17 Songs Rocking My 2017 Playlist So Far

Her Campus

Music has always been a major part of my life and my last few articles have been centered around my favorites bands, so I decided, hey why not create a little playlist that will hopefully entice people? Some of the following songs have personal meaning to me and some don't, but either way please enjoy!

1. Believer by Imagine Dragons

Imagine Dragons is one my favorite bands ever and I have been waiting for them to release a new album since their last album came out 2 years ago. This recently released single just hyped me up for their supposed album this year, in addition to being a really catchy and amazing song.

2. Closer by The Chainsmokers ft. Halsey

This song is my suitemate's "song" and we once heard it 5 times in one car ride on like 3 different radio stations. Needless to say, I love this one for the memories.

3. Where Are The Birds? by Good Tiger

Good Tiger is another one of my favorite bands, though they are more recent. My boyfriend introduced me to them by comparing them to Imagine Dragons but saying they were *way* more metal. We consider this song to be one of our songs and I love it because it has such a different sound

4. Side to Side by Ariana Grande ft. Nikki Minaj

Only on this playlist because it is extremely catchy and I am determined to learn Nikki's rap part.

5. The Stage by Avenged Sevenfold

Avenged Sevenfold released a new album last year and now I just found out that they are going ON TOUR WITH METALLICA this summer so I am extremely excited for that!

6. Starving by Hailee Steinfeld ft. Zedd

Super catchy and "in" right now!

7. We Don't Talk Anymore by Charlie Puth ft. Selena Gomez

Super catchy and super fun memories!

8. Love Me Now by John Legend

Uh, John Legend? Need I say more?

9. Cake By The Ocean by DNCE

My brother and my best friend both love this song so everytime I hear it, I remember all of our fun times and end up missing them even more lol

10. Levitate by Imagine Dragons

Another Imagine Dragons song because I love them; what more do I have to say? This was released in the movie album for Passengers with Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt (great movie but greater song).

11. Chucky Vs. The Giant Tortoise by Dance Gavin Dance

My latest favorite band and my absolute favorite song by them.

12. Marigold by Periphery

This is my boyfriend's favorite song from Periphery's latest album so I've listened to it quite a bit. Plus we're going to see them play in April so I am pumped for that because it means I get to see my adorable boyfriend.

13. Paradigm by Avenged Sevenfold

Another song from A7x's latest released album. I think this might be my favorite song on the album, but I do think it depends on the day.

14. Heavy by LINKIN PARK and Kiiara

Linkin Park used to be my favorite band so I was super excited for their new album. It brought back so many memories of high school and of when I used to go to the gym to work out (come on hip get better!).

15. Louder Than a Lion by Eisley

The meaning behind this song is adorable and Sherri Bemis, the singer/guitarist, is married to Max Bemis who is from the band Say Anything (one of the many bands I listened to in high school).

16. HandClap by Fitz and the Tantrums

More awesome memories with my suitemates and another awesome song by one of my favorite bands from high school.

17. Strawberry Swisher, pt. 2 by Dance Gavin Dance

My second favorite song by this band and I just love the name. Plus it gets stuck in your head and leaes you wanting to hear more from the band.

9 Things Only Girls With Bleached Hair Will Understand

Blonde hair, don't care!

Endicott College

Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

10 Things About Finals Week

As told by "Parks and Recreation" GIFs.

University of Georgia

The Playlist

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

10 Little White Lies You Tell Your Parents In College

"Uh? Eating? Am I Eating? Yeah..."

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
