12 Times 'The Office' Described Summer For College Students
Affinity Magazine

Summer is the perfect time to relax and live stress free for a few months. Time for Netflix, tanning, vacations, and lots of sleep which makes up for all of the all-nighters pulled during the semester at school. Making the transition from living on my own to living under my parents' roof again, summer is a time for change, which can be odd. There's no better way to describe weird summer feelings than the cast of "The Office".

1. Running into old high school classmates you couldn't stand to be around

Four years of high school was more than enough time for us to communicate. If you see me out and about and feel like saying hi.....Don't.

2. Having to get a job because you're so broke it's sad

I have no money to do anything, I have no money to go anywhere. Help me, I'm poor.

3. Seeing how many hours your boss schedules you a week

I have no energy to do anything, I have no time to go anywhere.

(If my boss sees this: JK Anna, I love my job and working at the shop please don't fire me!!)

4. My parents get mad because I never want to get out and do anything

College kicked my butt. All i want to do is catch up on sleep and all of my Netflix series. No, i probably won't leave my room much and yes, I am alive.

5. You can pull up to your old high school and visit

It's great to take some time to reminisce on the best (and worst) years of your life at your good ole' alma mater.

6. Trying to make plans but my friends are all busy

Friend time is the best time. Unless our plans fold and no one can do anything on the rare occasion that I feel like being social.

8. But then the stars align and we're all free to do something together as a squad


Everyone is free to get together and were all united once again. Summer time has it's perks.

9. Realizing you live with your parents again and you can't do whatever you want anymore

What do you mean I can't leave to get Taco Bell at 2 AM??? What are rules? Curfew??

10. When summer is interrupted by school and classes


11. And meanwhile, all I can think about is what I could be doing....

Grind doesn't stop, not even for summer.

12. But even with a few classes, life is great because technically it's still summer


No matter what your summer plans are, enjoy it while you can!

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.
