Why College Friends Are The Best Friends

They are the ones who make these 4 years the best years.

Why College Friends Are The Best Friends
Molly Herman-Gallow

Rumor has it that you find your best friends when you go off to school. It sounds very cliché, but this is the time where you are supposed to find the people who are going to be there for you the rest of your life. These will be the people in your wedding, people you will organize play dates your children with, and think about everyday for the rest of your life because your university gave you such an amazing opportunity to find some of your best friends. Here's why your college friends are your best friends:

1. Your college friends will always be there to support you, through the good and the bad times, and will always encourage you to do your best.

2. They will help you with your homework.

3. They will threaten to beat up the boy who made you sad.

4. They encourage your hobbies and support you in every way they can.

5. They will pull dogs off of you so that you don't get hurt more.

6. They will always be down for free food (especially s'mores and ice cream).

7. You can always count on someone to eat lunch with.

8. Your friends always know how to make you smile.

9. There's never a time you're not having fun.

10. You can be your completely weird and normal self and won't get judged.

11. You all can go shopping together.

12. Road trips singing as if you're screaming with the top down are a must.

13. They will take care of you when you get hurt/sick and don't have your mom.

14. They will paint your nails for you.

15. There is absolutely never a dull moment.

I've always heard that these are the best four years of your life and have always wondered why. After I got here and met my best friends, I finally understand it.

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.
