College Spring Semester Bucket List
Hayden Johnson

2017 is here, and the spring semester is underway. Now that I'm back on campus there are so many things that I want to do in these next few months. Here is my "bucket list" for the semester.

Go to more school events.

Last semester I went to very few school sponsored events. But my friends and I decided that we want to be more active on campus this semester. The events are usually either "free" (if you don't count all that you pay to go to the university and those additional fees) or inexpensive- which is awesome for starving college students! This includes everything between dressing up for trivia nights, going downtown for events, and other on-campus events that involve food and a fun time to hang out with our friends.

Find new places in the community.

From farm-to-table restaurants, bakeries, markets, and local shops, I want to find more places in my school community. I love being able to call a new town my own even if it just for four years.

Travel more with my friends.

Sometimes I get in a rut with my weekend plans. This next semester I want to make time to get away with my closest friends. From road trips to the mountains, trips home to see our families and the towns we grew up in (basically hometown dates, but with each other), and weekend getaways to cities we've been dying to see based on our favorite movies and TV shows.

I want to just be a college student.

By this, I don't just mean take classes and live in a dorm, I want to fully enjoy this semester. From late night Cookout runs, making up random songs while walking around campus with my friends, study break dance parties in the room, and singing way too loud when driving around campus. I want to enjoy this semester and be thankful that I am not an official adult.

Jim Elliot once wrote,

"Wherever you are, be all there! Live to the hilt every situation you believe to be the will of God."

This semester, I want to be all there.

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.
