Music is something people of all ages listen to and it is something every culture has in common. I recently found new artists and songs that I would love to share. Hopefully, you guys enjoy them and would want to listen to the songs and albums as well. Below is my current playlist of songs and artists I've been loving. This list is made up of albums and songs.

1. Glory Days by Little Mix

This is Little Mix's fourth album and is currently my favorite one from them. This album is a little different than their last album, but it is definitely different from their first two albums. This album has very little ballads and more pop songs about break ups and empowering women. Some of my favorite song's from the album are "Touch" (Acoustic) and "Nobody Like You."


2. Tell Me It's Real by Seafret

This is the bands debut album and is currently my favorite alternative/indie album out right now. This album is very diverse when it comes to its instrumental sounds and the band's vocal range. The subject of their songs are about falling in love and being lost in the world. Some of my favorite song's from the album include "Wildfire" and "Be There."

3. Don't You Cry For Me by Cobi

Cobi is an amazing vocalist providing a very soulful tune. His songs are very rock, folk, and blues based; reminding me of the band Kaleo. His debut song "Don't You Cry For Me" represents those things by being a bluesystem anthem. The video for the song confronts racial tensions between unarmed Africa-American men and police officers.

4. Back From The Edge by James Arthur

James Arthur's second album proves how much of a great vocalist he is and why so many people should listen to his music. This album has various sounds and presents stories of being lost, feeling trapped, having times of happiness, and being in love. My favorite songs from this album is "Prisoner" and "Say You Won't Let Me Go."


5. H.E.R. Volume 1 by H.E.R.

This album offers very poetic songs and each song flows at a slow to medium pace. Some of the themes presented in the album are relationships, the idea of being in love, and focusing on yourself as an individual. My favorite songs from this album is "Focus" and "Pigment."


6. Shape of You by Ed Sheeran

After taking a whole year off Ed Sheeran has finally returned with an amazing song at the start of 2017. This song is good due to the instrumental tunes playing behind Sheeran's vocals and the constant change in Sheeran's vocal range. I can't wait to hear what other singles he releases in the future.


7. Long Live The Angels by Emeli Sande

This album is amazing due to its different instrumental sounds and the Sande's consistent vocal range. This is her second studio album and it is definitely better than her first one. My favorite tracks from the album are "Sweet Architect" and "Selah."

These is my favorite songs and albums I am currently loving; I hope everyone gives these songs and albums a try.

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.

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.
