2000s Emo Songs You Need For The Rest Of The Summer

On the other side of the 4th of July, school seems so much closer. The summer has reached its halfway mark and it creates a mixture of sadness and relief. If you live in Texas, it’s one month closer to reaching the end of the hottest months of the year. It means that we, those who live for school supplies, are about to reach our peak moments when Target starts having its Back To School Sales.

On the other hand, school is officially one month closer to us. It’s almost time to start mentally preparing yourself for the excuses and rationalization of your impending procrastination.

The only way that these feelings can be expressed is through emo music, and the pinnacle of emo music is easily classified in the 2000’s.

Thus, here are seven emo songs that say everything you wish you could as this summer winds to an end.

"Ocean Avenue" by Yellowcard

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "If I could find you know, things would get better, we could leave this town and run forever"

"Face Down" by Red Jumpsuit Apparatus

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "I see the way you go and say you’re right again (say you’re right again)"

"Sugar We’re Goin Down" by Fall Out Boy

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "I’ve been dying to tell you anything you want to hear, cause that’s just who I am this week"

"It’s Not My Time" by 3 Doors Down

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "This could be the end of me, and everything I know, but it’s not my time, I’m not going"

"Teenagers" by My Chemical Romance

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "They gonna rip up your heads, your aspirations to shreds, another cog in the murder machine"

"That’s What You Get" by Paramore

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "If I ever start to think straight, this heart will start a riot in me, let's start, start, hey!"

Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus

Lyric that is permanently seared into your brain: "But she doesn’t know who I am, and she doesn’t give a damn about me"

Now go out and embrace the nostalgic emo feelings and make it part of your summer!

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

University of Dayton

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
