The 82 Best Throwback Jams

In a few days, my family and I will be setting off on our annual 12-hour car ride to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. Hours and hours of straight driving grows to be boring and exhausting. The go-to way for anyone to pass time is to listen to music. However, with so many hours to waste, it’s easy to get tired of the same old songs. How many times can you listen to Don’t Let Me Down or One Dance before you’ve had enough? (Don’t get me wrong I’m obsessed with these songs but even I can only listen to them so many times). Luckily for all of you who will be experiencing a long car ride, I have put together a list of some great throwbacks that will hopefully make your ride a bit more bearable.

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.

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

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.

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.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
