After close to a month of holiday celebrations, downtime, and family bonding, a new semester is both a reluctant and welcome fresh start. What better way to describe the transition from a winter break spent in your childhood home to a move back to your college town than with the greatest 90s babies to grace television?

1. When all of the holiday hype is over and the decorations are taken down

2. Meanwhile, your bank account is still recovering from Christmas shopping

3. You finally realize that you registered for an 8 am course

4. What it feels like to pay Spring tuition

5. When that financial aid refund hits your bank account

6. Then you pay for rent plus additional expenses and realize you're still broke

7. You start getting excited about seeing your college friends again

8. Then you realize you'll have to get along without you mom's home cooking

9. You attempt to pack your entire bedroom into a suitcase

10. You have to say goodbye to your pet soon...

11. And the younger siblings don't understand why you have to leave

12. Then the syllabi notifications start popping up

13. And you have a pre-semester anxiety breakdown in front of the family

14. You promise yourself that your study habits are going to be different this semester

15. And that you will be dressing up for class every day

16. But most importantly, that you will be spending more time with your ride or die(s)

Here's to a great Spring semester!

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.
