1. Binge watch "This is Us"

I have heard so many good reviews of this show, and I can't wait to curl up on the couch with my favorite blanket and spend hours catching up on the first season.


2. Read "Eat, Pray, Love"

After traveling these past few months, I now have extreme wanderlust, and the need to travel the world. There is no perfect book than this one to read after spending time abroad. After seeing the movie, and having multiple people recommend this book, it is definitely at the top of my list!


3. Craft

Well, I have so much memorabilia from Europe that I have saved, so I might as well create a cute display for everything...maybe even scrapbook...


4. Color in my new coloring book

Yes you heard that right. Coloring in my new coloring book. Of course I bought myself a book in Paris...it was only €3


5. Buy membership to gym

During this past summer, I went from hating the gym to actually enjoy going everyday. I missed it while I was abroad, and I am looking forward to going back for the month I'm home.



6. Celebrate my 21st birthday

So, my 21st birthday is this month, and I couldn't be more excited to be home with my friends and family celebrating this momentous birthday


7. Find a new recipe to make for my family

After cooking most of my meals in Denmark, I'm excited to be home and try some new yummy recipes! At home, my mom and sister are the chefs of the house, but I can't wait to cook dinner for my family, and show them what I've taught myself how to make. Even try out a new favorite.


8. Have a movie night with my friends

One of my favorite things to do when all of my friends are home from break is to have a movie night. All you need is a few of your girlfriends(or guy friends), a movie everyone agrees on, a comfy place to watch and don't forget the popcorn and snacks!


9. Watch season 5 of New Girl

While in Denmark, season 5 of New Girl came out on Netflix, so inevitably, I have to catch up!


10. Spend time wth family and friends

As corny as this may be, I can't wait to spend time with both my family and friends. This winter break, I can't wait to have no internship, no big plans, and just relax. This is also a perfect time to catch up with both friends and family!

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.
