To The Friend I'm Not Friends With Anymore

You were supposed to be my Brooke Davis.

Dear Ex-Best Friend,

I know we aren't really considered friends anymore. We follow each other on Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter but we never actually talk. We might comment on each others posts every once in a while but it's just us being nice. It's been a while since we actually talked. You know, how we used to. How we used to lay on the floor in your bedroom blast some Jonas Brothers or Miley Cyrus, and cry over stupid boys (no really why did I let you cry over him?). Somedays I think about you and how you are. Some of the most random things will remind me of our friendship. Whether you show up on my TimeHop or some random show we used to watch at 3 A.M. comes on.

You were my best friend. I know things change and we definitely changed. There were days where I didn't even know how to talk to you because I could feel us drifting apart. I'm hoping you felt it too. We had our friends we made at college. It was so strange to me that people I met in just a few weeks became closer to me than you and I ever were. But maybe that just showed that I didn't need to be stuck in a friendship with someone who seemed to not care.

You began to bully me over the stupidest things. You didn't care that I was off to college, making great friends and memories that'll last. You weren't happy for me at all. Even though we were going through the same transition. You were off to college too, making great friends and memories that'll last. But for some reason you always got mad when I was hanging out with my college friends. You could've been happy for me as I was for you.

Maybe our drifting apart was going to happen all along. As much as we wanted to be each others bridesmaid, and how you were suppose to be my Brooke Davis. Maybe a life long friendship for us just wasn't in the cards. It's sad that we spent so much time together and now if someone asks me what you're up to my only answer is "uh." No matter how many stupid fights we had, or that I don't know what you're doing today. I'll always care. I'll always miss the good times we had.

Maybe one day we'll meet up somewhere and talk about that stupid boy you cried over, or about the parties we went to. We'll laugh and smile about the good times in our friendship. We might only keep up to date on each other via social media now. But maybe it's for the best.

You'll always be my Brooke Davis.

Love,

Your Ex-Bff

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.
