The following 20 songs are guaranteed to bring out the Starbucks-loving, Ugg boot wearing, Instagram obsessed, basic, white girl in everyone:

1. "Hips Don’t Lie" – Shakira

“SHAKIRA SHAKIRA”

2. "Man, I Feel Like a Woman" – Shania Twain

Honestly, nothing gets a girl hyped like screaming the line “Men’s shirt, short skirt uh oh oh oh!”

3. "The Climb" – Miley Cyrus

Old Miley is everything. New Miley? Also everything.

4. "Fergalicious" – Fergie

“I’m the F to the E, R, G, the I, the E, and can't no other lady put it down like me”

5. "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" – Cyndi Lauper

Self-explanatory.

6. "Hello" – Adele

Adele just gets it.

7. "Lip Gloss" – Lil' Mama

If you don’t still know every word to this song from middle school, you’re lying to yourself.

8. "Wannabe" – The Spice Girls

“If you wanna be my lover you gotta get with my friends” *gestures towards other basic white girls screaming the song at the top of their lungs*

9. "You Belong With Me" – Taylor Swift

Pretty much any Taylor Swift song will elicit an unnatural response from all listeners. All of a sudden everyone becomes peppy yet heartbroken and belts the lyrics like their lives depend on it.

10. "Flawless (Remix)" – Beyoncé

Queen B plus Nicki Minaj. Need I say more?

11. "Sorry" – Justin Bieber

There are two types of people in this world. Beliebers and liars. Who would have thought that in 2016 Justin would still be the basic white girl’s #MCM?

12. "What Do You Mean?" – Justin Bieber

Another banger by Bieber.

13. "The Fix" – Nelly

Absolute jam.

14. "Body Language" – Jesse McCartney

“Parlez vous francais? Konichiwa. Come and move it my way.”

15. "Hands To Myself" – Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez is the spirit animal of the basic white girl.

16. "Push It" – Salt-N-Pepa

You can distinguish the most basic of white girls from the average basics if they were inspired by Something Borrowed to learn the dance to this song.

17. "My Chick Bad" – Ludacris

Everyone knows Luda is singing about them.

18. "Country Girl" – Luke Bryan

Not only is this song accompanied with screaming the lyrics but also uncontrollable hip shaking.

19. "Walking On Sunshine" – Katrina & The Waves

The definition of a feel good song.

20. "Call Me Maybe" - Carly Rae Jepson

No matter how overplayed this was on the radio, it still brings down

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."
