5 Thoughts Everyone Has When They Come Back From Break

I miss spring break so much.

Spring break is an incredible time that provides students with a much-needed break in the semester. However, returning to the reality of school can be seriously difficult. In the one week I was away, it feels like all my teachers made a pact to give out more work, tests, and papers than ever before. Plus I had about 60 unread emails that I really, probably should have already responded to.

Bottom line, I am seriously missing my break.

So, if you are like me, you are feeling these all too real spring break blues.


1. Forgot how to study

Only away from the library for a very short period of time, but I always feel like I cannot study post break. It's like my brain got so used to doing nothing, it is shocked when I actually have to focus again.


2. OVEREATING

Break is over, and that means your spring break diet is too! Can be both a good and bad thing. You are eating everything you want, but sort of feel really sick at the same time.


3. Getting sick

Not sure why this happens, but I always think people get a cold when they come back to school. Probably because living conditions aren't always the cleanest.


4. TOO much work

Midterms somehow end up being the week before and the week after break. Really rude if you ask me!


5. Low-key really happy

Spring break is great. You get to relax, see family and friends. But, really who doesn't love coming back to see your school friends and hear all about what they did when you were apart?


So, spring break, I really miss you, but I'll be okay!

Welcome back to reality everyone!

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.
