7 Albums to Check Out Right Now

Bored with your typical music selection? Looking for something new to jam out to in the shower? Sick of listening to the same song on repeat because you just don't know what else is out there? This is the place for you. Here are some albums to check out right now:

1. "How to Be a Human Being," Glass Animals.

This album is great if you want to hear some really palpable beats. This is my favorite music to listen to on a Friday night with a candle lit lying on the floor with my eyes closed. Check out "Season 2, Episode 3," and "The Other Side of Paradise."

2. "Like I Used To," Lucy Rose.

I like to listen to this album when I'm studying or journaling. Lucy Rose has a beautiful, mesmerizing voice that is easy to listen to. She writes smart, relatable lyrics that will make you feel some type of way. This is a great album for breakups.

3. "Light Upon the Lake," Whitney.

Lead singer Julien Ehrlich has a winy voice that is hard to adjust to. But the lyrics are so good that I can't stop listening. One of my favorites from the song "No Woman," is "I've been going through a change/I might never be sure/I'm just walking in a haze/I'm not ready to turn."

4. "Back on Top," The Front Bottoms.

Angry? Listen to this album. Happy? Listen to this album. Need life advice? Listen to this album. The lyrics make you feel something real. Brian Sella's crooning voice make you sympathize with him and make you want to be his champion. Check out "Help," "Historic Cemetery," and "The Plan."

5. "Telluric," Matt Corby.

This album is funky and transcendental. The best way to listen to this album is laying down in your bed with your eyes closed in headphones in. It'll take you on a fun journey. My favorites include "Monday" and "Sooth Lady Wine."

6. "Act One," Marian Hill.

Lead singer Samantha Gongol's soft singing combined with the jazzy, bassy beats of production artist Jeremy Lloyd creates a unique sound. Great album to listen to while working out.

7. "The Altar," Banks.

While Banks musical talents are often questioned, the songs on this album pump me up. Whenever I feel like raging, I pop this album in and jam out to her beckoning calls.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
