A Thank You Letter To My Person
Kara Hickey

Dear Marisa or as I like to call you, Mersa,

First off, you know this was really hard for me to write because I'm not super sentimental, but I think you deserve to hear big ole' thank you from me. So bare with me, while I probably make you uncomfortable with the amount of love I'm about to give you.

I don't think I tell you often enough that you are an amazing human being. We've only known each other for about three years now, and as cliche as it sounds, it feels like forever. You know everything about me, from the darkest times to the light, and you've stuck by my side. I want to thank you for that. I know I am not the easiest person to deal with, but you've managed to stick around. Thank you for being one of the only people who understands my dark, dry humor. You're the only one I can be truly humorous with about being depressed, and that brings a lot of light into that terrible mental illness. Thank you for doing the exact same thing with me for four months this summer. The nights at Recess and Taco Bell were definitely worth the gas and money because we formed a bond that I don't think will ever be broken.

You've listened to me complain about heartbreak, and how I will never be good enough, but you always remind me that I am. I am eternally grateful for that. You understand me in a way a lot people don't, and that is not easy to find in friendships. Thank you for listening to me tell you the same stories over and over again, and continuing to act surprised on how it ends. Thank you for listening to the exact same playlist this summer, and being the only person to want to listen to dreadfully sad songs right before we go out. Thank you for the adventures that led us to meeting amazing new friends, and for always being down to just to drive around.

Thank you for being the person you are. I am so grateful to have such an amazing person in my life. I appreciate everything you do for me. Thanks for liking all the same stuff as me, and I hope we get abducted by aliens soon. You're the raddest friend out there, and I'm glad you are my person.

Love, Karrot

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.
