My Top 11 Moments During Dorm Wars 2016

It is that time of the semester for Dorm Wars again. Dorm wars is a Lee University tradition in which students living on campus engage in friendly competition to benefit charitable organizations. Dorm Wars is that time of the year we see all the dorms competing against each other through various obstacle courses. This would be my third dorm Wars at Lee University; time has really flown by. Medlin Hall (my dorm) was crowned Champion last year after B.O.B won four years straight. So,last year was really awesome for my Dorm and most especially for the BOYS AND GIRLS club. Medlin Hall came 2nd this year, however, it was really nice and fun competition.

Dorm Wars is always filled with this special type of buzz that brings the whole together. The cheers from different dorms, the chants, and the atmosphere is just incredible and wonderful to be in. The venue is filled with different and wonderful displays created by different dorms. The colors and painted faces from the Dorms creates an extraordinary and beautiful display. The introduction during Dorm Wars is always one to watch out for; from acrobatic displays to music throwbacks to dubstep dances. Dorms come together to compete for their charity organizations of thier choosing, so DORM Wars is not just a competition, it is one that fights for a cause in Cleveland. Lee University uses DORM WARS to support and help charities in Cleveland, promoting community.

Dorm Wars brings the whole school together, which usually have awesome moments created. I took my camera with me and I decided to share my top 11 favorite moments I captured during the event.

1) Dr. Tagayuna wonderfully crossing over the bar!

2) The girl in the rabbit costume involved in the cart race!

3) Two students running in solidarity, what uniformity!

4) The Acrobatic and beautiful display from a student in Bowdle/O'Bannon.

5) The back wave from the men of medlin!

6) The showmanship from the Guys of Brinsfield Row

7) The agility!

8) Victory so near and sweet.

9) The beautiful display of flags promoting diversity from the Girls of SNORA

10) The energy and passion after B.O.B's awesome victory!

11) The acrobatic jump and selfie in the air!

This year's Dorm Wars was indeed a very passion filled and beautiful one, the whole school coming together to each compete for a cause. Lee University never stops giving back and that is one of the reasons, I love my school. Congratulations to Sharp Davis and Bowdle/O'Bannon.

AI music threatens creativity

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.
