To My BFF Who's Still In High School
Sydney Eisenberg

As the school year winds down, I felt that it was an appropriate time to write an open letter to my best friend who is still in high school. Yes, I have written something before to all of the current high school seniors, but this is a little different...

To My BFF Who's Still in High School,

As your senior year is winding down, I want you to know that you are living the best year yet. Yes, college is new and exciting but, there's nothing like your last year in high school.

We've been close ever since I could remember. When I was in eighth grade, you were in seventh and we cheered together. From that time, I knew that we were going to be so close forever. I consider you to be my little sister and I'm here for you through everything. From boy drama, to unnecessary friend drama, we've seen and talked about it all. Something that is extremely important for you to know is that I will be there for you past high school, past college, and through it all. I can't imagine my life without you.

Seeing you over breaks whenever I'm home from school is probably one of my favorite things. We always have the best times together whether we're going all the way to the mall just for Starbucks when there's one right by my house, going out to eat, or just talking about random things and catching each other up on our lives. Oh, and not to mention Instagram help!!

Thank you for being one of the best friends and sisters a girl could ask for. I consider a few of my close friends my sisters, (because by blood, I have none) and I'm so happy and lucky to be able to call you one. Thank you for turning a bad day into a good one from over 2,000 miles away. Thank you for keeping in touch with me while I'm in college. Thank you for keeping an eye on my brother at school and for being another sister to him. Thank you for being there for me through literally everything. But most importantly, thank you for being you. You have no idea how special you are to me!!

High school is a time where you start figuring out who you are and who you want to be in life. I know for a fact that you are setting yourself up for success already. You're smart, generous, kind, amazing, genuine, down to earth, I could really go on for a really long time. I'm so lucky to have someone like you in my life.

With your time left in high school, I want you to reach for the stars, go beyond your limits, and be the best and happiest version of yourself. Hang out with your friends as often as you can and forget any drama that may be happening right now. Take in this time because next year, you won't realize how much you'll miss it.

I love you beyond and I wish you the best of luck!!!

XOXO,

Syd

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.
