15 Songs From Musical Theatre For Every Occasion
kaboompics

I've reached the point in my life where I rarely listen to popular mainstream music. I almost exclusively listen to songs from musicals. I like the storytelling aspect attached to songs that progress a plot. I've come to find there is a showtune for every mood or occasion. Here's a list I've complied so you always have a song ready for every moment in life.

1. When you're about to go to a lit party

"Big Fun" - Heathers the Musical


"Halloween" - Be More Chill


2. When you just got back from the world's best first date and you think you might have caught the feels

"Helpless" - Hamilton


"I Love the Way" - Something Rotten


3. When you like someone but they don't like you back

"I'm Not That Girl" - Wicked


"On My Own" - Les Misearbles


4. Or you're not sure if they like you

"Mix Tape" - Avenue Q


5. Or you don't even know if you want a relationship

"Being Alive" - Company


6. When you're thinking about how much you appreciate your BFF

"Two-Player Game" - Be More Chill


7. Or when you and your bestie are beefin'

"I'd Rather Be Me" - Mean Girls


8. When you want to feel like a boss ass bitch

"Dead Girl Walking" - Heathers the Musical


9. When you feel like sobbing

"Falling Slowly" - Once


"Finale" - Phantom of The Opera


10. Right before you loose your virginity

"Baptize Me" -The Book of Mormon


11. And right after

"Changing My Major" - Fun Home


(Mostly kidding about those last two, but they are great songs.)

There's never a wrong time for musical theatre. There truly is a song for every occasions, far too many too list here, but hopefully this is a good start.

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
