An Open Letter To My Group Chat
Bri Leifker

A group chat is something that everyone is bound to be in. Everyone in the group chat knows that it's a blessing to be in... Even when you wake up to 200 messages. I never can share with my group chat all that they do for me.

Thank you for draining my phone battery. Thank you for making my phone die by noon because you are trying to figure who to get lunch with.

Thank you for making it easy to share my stories. I don't know what I would do if I had to actually text every single one of you separately to share secrets

Thank you for adding me back to the chat when I get angry and leave. Thank you for loving me even when I am frustrated and choose to leave group chat. Even though I'm mad I keep getting added back.

Thank you for overanalyzing my text message screenshots. If it wasn't for you I would not overthink every message I have ever received.

Thank you for being my escape. Thank you for helping me escape awkward situations by letting me text you a play by play of the awkward situation that I am in.

Thank you for sending endless memes. Thank you for sending me memes of every stupid little thing that somewhat goes along with the situation we are having.

Thank you for being my built in therapist. Thank you for giving me advice about boys, college, life and basically everything else in the world.

Thank you for always giving me something to do. Thank you for always being down to go on random adventures with me.

Most importantly, thank you for being my best friends.

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.
