If you're a fan of A Walk To Remember's, Mandy Moore, and Gilmore Girls', Milo Ventimiglia, I highly suggest watching the both of them in the new anticipated dramedy This Is Us. A TV show created by the same people who created the wonderful comedy Crazy, Stupid, Love. A show about many stories that intertwine with each other.

When I saw it the first time, I did not know that the stories connected. However, when I watched it again, I really understood the stories. The first thing er learn is that Jack and Rebecca a married couple is expected triplets. But they lose a baby during the delivery. Next, we meet Randal who finds his birth father who left him at a fire station when he was just a baby. Then we meet Kate and Kevin who are brother and sister. Kevin is an actor who hates his job and who is trying to find his way in life. His sister Kate, is struggeling to lose weight.

By the end of the pilot, you understand everything that happened in the episode. Jack and Rebecca had three children: Kate and Kevin, and they adopted Randal. The timing of the stories that all connect and the stories you see, are in the past (when the kids were babies and Jack and Rebecca were new parents) but the characters Kate, Kevin, Randal, and Jack all have the same birthday and Kate, Kevin and Randall's 36th birthday is present time and Jack and Rebecca's stories is in past time. The triplets stories are present time. I loved watching this show. Its very heartwarming and relatable. Its emoitional and real. I'm excited to see what happens in this show. If you're looking for a new show to watch, I highly reccommend This Is Us.

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.

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.
