The First Week At UGA, As Told By 'The Office'
NBC

Even though it's not quite over, I can already sum up week one at UGA with a little help from our favorite characters at Dunder Mifflin. I'm gonna keep this intro short and sweet so you can all move on to nodding your head in agreement and mumbling, "Same."

1. It is hot as hell

What is up with some of the buildings having shitty air conditioning? Like, I should not be sweating sitting in Park Hall at 10 a.m. Whoever came up with the South's weather patterns needs to calm down.

2. There are too many new people

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TAKE OFF YOUR BACKPACK WHEN YOU ARE ON A PACKED BUS. There is nothing worse than having to get hit in the face with a freshman's backpack multiple times because they don't understand bus etiquette.

3. Textbook prices are ridiculous

I had to spend roughly 400 dollars on textbooks this semester and I'm dying inside.

4. Waking up is too hard

Over the summer, I kind of forgot that people actually have to be productive before noon.

5. Everyone seems to be catching up with each other and you're just like...

I always seem to be the one person in a class who has no idea who any else is.

6. Your book bag is heavier than you remember

I weighed my bag for MWF classes and it legit weighs 500 pounds.

7. Did I mention the heat?

I AM ALWAYS SWEATY!

8. Professors here are amazing

That's the one thing UGA has going for it (unless our football team decides to actually win a game this season). OUR TEACHERS ARE DOPE.

9. Homework is unfortunately still a thing

Why do I have to read all of Mrs. Dalloway in the first week? #englishmajorproblems

10. But you're still glad to be back

Because hey, you could be going to Georgia Tech... or Florida... or Tennessee... or Alabama...

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.
