11 Times Hilary Duff Spoke Life Through Her Songs

While you are reading this, this is gonna be quite the throwback article; however, when I was thinking of an article idea, Hilary Duff came to mind.

Lately, people have been reflecting back on 2016, and whether it was good, or bad, the worst, or best year, 2017 is a new beginning. Growing up, Hilary Duff was iconic. She was who I looked to when I was a teenager. I loved her in Lizzie McGuire and all the movies she was in. And then she created music. Could life have gotten any better?

So, here I have created a list of where there are 11 times that Hilary Duff's song lyrics made us think about life a little bit deeper.

1. "If it's over, let it go"- So Yesterday

Wow, what a fitting time when we are 10 days into 2017. Let it go, folks- whatever it is.

2. "And going out is better
Then always staying in."- Come Clean

Go live life! Bowl, go to the movies, or even to a basketball game. And go with people who you wanna do life with.

3. "Hey, hey- I'm not giving up, no."- Workin' It Out

When you feel like giving up, don't. Keep fighting, keep going.

4. "Time is beginning."-Anywhere But Here

Every day is a new beginning. Make time for friends, loved ones, and those who lift you up.

5. "But I don't need the stress."- The Math

Don't stress about the little things, y'all. Stress is something that keeps you from being truly happy.

6. "Love just is... you and me."- Love Just Is

Love isn't complicated or does it have to be about someone else in the equation. It's between two people who are just in love- "whatever that may be" (Hilary Duff,) or what that looks like.

7. "Watching the butterfly go towards the sun
I wonder what I will become."-Metamorphosis

This one is about changing and becoming and I know we all have had a moment where we think about who we are, or what career we should go in, or what major we should declare, or even which path we should go on. Don't worry, y'all, you'll become that butterfly also.

8. "Find a dream you can follow."- Fly

Find it y'all and go fully towards it.

9. "And I will be strong
Even if it all goes wrong."- Someone's Watching Over Me

It may have been a hard year for some, or you are going through a tough time now. But take this lyric and heart from Hilary Duff and just stay strong. I know that may be hard, but know that you're not alone in this.

10. "There's something going on anywhere I go." -Wake Up

Life happens. It's happening right now. So wherever you go, or what ever you are doing and whom ever you are doing life with, life's happening. Make it great.

11. "Why not, take a crazy chance."- Why Not

The most well known song by Hilary Duff back then. Do it people. With 355 more chances this year for opportunities and chances, why not?

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
