The First Two Days of the Semester, As Told By Michael Scott

The first week back to college is a whirlwind of emotions and experiences, so check out the twenty things that are bound to happen if you go to TCNJ.

1. Seeing all of your friends after a LONG summer Break

2. Going out with your friends the first night like old times

3. Drinking too much the first night and instantly regretting your decision

4. Realizing you have to get your shit together for the first day of class

5. So you try to go to the bookstore and get your books that you need, but then you see the long line and you are like

6. Then, you go to Canvas and try to see if your professors have put any syllabi up (but they haven't)

7. Since you can't be productive, you decide to go out AGAIN #dage

8. And again, you regret your decision to go out

9. You walk into your first class and see that boy that you don't talk to anymore

10. Your professor shows up and FINALLY hands out the syllabus

11. The professor starts teaching ON THE FIRST DAY

12. Class is over!!!


13. Going from class to the library and seeing all the excited freshman walking around

14. Okay, library time. Let's try to understand today's class

15. Spending 5 minutes and giving up hope for the rest of the semester


16. Hearing about the Club Fair and getting all of the free stuff clubs give out, so you don't have to do school work

17. Rolling up to the library again after procastinating for 5 hours

18. Looking at Canvas and seeing that ALL of your syllabi are up!?!

19. You immediately begin stressing out, as you wonder how you are gonna get through the semester

20. However, you realize that all of your friends are on the same boat, so you know that it will be a good semester as long as they got your back

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.
