1. We Belong Together - Mariah Carey

You can't deny it, every time this song came on you we're thinking about your "first love " while singing with your friends.

2. Ride Wit Me - Nelly

Granted we weren't really sure what Nelly meant by smoking in the backseat, but we all scream sung "Ay must be the money"

3. 1,2 Step - Ciara

You immediately recognized the song once the beat started and dragged your BFF to the dance floor to dance

4. Knock You Down - Keri Hilson

You and your BFF's would definitely try to sing the main line and the lines following behind it all at the same time while trying to coordinate your dance moves.

5. Yeah! - Usher

This is the one song that gets everybody going. Everyone and I mean EVERYONE would be on the dance floor singing and dancing to this song.

6. Buy You A Drank - T-Pain

Even though we were all too young to drink and buy alcohol, there was something about T-Pain's voice that just got all of us moving on the dance floor

7. Gold Digger - Kayne West

Half of us only knew the beginning and the main course of the song, but there was that one kid who knew the rap and we all thought he was cool

8. Kiss Me Thru The Phone - Soulja Boy

We all had the number memorized from this song and we all tried to call it to see if Soulja Boy would actually answer the phone

9. Beautiful - Akon

Many of us thought that this song was over played, but the rest of us jammed out to it with no problem

10. Halo - Beyoncé

A dance isn't complete until one of Beyoncé's songs is played. Everyone slow danced to this song all while trying to hit all of her high notes.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
