8 Things Country Music Fans Can Relate To

Country music is such a hit-or-miss genre of music. With country, you either adore it and can be seen "Rolling your windows down and cruisin'" virtually every day or you would much rather get ran over by a pick up truck than indulge in this musical masterpiece. Regardless of which side of your preference there are many reasons country music isn't just for "tan-legged Juliets" and "redneck Romeos".

1. Lyrics

As opposed to popular genres such as pop and rap at the moment with their meaningless repetitive verses that just don't "work, work, work, work, work", country features meaningful storylines and catchy tunes that will make you want to head to the nearest honky tonk.

2. Attractive People

Don't get me wrong, there is an infinite amount of beautiful singers roaming the hip-hop music stage, but country features a wide variety of country girls with rock in' legs and sexy, pick-up truck driving, facial hair wearing, Cowboys. (Like have you seen Luke Bryan)

3. Positive Role Models

There are bad people roaming everywhere, but 99% of the time you won't find country folks with a criminal record of any sort. As a result country singers are positive role models to aspire to be like for children and just about everyone. Plus who doesn't love songs that promote women, rather than bashing them!

4. Emotions

Maybe half of you hate the feels, but everyone has feelings and country music causing a variety of emotions. Whether your sad over a breakup, you want to "dig your keys in to the side of his souped up four wheel drive", or you just need inspiration to "follow your arrow" country music appeals to every emotion.

5. Family Friendly

No curse words, meaning that the whole family can jam to some K frog in the minivan on the way to school. Plus stage coach can be a family event!

6. Relatable

As stated prior every song tells a story. This means, every song is relatable, with clearly stated story lines, and varying subjects. You could hear anything from a Disney character, to a truck, to a party, to cutting down a tree, all in one album!

7. Feel-Good Vibe

No matter how terrible awful your mood is, country music is "chicken noodle soup for the soul". Are you still crying over the death of fictional Derek Shepard? No problem, listening to these catchy, line-dance worthy songs, could lift up any mood.

8. American Pride

Who doesn't love a good old "American country love song". Or any American song for that matter. Country music has American pride written all over it...

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

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.

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.
