I don't know about you, but going outside is the last thing I want to do on a rainy day. But that doesn't mean you have to be bored out of your mind! There are plenty of things that you can do when the weather is not the greatest. Don't just lay on the couch Googling "what to do when your bored," unless you want to spend your day googling different things and educate yourself with semi-useless knowledge! Here are some ideas for you to check out and give them a shot. Also remember that you do not have to spend a rainy day alone! You can invite a friend and if they don’t want to leave their house either, you can always FaceTime and hang out in an interesting long distance way.

1. Movie/Netflix Marathon

Everyone loves to watch movies, right? So why not make a whole day movie marathon? Whether you keep popping in DVDs or scroll through Netflix, the movies will keep on coming. You can even make this marathon better by being all comfy in pajamas, getting snacks together, or even making a blanket fort! The options are endless and you don't have to have this marathon alone either, invite a friend!

2. Video Game Extravaganza

Gamer or not, there has to be one video game that you love. Make it your mission to complete and conquer as much as the game that you can in one day. I guess you can say you’re "binge gaming." Just make sure that you take breaks every once in awhile to, you know, eat or drink.

3. Spa Day

Take this rainy day as a sign to take care of yourself! Take a nice hot shower or a bath and relax. Play some relaxing music, maybe do a facial mask, or even take some time to meditate. Have yourself a little spa day and relax all of your troubles away.

4. DIY (Do It Yourself)

Remember that recipe or DIY idea you saw online? Well, now you have the time to do it! So go back on Pinterest or Facebook and find a DIY to do and do it! DIY your little heart out.

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.

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.
