The 18 Texts We Inevitable Send Mom While Off At College

1. "I'm so hungry I'm gonna die."

Having to walk across the street or even just right next door to get food becomes a major inconvenience during exam season. You really start craving home food.

2. "How do you make instant rice?"


It should be extremely simple but it is so easy to mess up.

3. "I think I burned my instant rice."

Remember what I said about it being easy to mess up?

4. "Can you send me a picture of my dog?"

*cries once you see it because she's the most precious creation ever."

5. "Go look at my Insta - I hugged a giraffe today."

No joke. This is a text I sent my mom two weeks ago. College is weird.

6. "Gosh - Did you know adulting is just fixing other people's mistakes?"

She did. She did know this. She's been trying to illustrate this exact concept to me for years. Sorry?

7. "I LOVE YOU SO MUCH"

8. "This dog just came on my bus and it's sitting on my foot and I'm in love."

Of course, you have to update her on the best moment of the semester.

9. "OMG I have a story to tell you CALL ME."

10. "All my friends are obsessed with you now..."

My mom is the coolest so this probably doesn't apply to everyone but it is ridiculously true in my life. Everyone loves my mom because she deserves it - she's the best. EVER.

11. *sends so many dorky pictures and gifs*

A Lot of them are from "The Goldbergs" because we freaking love Bev Goldberg.

12. "I fell out of bed last night - Oops"

Once again, 100% real text I sent her two weeks into this semester.

13. "How would I know if I have a concussion?"

This was a direct result of #12 and just so you know.....I did have a concussion. Freshman Pro-tip: If you sleep like an octopus and loft your bed, put the bed-rail on.....TRUST ME!

14. "BIG NEWS ALERT!!"

15. "Has my dog done anything funny today?"

My dog falls out of bed almost as often as I do!

16. "Have you been told how awesome you are today?"

You should have. You are incredibly awesome.

17. "I miss you so much."

18. "See you tomorrow, pretty lady! Gonna give you the biggest hug."

The only thing better than mom texts are mom hugs.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
