I'm sure it's not just me, but when the weather turns cold, I prefer to bundle up in my room, watch some Netflix, sip some hot chocolate, and just relax. One of my favorite things to do, especially when it's raining, is to listen to some classic oldies songs and pretend I'm in a movie.

With that being said, in honor of the cold and rainy weather (even though it's March... #globalwarming), I've compiled a list of some of my favorite classic songs. Enjoy!

1. Santo & Johnny - "Sleep Walk"

2. Paul Anka - "Put Your Head On My Shoulder"

2.5 Paul Anka - "Put Your Head On My Shoulder (Remix)"

This is a remix that I found the other day that, surprisingly, actually sounds REALLY good. Credit to Floreyyyy*

3. Paul Anka - "It's Time To Cry"

4. Julie London - "Cry Me A River"

5. Doris Day - "Dream A Little Dream Of Me"

6. Etta James - "A Sunday Kind Of Love"

6.5 Amy Vachal - "A Sunday Kind of Love" - Cover

Amy Vachal was a contestant on The Voice Season 9 and she was one of my all-time favorite singers. Her voice has this classic and calming feel to it and her cover of this song by the amazing Etta James was equally amazing.

7. Etta James - "At Last"

8. Lesley Gore - "You Don't Own Me"

Many of us know this song as Grace's, who sang it for Suicide Squad's soundtrack. However, Lesley Gore recorded this song back in 1963, giving it an older and more classic sounding vibe.

9. Everly Brothers - "All I Have To Do Is Dream/Cathy's Clown"

Definitely one of my personal favorites!


10. Bobby Darin - "Dream Lover"

It's almost impossible to be able to list off all of the classic songs, but here are some of my favorites!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
