As I sit back and reflect on the past year I've found a common thread; incredible female friendships. I've been lucky enough to be surrounded by amazing women who work hard and love well. This is my mass thank you note to you ladies!

1. Momma

Thank you for letting me call you multiple times a day just to tell you the silliest stuff in the world. Thank you for the best advice, constant empathy, and your cute bitmojis. I love you so much and I'm more aware now than ever that you are always right.

2. My Diamond Big

Biggie! Thank you for being my biggest cheerleader and the realest always. You're the coolest of all time and I can't wait to watch you rule the world one day.

3. Roomie

ILY IHY. I'm so so thankful for you. I'm sorry that I'm always emotional and make the dumbest jokes in the world. Thank you for putting up with me for months and months with no complaints. Love you forever and can't wait to work in the same courtroom one day. Remember that some people are Creeds when you want them to be a Jim and that's okay!

4. The Jim To My Dwight

You are the friend I never thought I would have. You love so well and are the coolest dork. I'm excited to get back to school just to drive around town listening to you rap every song perfectly while sipping a Large Diet Coke. What a blessing you are, sweet girl! Get those summer classes done so we can get back to our nonsense.

5. The Janet To My Chidi

You're my beautiful, witty, geoscience loving, allergic to the world friend and MAN are you the coolest person ever. You live life out loud and are the most fun person in the universe. I cannot even wait to be roommates next year and watch all the TV together cause you're the only one that will watch all my obscure shows with me.

6. Hometown Best Friend

You're the OG and I love you now more than ever. We've lived through a lot together and even though you were two hours away at all times this year, I could feel your support constantly. We have the highest snapchat score I've ever seen and you already know all the stories I am always trying to explain to everyone at school. Now I'm home for the next three months and we are gonna have a blast!

7. My Food Run Partner

You're the go-to when I needed some unlimited pancakes or deep meaningful conversation over Sonic tater tots. You are so caring and genuine and I can not believe I get to call you my sister. Keep dancing like crazy and living spontaneously cause we get to live in the SAME HOUSE next year.

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.
