The Start of a New Semester as told by The Office

And here we are again. The start of an entire semester ahead of us. The excitement of syllabus week has settled in and the mixed feelings of after syllabus week will take it's toll on us in a blink of an eye. What better way to kick of this semester with a few comical and relatable memes from "The Office"? If you have yet to watch this nothing but fantastic series, I highly recommend watching this show if you need a few laughs.

1) Walking in to the wrong class

If you haven't at least managed to walk in to the wrong class once out of your four or three years, you are simply lying. Maybe you stepped in for 10 seconds or were like me and sat down in the wrong class for an entire five minutes to realize this is not it. Put on that smile and exit embarrassingly with pride.

2) Seeing a friend or familiar face in class

Oh what a feeling of relief it is to walk into class and see someone you know. Now you can complain and cry with someone knowing you're all floating in the same boat.

3) When that one professor hits you with that Chapter one way too soon

Cue the wide eyes and heavy sighs from the entire classroom. We call the first week Syllabus week for a reason right? How about we take ten minutes going over the three absent rule and call it a day?

5) The beginning suddenly becomes the middle

And just like that, you find yourself three quizzes and two projects in.

Happy Syllabus Week

Even if you find yourself swamped with work already or overwhelmed by what is to come, might as well enjoy the calm before the storm. This week will be the least of your worries for the entire semester so go out and have some fun

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.
