Winter Break is full of being lazy, seeing your friends and family, eating excessive amounts, drinking yourself into oblivion on NYE, panicking about your grades coming back and so much more. Who better to tell you more about your winter break feelings than the character that perfectly emulates laziness, hunger, panicking and alcoholism than New Girl's: Nick Miller.

1. Being Poor

You get home from school, you have to buy a ton on Christmas presents for people, all your friends want to hang out and you have $2.00 in your bank account.

2. Getting Your Grades

But I tried really hard...okay, I sort of tried...okay, I went to class once...BUT STILL

3. Seeing Your Family

Especially after realizing how poor you are...and getting your grades...seeing your family can really, really suck. They ask how you're doing in school, what your major is, etc.

4. Seeing Your Friends

It's the very best to see your friends especially when you probably haven't had a chance to since summer. Enjoy spending time with the Schmidt to your Nick.

5. Drinking on New Year's Eve (or any other time during break)

Your tolerance is probably slightly lower since you had finals week and then came right home and were POOR. So, now you have the chance to prepare your body for the return to college life.

6. Realizing It's Time To Go Back

No matter how much you love school, it's always sad to have to go back to school. Make sure you enjoy your time no matter what.

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.
