Summer As Told By "The Office"

Summer As Told By "The Office"
NBC

Summer is one of the most magical things to ever happen to any student. I live for summer break. Another thing I live for is "The Office." During my last semester of high school I spent most of my time watching "The Office" in my classes. So, I decided to let the characters of the show tell you a little about summer.

1. The first day of summer.

We all know the amazing feeling that comes along when school is let out for the summer.

2. When you see people from school.

Seeing people from school over the summer is super awkward so when you actually do see them in public you do everything in your power to hide and get away from them.

3. Making plans.

Although you miss seeing your friends, you always fall into a slump of laying on your couch and binge watching TV shows on Netflix and you really would rather not move.

4. Your summer appetite.

I'm not sure what it is about summer, but it seems like you're constantly hungry so you literally cannot stop eating and you don't even care.

5. Laying out and trying to get tan, but burning yourself to a crisp instead.

All anyone wants is to have that perfect summer tan. We think that by laying out for an hour without sunscreen will do the trick but all it does is turn you into a lobster. 10/10 would not recommend... ever.

6. Seeing your friends after a long time.

After we get out of our binge watching Netflix slump and finally accept or make plans, it's super exciting to see your friends.

7. When there is absolutely nothing to do.

Not everyday is going to be exciting but there are some days that are more boring than others. Like the days when you've finished the show you were watching and can't find another one. Or when it's raining and you can't do anything outside.

8. The last day of summer.

The last day of summer is always the worst. It's the last day of freedom and you want to have as much fun as possible because going back to school the next day is going to be horrible. It has finally sank in that you can no longer lounge around the pool all day or binge watch a TV show on Netflix for 12 hours straight.

I'm not superstitious, but... I'm a little-stitious. -Michael Scott

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.
