A Thank You To My Housemates On Graduation

"We may not have it all together, but together we have it all"-unknown

To my beautiful, crazy, loving housemates (both past & present)-

Thank you. We've been at each others side since freshmen year of college and now we're ending our senior year together, graduating at each others side. I couldn't think of a more supportive group of people to experience college alongside. There are too many memories to write about, but I hope you look as fondly back at them as I do.

The weeks of "proper" friendship didn't last long, and soon we were acting like our weird, unique selves around each other. Around all of you, I feel like I can be myself, and my true self, without judgement. Thank you for that. And I feel grateful to have seen your true selves, and I think the world of you all.

The times I'm going to remember most about college are the ones where we all just sat around together, talking and laughing and sharing jokes with each other. I'm going to remember snuggling in bed with you guys to watch the latest Grey's episode or the Disney movie that was on TV. I'm going to remember all the times we laughed until our sides hurt. Thank you for sharing your humor with me when I needed it most.

The perks of going to a small school really paid off, because I got to know and befriend all of you the very first year. Thank you for letting me stand by you on your journeys to becoming college graduates. It has been an honor I can never repay.

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.
