16 Ways Ed Sheeran Personally Saved 2017

1.Eraser.

A sure sign of perfection with a reminiscent tone of Ed's Take it Back mixed with his throaty vocals and great guitar chords.

2. Castle on the Hill.

Never been to London? That's okay. After listening to this you'll pretty much know everything about the UK. If you have been though.... get out the tissues and cue the homesickness.

3. Dive.

Someone give him another Grammy already.

4. Shape of You.

Ed, apparently, debated about putting this on the album or not. We're so glad he did; reflective of a Sia song combined with Ed's suave lyrics makes this a top pick to dance too at any club. Or in your room. Or in your car. Anywhere, actually.

5. Perfect.

Pure heart. Put it on your list of possible first-dance songs.

6. Galway Girl.

YESS! ALL THE IRISH FEELS.

7. Happier.

Okay. That's cool. Not like I needed my heart anyway.

8. New Man.

Most humorous song I've heard in a while. I mean the lyrics "bleached asshole" make an appearance within the first thirty seconds.

9. Heart's Don't Break Around Here.

Another classic.

10. What do I Know?

The type of song you want to put on when you wake up feeling refreshed on a Saturday morning. The type of song you belt too while cleaning your room. The type of song that reminds us, with all the hate going on currently, that love, understanding and positivity are far more important than anything else.

11. How Would You Feel (Paean).

Can someone serenade me with this? Yes? No? Maybe? I'll be waiting.

12. Supermarket Flowers.

Once again, not like I needed my heart. A raw, emotional song about loss and the pain yet beauty behind it. Guaranteed to make you cry.

13. Barcelona.

I just want to dance! [In the streets! Of Barcelona!]

14. Bibia Be Ye Ye.

I still have no idea what this means, but man, I'll continue to belt it at the top of my lungs.

15. Nancy Mulligan.

YES! MORE IRISHNESS! Also, how could you not love this song? It's about his grandparent's and their love story! It's so pure.

16. Save Myself.

Probably the most important song on the track. With Ed's honesty and brilliant lyrics, we're reminded that we need to take care of ourselves first and foremost. Then we can help others.

Thanks for taking care of yourself, Ed! By doing so, you single-highhandedly saved 2017.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

The holiday classics that shaped my life

1."But what would happen if we all tried to be like Santa and learned to give as only he can give: of ourselves, our talents, our love and our hearts? Maybe we could all learn Santa's beautiful lesson and maybe there would finally be peace on Earth and good will toward men."

"Sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see."

"If you won't use your heart, who cares if it gets broken? If you just keep it to yourself, maybe it'll be like my rollerblades. When you do decide to try it, it won't be any good. You should take a chance. Got nothing to lose."

"Remember, no man is a failure who has friends."

"Life is made up of meetings and partings. That is the way of it."

"If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find a that love actually is all around."

"Sometimes things look good on paper, but lose their luster when you see how it affects real folks. I guess a healthy bottom line doesn't mean much if to get it, you have to hurt the ones you depend on."

"'Maybe Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.'"

"Faith is believing when common sense tells you not to."

"There's room for everyone on the nice list."

Hopefully they will make you laugh.
