7 Songs That Create The Perfect Senior Playlist

Senior year is filled with different emotions, so I've made a playlist that morphs all of those emotions together.

7 Songs That Create The Perfect Senior Playlist
Celeb Mix

With senior year comes many feelings and I've noticed during my 3 weeks in so far, that having a playlist to showcase all of these feelings is very helpful for the days you're either rejoicing about graduation, or crying, because we all know both of those are very common. This playlist, or should I say playLIT (haha) is composed of various genre's, various artists, and various emotions. I hope that you can put it to work and it serves its purpose of rightfully ending a chapter of your life.

1. "Good Riddance" - Green Day

I know, weird choice because it seems like Green Day basically fell off the face of the earth, however, great song. It somehow perfectly sums up a book closing and reminds you to have the time of your life in high school because it really doesn't last forever.

2. "Goodbye" - Aaron Tveit

Although this song is from a musical, that doesn't take any of the feelings you get when you hear it away. Also Aaron Tveit is very cute and his voice is amazing. 10/10 would recommend.

3. "I'll Always Remember You" - Hannah Montana

Ignore that this song is actually a Disney song from 2008. This song is literally about graduation and especially with this year's seniors, Hannah Montana is right up our alley. So seriously, please give it a chance. I promise it's so good.

4. "Take A Bow" - Rihanna

Rihanna is my queen, I love her with my entireheart. This song is such a good signification of an ending, even though it's about a break up. Graduating is basically a break up, right?

5. "Closing Time" - Semisonic

We all know this song is used in almost everything that seniors do, videos, slideshows, anything. It makes me cry now that I'm actually a senior, but before I never understood why it was so relatable or perfect for seniors, but now I do. It's about moving on and going off to college and having a new beginning. Great jam for a good cry, or the rejoicing of an ending.

6. "See You Again" - Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth

Although this is cheesy, it's very accurate. Your class becomes your family, and high school is hard and long. College is going to be even harder and even longer. It makes us realize the importance of our forever friends.

7. "Count on Me" - Bruno Mars

For some reason, our of every song that could make me cry, it's this one. It just really shows you how much friendship has made an impact in our lives during high school and how dependent we are on our friends that we've made during our four years in high school.

These songs all together compile a playlist of every emotion you'll need during your senior year of high school.

Good luck class of 2017.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
