Do you every have some days that are just so stressful. Sometimes you just need to free your mind. Here are some songs that I listen to whenever I feel like relaxing.

1. Magic - Coldplay

The rhythm and beat of this song have a very relaxing tone. Also, the lyrics of the song are very simple yet calming.

2. Since We’ve Begun - Sonny

This romantic song has beautiful lyrics and a slow rhythm. I really like the live version because of the voice of the singer can be heard even more clearly.

3. September Song – JP Cooper


Both versions of this song are catchy, but for some reason, I really like the acoustic version. The lyrics and the rhythm of the song are more drawn out.

4. No Ordinary Love - Sade


The jazz background of this song always relaxes me whenever I listen to it. Sade's voice also has a very relaxing tone that connects to the emotion of the lyrics.

5. Perfect - Ed Sheeran feat. Beyoncé


I like Ed Sheeran song "Perfect" when he first released, but, adding Beyonce to the song just made me love it more. How could I not put this song on the list?

6. Have a Little Faith in Me - John Hiatt


This song is more of a classic, but the slow melody to the song and piano background has always resonated with me. The lyrics make the song all the more beautiful.

7. Rather Be - Clean Bandit feat. Jess Glynne


The beat of this song is very catchy and so are the lyrics. This is a fun song that also has a very mellow vibe that is good to listen after I'm finished with all my classes for the day.

8. Try - Colbie Caillat


The message to this song is very power: to just be yourself. The guitar melody accompanied with the song just adds to it tranquility.

9. Thy Will - Hilary Scott and the Scott Family


This is a song that I hold very dear to my heart because the lyrics are so powerful and inspirational. It is always good to have a song like this to remind you that God is always there even in hard or stressful times.

10. All Night Long ( All Night) - Lionel Richie


This is another classic song that I could not keep off of my list. Although this does have a more upbeat rhythm to the song there is still a relaxing vibe that accompanies it.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
