1. The Record Company.

The Record Company is a three-member rock band that combines the sounds of older rock bands with a contemporary blues sound, making it the perfect band for you to fall in love with this summer. Their first album, “Give It Back To You” was released in February 2016 and it's amazing.

My Favorite Song:

2. Colony House.

Another trio, but with an indie rock sound, influenced by alternative rock legends U2. The Colony House is the perfect band to listen to while driving around on a sunny day, or hanging out with some friend on the beach. Regardless of what your doing while you’re listening to their music, I promise it will inspire you to smile!

My Favorite Song:

3. Atlas Road Crew.

If you like country, this band is for you. Their rock-country fusion will have you obsessed with their earlier work. If country music isn’t as much your thing, their album “Halfway to Hopkins” is the sound you’ve been looking for.

My Favorite Song:

4. Broadside.

If you are passionate about your punk rock, this band is most definitely for you! Their debut album "Old Bones" came out in 2015, and was most definitely inspired by the punk rock greats! If punk rock isn't really your thing, they've also recorded most of their song as acoustics as well.

My Favorite Song:

5. The Struts.

The Struts are an English band who debut album "Everybody Wants" came out in 2014. Their louder mouths and even louder personalities make them comparable to that of Queen and Aerosmith.

My Favorite Song:

6. Vista Kicks.

Their sound is a combination between the Strokes, the Arctic Monkeys and Kings of Leon - making the Vista Kicks the perfect new discovery for anyone who's a die hard alt-rock fan.

My Favorite Song:

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

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.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
