50 Songs Played At Your Middle School Dances

Middle school was such a great time to be alive. We had Tamagotchis, sleepovers, crocs, nachos for lunch, acne, easy homework, trampolines, Gameboys, flip phones, and middle parts, but best of all, we had middle school dances. Do you remember dancing to Akon with your gauchos, braces, and Air Forces on? Me too, and it was the best. Those songs we danced to have a very special place in my heart. Here is a list of just a few of those songs to help refresh your memory (Disclaimer: I graduated middle school in 2010 to give you an idea of the time period)...

1. Lipgloss - Lil Mama

2. Crank That - Soulja Boy

3. Work It - Missy Elliot

46. Promiscuous - Nelly Furtado featuring Timbaland

47. Sexy Back - Justin Timberlake

49. The Great Escape - Boys Like Girls

50. Hey Ya - Outkast

Of course, there are many other hits from the 2000s that we jammed to when we were "like 12" but, these are some of the best (and no one has time to read over 50 songs anyway). So listen to these in the shower, in the car, while you're walking your dog (or cat if you're a weirdo), in "da club," or wherever you feel like it. We all need a little Akon or Avril in our lives once in awhile.

25 Things I Want My Younger Cousins To Know

Bailey Totten

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again.

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
