Sometimes, we all find ourselves feeling a little down. And if you are a boot-stomping, line-dancing, cowboy hat toting, country music listener like myself, then these are some great songs to raise your country spirits.

1. Wagon Wheel by Darius Rucker


“I gotta get a move on before the sun. I hear my baby calling my name and I know that she's the only one.”

2. "Sunshine & Whiskey" by Frankie Ballard


“Chilling on a beach with my sweet Georgia peach. Not a care in the world, just trying to beat the heat.”

3. "Life is a Highway" by Rascal Flatts


“Where the brave are free and lovers soar, come ride with me to the distant shore”

4. "That’s My Kind of Night" by Luke Bryan


“Might sit down on my diamond plate tailgate, put in my country ride hip-hop mixtape”

5. "House Party" by Sam Hunt


“We'll have a house party, we don't need nobody, turn your TV off, break that boom-box out”

6. "This is How We Roll" by Florida Georgia Line ft. Luke Bryan


“We hanging round singing out everything on the radio, we light it up with our hands up”

7. "I Want Crazy" by Hunter Hayes


“Yeah, I don't want easy, I want crazy”

8. "American Country Love Song" by Jake Owen


“It's butterflies and Bud Lights, under the stars and on the stripes of a beach towel in a Spring Break town”

9. "Dirt On My Boots" by Jon Pardi


“Might have a little dirt on my boots, but we're gonna dance the dust right off them tonight”

10. "Rain is a Good Thing" by Luke Bryan


“Start washin' all our worries down the drain, rain is a good thing”

11. "Sweet Home Alabama" by Lynyrd Skynyrd


“Sweet home Alabama, where the skies are so blue”

12. "Red White & You" by Steven Tyler


“Don't give a damn about the summertime blues, all I need is red white and you”

13. "Parking Lot Party" by Lee Brice

15. "Cruise" by Florida Georgia Line


“Baby you a song, you make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise”

16. "Ready Set Roll" by Chase Rice


“We can roll 'em down fog 'em up, cruise around get stuck pedal to the metal, 'till the sun comes up”

17. "How Country Feels" by Randy Houser


“Kick your shoes off, kick 'em off”

18. "Boys Round Here" by Blake Shelton ft. Pistol Annies


“Talkin' 'bout girls, talkin' 'bout trucks, runnin' them red dirt roads out, kicking up dust”

19. "T-Shirt" by Thomas Rhett


“T-Shirt, right there, your hair, messed up like a Guns-N-Roses video”

20. "Country Girl (Shake It For Me)" by Luke Bryan


“Shake it for the young bucks sittin' in the honky-tonks, for the rednecks rockin' 'til the break of dawn, for the DJ spinnin' that country song”

21. "Chicken Fried" by Zac Brown Band


“I love to see the sun rise, see the love in my woman's eyes”

These songs have a way of turning a frown upside down. So pop in your earbuds and jam out to these mood-lifting tunes.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
