As most of you may know, Vine is closing down. While I have not actively watched Vines in a few years, it used to be one of my favorite ways to pass the time. In order to fully kiss it goodbye, I have compiled a list of my old favorites as well as some my friends have sent me. Enjoy!

1. Company is Coming

https://vine.co/v/iK91wQ0WAqK

Chaoticrobao Posted a vine imitating a mom cleaning for company. Every time I see this I CRACK up. You can watch the full video on youtube here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBwELzvnrQg If this video does not define every mother before a holiday, I don't know what does!

2. I want to be famous

This little girl is hilarious. Every time I eat goldfish I love to imitate her. Totally relatable. Don't we all? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dl6tZY8j…

3. Child's Picture

Go back and find some old pictures you drew. Try to read the captions... I'm sure they'll be just as funny!

4. Shawn Mendes

Shawn Mendes is a very talented singer. The fact that he was vining away before he got super famous is amazing. Who has seen his vines?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9QNjSad6IE Here is a video of him singing Justin Beiber's "As Long as You Love Me" in his room.

5. Ian Padgham Stopping Traffic

Pretty much all vines by Ian Padgham are amazing. He is an artist who uses stop motion to create really cool clips. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdZ20jyG9YE In this video he uses stop motion to make it look like he is moving traffic with his fingers. Check him out!

6. Jason Nash Take a Bar

Jason Nash always makes me laugh. In this clip he is acting as a worried mother from Boston trying to get her kid to take a bar. https://vine.co/v/MajnKwKWmIm Could not be more me as a mother!

7. Nicholas Megalis

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKaGKyKg6nY So quirky. He usually makes vines of him rapping strange things and puns. Here is a video of a mix of a few of his raps.

8. When You're Left Alone in the Back Seat








Christian DelGrosso's Vine is totally relatable. I HATE being stuck in the back seat when my friends blast music and are grooving up front. Nobody can hear you, your ears are blowing up, and you want to get out and go home.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbZ8CFMGCMw

9. Quincy the Dog

This dog is adorable. Patrick Barnes has a dog named Quincy who can basically replicate any kind of tone he makes. He barks in replication of whatever Patrick says and its ADORABLE. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_onJXlfRTA

10. Lele Pons

Lele Pons is a riot. She always uses her friends to help her create insane daydreams and scenarios. She took "Do it for the vine" to a T. I love this vine she made in particular about daydreaming in class. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_onJXlfRTA


It was extremely difficult to put into a list some favorites, as there are SO many talented comedians, musicians, and artists on that site. While at first I was not upset it was being taken down, after going back and finding my old favorites, I am a little bitter. Vine was a great place for undiscovered talent to thrive. I certainly have burned many hours of my life laying on bed watching bootless 6 second clips of people making me laugh.

What are your favorite vines? Please share them with me before we say goodbye!

RIP VINE!

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.
