Music has the ability to completely shift our moods. If you are sad, angry or even stressed, listening to a fun and upbeat song can make you feel happy and will get you dancing in your seat. Here are 13 different songs guaranteed to get you in a better mood:

1. "Know No Better" - Major Lazer ft. Travis Scott, Camila Cabello & Quavo

Let's start off this list with a new song that just came out in 2017. This Dance/Electronic song is bound to get you up and dancing no matter what mood you are in.

2. "Can't Stop" - Red Hot Chili Peppers

Who doesn't live the Red Hot Chili Peppers? The Alternative/Indie beat of this song can make even the grumpiest of people tap their foot and sing along.

3. "Pump It" - Black Eyed Peas

Major throwback! The Pop & Hip-hop/rap styles of The Black Eyed Peas will never get old, especially this 2005 hit. "Pump it... LOUDER!!!"

4. "Heads Will Roll" - Yeah Yeah Yeahs

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs are an Alternative/Indie and Rock group, but this song is definitely one to get you up and dance. The remix of this song was featured in the movie "Project X," but let's just stick to the classic. Both are fun and awesome to dance to!

5. "Mambo No. 5 (A Little Bit of...)" - Lou Bega

Do I even have to explain this one? If you've never heard this song, please do yourself a favor and listen to it now!

6. "Down" - Jay Sean ft. Lil Wayne

Another major throwback! Listening to this song will make you feel like you're at a middle school dance, which I know we all wish we were at right now instead of work.

7. "The Sweet Escape" - Gwen Stefani ft. Akon

You can never get enough of the throwbacks. Who can rap the entire refrigerator part? I can!!!

8. "It's Still Rock and Roll To Me" - Billy Joel

Billy Joel is an extremely diverse and amazing musician. If this 1980 hit doesn't make your head bob, I'll give you a dollar.

9. "Raise Your Glass" - P!nk

P!nk always tells important messages in her songs, such as self-confidence and being yourself. This song is no different, and will definitely make you dance around your room when no one's home.

10. "i" - Kendrick Lamar

This song is not typical of Kendrick Lamar, but I'm not complaining. "i" is an ultimate feel-good song and you will definitely be singing along. "I love myself!!!"

11. "Feel Good Inc." - Gorillaz

"Feel Good Inc." will most certainly make you feel good while listening to it. Although the lyrics are kind of strange, the beat of the song is unlike any other and will immediately uplift your mood.

12. "Party Rock Anthem" - LMFAO ft. Lauren Bennett & GoonRock

LMFAO has managed to create a song that people of all ages enjoy. This song is played at weddings, birthday parties, graduation parties, and even while at the gym. If this song doesn't make you want to get up and dance, maybe you should turn the volume louder.

13. "Memories" - David Guetta ft. Kid Cudi

Last but not least, my go-to feel-good song. Kid Cudi is by far my favorite artist. He is so diverse in his music and his lyrics tell stories and important messages about himself and the world. "Memories" is a Dance/Electronic song with extremely catchy lyrics that has me up and dancing every time I hear it. When I'm having a bad day, listening to this song makes me feel so much better, and I hope it will happen for you too!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

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.
