An Appreciation Post For Music

If there is one thing in this world that everyone can say that they love, it's music, and probably pizza but for this article's sake we are going to say it's music. What's not to love? There's a genre for anything and everything that will satisfy everyone's taste. Whether it's hip-hop, country, pop, or some of the more under the radar genres, if one thing's for certain, the world will never run out of music.

The best part of music is how it makes you feel. We all know that blissful feeling that runs through you when you find a new song that you absolutely love and will probably listen to on repeat for the next week. Music is also tied with memories. Whether good or bad, hearing certain songs can take you on a trip down memory lane...that hopefully does not involve an ex of any kind.

It would be a disgrace to write an article about music and not mention concerts. Hearing your favorite song blasting through your headphones is one thing, but hearing it live is the real deal. It's so worth the money for those few hours of pure happiness and bass running through your body. Post concert depression is a serious problem and we have all experienced it. Concerts are also a great place to make new friends because for every person you meet, you know you have at least one thing in common.

Don't even get me STARTED on listening to music in the car. Next to singing in the shower, singing in the car is probably my favorite activity. Apologies in advance to anyone who has seen me on the road rocking out in my car by myself at a red light. If you're in the car with your friends...forget about it, everyone is going to be singing at the top of their lungs, guaranteed.

I believe that music brings people closer. I know from experience that people can talk about music for hours and it genuinely makes them happy. There are thousands of accounts of people who have claimed that music has changed their life, that music has saved their life. It's honestly amazing what music can do.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
