Final Weeks Of The Semester As Told By Spongebob Squarepants
Odyssey

I know I'm not the only one figuratively drowning in classwork, stress and agony during these final weeks of the semester. With Thanksgiving Break around the corner and the last day of the semester just a few weeks away, I am crumbling to pieces. The excessive workload is really getting to me and I am up to my ears in projects and papers. How am I even going to have time to study for finals after all of this?! Ah, the struggles of being a hardworking, dedicated college student. Honestly, I feel like Spongebob Squarepants. I feel like I am never ever going to get through this semester, just like how he never finishes boating school. Here is how the cast of Spongegbob would be handling the dreadful last weeks of the semester:

1. When Professors Give an Unnecessary Amount of Classwork

It's honestly as if these professors don't realize how much other work we have in the rest of our classes too! Three papers in one class, a research project in the other, and a billion other things to do in the rest of your classes!

2. When Professors Say The Test Is Going To Be Easy

Ever go into a test feeling super confident, only to realize that what the professor said is a lie? That test wasn't easy, it was more difficult than fighting an Alaskan Bull Worm, am I right?

3. Studying For a Test and You Have No Prior Knowledge of the Material

This sounds like a lot of HOOPLA to me!

4. When All Your Friends Seem To Be Handling the Semester So Well and They Rub Their Beautiful Stress-free Lives in Your Face

Do not tell me to relax. I don't have time!

5. When Your Professor is Less Than Satisfied with Your Project

That project that you thought you'd get an 'A' on for sure, but the professor says, "NOPE."

6. The Papers

Page minimums will probably be the sole reason for my demise.

7. Lack of Sleep

Lying awake in the middle of the night because you have so much on your mind, whether it be project due dates and deadlines, homework, finals, remembering to breathe...

8. Desperately Trying to Finish the Semester but You Have No More Willpower or Strength to Continue

You're almost there! Hang in there, friends.

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.
