Two Weeks Before Exams
playbuzz.com

The semester is almost over. There are a total of two weeks left before exam week. Two. Weeks. This is the later that you never thought would actually come. If you're not freaking out then you either stayed on top of everything or you are still in denial. Me, I'm trying so hard to stay in denial but with all of the dues dates coming up, it's becoming difficult. Of course for a few weeks, I was totally ignorant to the fact that the end was coming. Those were the best weeks. Here are the stages that lead up to the end of the semester as told by That 70s Show.

Ignorance

You're in your own happy little world with no clue that everything is about to take a turn for the worse.


Realization

You find out there are ONLY TWO WEEKS until exam week


Initial Panic

You're just trying to cope any way you can.


Procrastination

Anything sounds better than actually getting things done.


Full Out Avoidance

What assignments? You don't have any assignments due. People should stop trying to tell you that you have something called assignments due.


Denial

You totally still have time.


Anger

Everything upsets you, but especially the people who didn't procrastinate and are actually prepared for the end of the semester.


Feeling Overwhelmed

Quiz on Monday, presentation on Tuesday, three essays due on Thursday. It's cool, you're good, not freaking out at all.


Considering other Life Paths

Well, college isn't your thing but maybe a life of easy crime is?


Breakdown

Oh no, you were wrong. It's here. You have to do things and there is no time!


Acceptance

Time to buckle down and get shit done.


Or Not

There's no hope, might as well enjoy the end.

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.
