To My Friends From High School

"I will always remember those high school memories."

To My Friends From High School

To my high school friends,

Some of you were only temporary and some of you will be my lifelong friends. But no matter which one you were, you were apart of my life for a reason.

To the ones that were temporary, well, we probably had some falling out over a guy or just didn't stay in touch. Sometimes people just grow apart and it sometimes it is for the better. But overall, I wish you the best and hope that you get what you want out of life.

To the ones that stayed by my side for all four years, thank you and I love you. Let's not reflect on how we awfully dressed freshmen year or how we didn't know how to apply the right amount of make up. Instead, let's look at how we have grown.

We walked into our little high school scared as can be. Nervous we weren't going to find our classrooms or that we may run into a senior. But as time went on we weren't those little scared kids anymore because we found each other.

Through the next three years, we experienced every emotion there could be. From love, to heartache, to pure joy from finding out we got into our dream colleges. These events wouldn't have been possible without you. There were times when we had our ups and downs but that was normal for all teenage girls.

When graduation day came, it came quick, and I knew that our high school friendship was just the beginning to a long life of laughter. We were filled with emotion from happiness that we made it through the past four years, to sadness that we wouldn't be together like we had been for the next four that lied ahead.

You girls will always be apart of my life. The distance between us just brings us closer. I know that you're only a phone call or FaceTime call away. I'm not worried that we will lose our friendship because I know we wouldn't be able to live without each other. We have watched each other become the best versions of ourselves we can be, because we helped each other grow.

I will always love you and I will always remember those high school memories, from the best one to the ones we wish we could forget.

Love you

AI music threatens creativity

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

Humans and robots face off in a rock band battle with guitars and drums, under dynamic lighting.
StableDiffusion

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.
