1. Feeling Hopeless After A Break-up: 'I Will Survive' by Gloria Gaynor

Giphy

Going through a nasty breakup? Sometimes you're left in a state of mind that you'll never be okay again, or that you'll never be the same. It can be so difficult to find peace within yourself once it's been disturbed. Ms. Gaynor is here to remind you though that you WILL survive, and no person will ever be able to just walk back in your life after hurting you the way they did. Even if at first you're afraid and petrified.

2. You're In Love and Want To Dance - 'September' by Earth, Wind & Fire

Giphy

Maybe you met in September, maybe you didn't. But you're floating within the clouds and all you want to do is dance around your room because of how happy you are. Name a better song for that. I'll wait.

3. When You're Working Day And Night And Deserve A Lot More Respect - 'She Works Hard For the Money' by Donna Summer

Giphy

"She works hard for the money so you better treat her right." This song is a timeless anthem for hardworking women everywhere who ever feel or felt overshadowed by their male counterparts. Inequality was a much bigger problem in the 1970s, but unfortunately a message like this is still relevant today.

4. For Your Inner Flower Child: 'Imagine' - John Lennon

Giphy

This song is an ode to the dreams of an ideal world where people put aside their differences and the things that set them apart to live in the moment and support one another. This sentiment still resonates with people today as social justice issues are being further emphasized than they've been since the 1970s.

5. When You're Living Your Best Single Life: 'It's Raining Men' - The Weather Girls

Giphy

As stated by this iconic song, mother nature is a single woman too.

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

647

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
