it.

3. Make some time to relax.

There are not as many breaks in the spring as there is in the fall, so ensure that you are taking time for yourself to not feel burnt out.

4. Plan ahead.

Do not wait until the end of the semester to start those end of semester projects again. You do not have "ample" time at the end of the semester, start working on this now (and actually work on it, don't just look at the assignment).

5. STUDY BEFORE THE NIGHT BEFORE YOUR EXAM.

Enough said.

6. Branch out and be involved on campus, or in your community.

If you didn't do it during the fall — or did do it — don't forget to stay involved and branching out. You never know the connections you can make through an organization.

7. Do not give up.

No matter how bad fall semester was, or how much you do not want to be where you are, you are there. Do not give up, and push yourself.

8. Lastly, get rest.

Put the all-nighters aside, and make sure you get some sleep to ensure your health won't slip away.

You got this. Believe in yourself. Spring semester will be the best one for you yet.

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.
