To The Boys Who Went For My Sister... And Then Me.

I never understood why you went for her when you could have easily had me.

To The Boys Who Went For My Sister... And Then Me.
My Navi Woman

Hello again.

Yes, I'm the younger one and no, I will not give you my sisters number. Why? Maybe because you are my age and she's two years older than you are and hello yeah I'm here too. This became my outlook on dating and my sister, which really sucked.

I don't mean to be... well... mean, but let's be real with each other. I never understood why you went for her when you could have easily asked me out. For years I envied my older sister and was forever jealous of her good looks, charm, and never ending pit of guys at her disposal.

The sad thing about this is that I put the blame on you and my sister and for that I am sorry. It wasn't ever about you or her it was about me. Was it shallow and cowardly of you to ask me for my own sisters number? Yes. It was however, very immature to hate her for what you were doing.

Eventually you'll come back to me after she rejects you because you are my age and not older (or for some other reason like not having the balls to go and ask her yourself) you'll come back to me and start flirting so you can maybe get a taste what it would be like to go out with her.

I just want you to know that as flattered as I am to be 'the other one' I am not going to humor you. I deserve better, and you are no longer getting between me and my sister who is now my best friend.

So really I just want to say thank you to the boys who went for my sister...then me. Thank you for showing me that my sister is beautiful in her way and I am beautiful in mine and together we make one hell of a team.

If you come and ask me for her number I will gladly give it to you if you seem like her type because even if you don't have the balls to ask her yourself, at least you have good taste in women.

Sincerely,

The Other One

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.
