10 Songs You Should Add To The Soundtrack Of Life In Your Head

We frequently think up the perfect song to go along with a situation we bear witness to and begin to wonder, "Why can't I pitch a film score to Hollywood?" That's how it works, right? Hey, I may never be Hans Zimmer but a girl can dream. Here's a short list of some of my favorite song-situation couples:

1. "Stomp" by Kirk Franklin. This throwback would be the perfect song for if you ever get to lay down a major ass whooping. Granted in real life you are more likely to fall on the receiving end of this situation, I dare you to look at another fight scene live or on screen and not play this in your head! When that call and response hits towards the end of the song, you'll be yelling out "Stomp!"


2. "Chacha" by DRAM. Allegedly Drake stole this beat for his hit song 'Hotline Bling'. Well, in my opinion, the original's better. I can't listen to it without feeling all bubbly and happy inside. Because it has a high memorability value, you can pull it out from the recesses of your mind and listen to that instead of that professor's two-hour lecture. Be prepared though for when they ask "what they I do differently today" because you seemed so attentive and excited. It definitely makes you want to chacha...with a Dominican...that resembles Taina.


Sidenote: Drake's new release "One Dance" is absolute fire. Same effect as DRAM's Chacha in that it will make you want to hit the dance floor although its mellow Afro-beat influenced House production is better suited for ushering people out with a final dance after a hard night's club-hopping. Drake better lawyer up because I have half a mind to file a lawsuit against him for false advertising. "One Dance" will keep you on your feet yelling "Encore!"


3. Disney's Beauty and the Beast "Tale as Old As Time" Piano cover. Preferably heard drifting faintly into your dorm room as you lay on your bed watching movies. This will whip up your childhood nostalgia in no time.


4."Where Have You Been" by Rihanna. When your dry spell is finally shattered by "The One"...numero cinco.


5."It's All Coming Back To Me" Celine Dion. While we're on the subject of relationships, this is the perfect song for when you're reminiscing over your ex. Why did we break up again? Come back, wah!


6."What Do You Mean?" Justin Bieber. Like, what am I supposed to do when you text me things like "Till when do u gonna be here?"...Huh?


7."Apocalypse Dreams" Tame Impala. That riff from 4:08 onward would make the perfect outro to my sold out concert. Hey, we all want to be a rock star!


8."Digits" by Young Thug. I don't know nor do I care what he says in the rest of the song. I live for the first four bars of that chorus. Makes you want to get up and do things you were to scared to do before because "why not risk life when it's gon' keep goin'?"


9 "The Circle of Life" Disney's Lion King opening credits scene. When you wake up early on a weekend and you open your curtains and that sun hits you just so. *Sigh*


10."Bittersweet Symphony" The Verve. This song was made for walking while in deep thought. Careful because your facial expression settles on resting bitch face when you get really into it . I've been accused of that several times and it was probably while playing this in my head.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
