10 Times 'The Office' Perfectly Described Senior Year Of High School
NBC Universal

It is an invisible affliction. A type of pain that cannot be seen, but can be felt. Tommy stops showing up to Physics class. You stop bringing your backpack to class. Your life has become a reflection of Kevin's chili explosion and Andy's Costa Rica mid-life crisis all in one. You're suffering from senioritis; there is no known cure.

Even the parts of senior year that you're supposed to enjoy seem like a hassle. Ever wonder how a show can so perfectly describe your feelings? Michael Scott has done it again; here are 10 times the Office understood exactly how I was feeling during my senior year.

1. You're 18, so you should have your life together, right?

The stability of my life in a picture.

2. Rolling up to class 25 minutes late

That's if you even bother to show up.

3. "Who are you taking to prom?"

It's 2018. Maybe I'll take my dog to prom?

4. "Where are you going to college?"

Haha. If only I knew.

5. 2nd Semester classes? How bout nah.

Don't ask if I did my homework. The answer is no.

6. Thinking about graduation

If only the day could come sooner!

7. The thought of leaving all your gfrands behind

I wonder what life will be like when my best friend isn't just a few streets away.

8.Figuring out where you're going to college

And let's celebrate!!

9. Wondering if you reallyyy need to bring your backpack anymore

The answer is no. All I need is a pair of earphones, right?

10. Realizing that this is the last year you'll ever have to take gym

Can I get an BOOYAH! It's not like I ever went to gym anyway...

And a bonus gif because seeing Dwight in multiple wigs definelty relates to your

senior year, right?

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.

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.
