We've all encountered them. They're the worst kind of boys. You wonder how they even made it this far in life because they're just that immature. But fear not, for there are plenty of things in life that are much better for you than boys could ever be. Consult this list when you need a pick-me-up.

1. Getting really good manicure

2. Getting a massage

3. Watching "Notting Hill"

4. Eating Ben & Jerry's "Phish Food"

5. Going on a really long run to clear your head (and distract from the fact that you just ate Ben & Jerry's)

6. Binge-watching Stranger Things Season 2

7. Getting PSL from Starbucks

8. Re-reading your favorite book

9. Investing in an adult coloring book (or five)

Seriously, pick one up from Michael's. They make them with inspirational Bible quotes , flowers , swear words , even Harry Potter characters . Speaking of...

10. Watching Harry Potter weekends on Freeform

11. Getting a paycheck

12. Spending your whole paycheck

13. Watching Friends marathons on MTV

14. Getting last minute tickets to a great concert

Disclaimer: Did this last Sunday. $67 to see Niall Horan the morning of his show in Philly. Definitely worth it.

15. Having wine nights with your girlfriends

16. Putting on face masks

17. Going to the beach

18. Enjoying some freshly baked muffins

19. Going to a college basketball game

20. Going to Chipotle

21. Having a Honey Roast with your friends

Honey Roast definition: The act of roasting a person, except you only say nice things about them.

22. Enjoying that moment when you make it to your morning class after a night out

23. Savoring the feeling when you walk out of your last exam before Winter Break

24. Cooking for yourself and not burning a single thing (#adulting)

25. Making a cup of tea on a rainy day

26. Listening to Christmas music and getting hyped up

27. Tagging your friends in memes on Facebook

28. Getting tagged by your friends in memes on Facebook

29. Watching your favorite Vines (#RIP)

And for good measure, here's my favorite.

30. Watching One Direction dance parties (also #RIP)

31. Having Sunday brunch

32. Buying a ton of new makeup

33. Reading the latest Vogue

November's cover star is Daisy Ridley, so get hype for The Last Jedi.

34. Going on a shopping spree with your mom

35. Having a picnic in the park with your sisters

I can personally attest to how great this is. Central Park in late June with a picnic blanket and some sandwiches. Head to Sheep Meadow. No boys allowed.

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.
