John Mayer's Alternative style, infused with hints of jazz and blues, is enough to get you through an entire day. Whether you're head over heels in love, in a relationships that's a little "complicated", or living the single life, there's a Mayer song to help you through it. Below is a list of my top 10 songs for each of the following moods.

In Love:

Sometimes, love sucks, and other times, love rocks. Mayer expresses his experiences with love in an extremely relatable fashion. With songs dating back to 1999, not only has he become more wise in the field of love, but he has changed his prospective a few times which are all reflected through his music here.

-New Light

-Love On The Weekend

-Wildfire

-A Face To Call Home

-Who You Love

-Come Back To Bed

-Your Body Is a Wonderland

-Back To You

-Love Song For No One

-XO

It's Complicated:

Since Mayer never married, it would be a pretty logical assumption that he has had his fill of complicated relationships. I mean, haven't we all? Expressed through these songs are feelings of confusion, doubt, and desire to convey what it truly feels like to be in a relationship that may not even be a relationship at all.

-Emoji Of a Wave

-Helpless

-Rosie

-In The Blood

-Waiting On The Day

-Love Is a Verb

-Half Of My Heart

-Friends, Lovers, or Nothing

-Edge Of Desire

-I Don't Trust Myself With Loving You

Heartbroken:

In case you need a good cry, or maybe just in the mood to relate to some serious heartbreak, Mayer truly knows how to get you in your feels. Most of these songs are about distrust and failed love but a lot of them have hints of hope in them as well. The stormy days are tough to weather but there are only rainbows after it rains.

-Never On The Day You Leave

-Still Feel Like Your Man

-Moving On And Getting Over

-You're Gonna Live Forever In Me

-All We Ever Do Is Say Goodbye

-Heartbreak Warfare

-The Heart Of Life

-Slow Dancing In a Burning Room

-Dreaming With a Broken Heart

-Im Gonna Find Another You

Just Chillin':

You don't have to be searching for love. There is no reason to beat yourself up over a heartbreak. Sometimes what's best is to just take a break and chill for a bit. If you need to work on you for a bit, I get it, Mayer gets it, and everyone else gets it too. There's nothing wrong with free falling for as long as you want.

-Changing

-Roll It On Home

-Call Me The Breeze

-On The Way Home

-Free Fallin'

-Shadow Days

-Something Like Olivia

-Perfectly Lonely

-Who Says

-Neon

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

University of Wisconsin Branch Schools

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.
