Thoughts While Studying For Finals As Told By 'Shameless'
huffingtonpost.com

Finals, the absolute worst part of the semester. I think that is pretty unarguable, don't you? There is no type of stress comparable to those late nights of cramming, and struggling to keep your eyes open with espresso after espresso. And then, just to top it off, even the exams you thought would be a piece of cake end up looking like a foreign language that you've never seen when you actually get the test in your hands! The good news is, the week before actual finals happen, the week that is filled with torturous, endless hours of studying that feel infinite is almost over. Now, we just need to actually take them, hopefully do well, and then move on to our much-needed winter break! But, until then, here is a little day-maker for all my "Shameless" fans out there. These guys definitely know all about that little thing we call stress while we are trying to study, and they pretty much can read our minds on this one.

First thing is first, Coffee!

Wait, I have a philosophy final?! I don't even know what philosophy is.

Okay, I am really going to focus now. *gets distracted again.*

Alright, I got this. I can do it if I believe I can! *gets all 16 practice problems wrong* Looks like its going to be a christmas tree kind of final for me.

Hmm, I wonder if it's too late to change my major? Maybe drop out?

This professor actually wants to ruin me...and my GPA.

Ok, ok, back to the practice problems. *30 minutes passes* Alright, maybe i'll just skip to number 2.

Wow, it's been an hour already? Time for a break! ...and a cookie?

Maybe I'll just move onto that online quiz I have to do. I'll definitely know the answers to those problems.

*Tries to do #1* ... *immediately goes on Coursehero or Quizlet*

Ok, maybe I just need another coffee...or 10 drinks. What's the difference at this point, anyways?

Its 5 o'clock already?!

Let me just calculate all my grades to see how bad I can do on my finals and still pass my classes.

Thinking back to the good days when you had a high GPA and just wishing you took the time to really appreciate that beauty

...and the sun is setting.

Eh, I'll just do it tomorrow.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

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.
