Why The Song 'From The Ground Up' Is Goals
Warner Music Nashville

Dan and Shay. You truly slayed with your song "From the Ground Up". Ever since I heard the song I was hooked. It is everything that truly needs to be said in this generation. The song can drive any person into thoughts and aspirations about relationships and finding true love. From the beginning of the song you are pictures things as life hands them to you. Give it a listen, your life will be changed!

Picture your grandparents. They're old and yet they're still so much in love. Even if your grandparents aren't so in love everybody at some point has seen that "adorable little old couple". Teenagers and young people now label that at "goals". Truly though. That is the goal for a lot of people. In our generation it is so common for couples to get married and then divorce because they rushed into something they weren't ready for or whatever other excuse they come up with. Well maybe if you take the time to get to know your spouse before you get engaged and then get married you will end up like the grandparents in this song, together for 65 years. That's a long time to promise to somebody, but if it's the right somebody it will all be worth it. Your grandkids will look up to that relationship and have something to think about when they are planning their lives and future.

The song describes how two people build their lives together, and how nothing matters but the two of them. Two people spend their lives being all the other one needs. It is a lot to think about, but slowly this songs sinks into your head, making you wonder what your life will be like when you are older and start thinking about marriage and kids.

As a young lady this song definitely makes me think about the things I want in my future. I want a guy who will stand by my side through all the things life throws my way. This song just really hits home for me because it's everything a relationship should be to me. Two people giving it their all to make things work and put the other first. The song also grows into saying the couple that used to look up to their grandparents have turned into the grandparents. Even after 65 years they still love each other and do the little things like saying "I love you" and kissing each other goodnight. The little things in relationships are truly what makes them last.

If you are looking for real goals in life, this song highlights some pretty good ones. I'm hooked and can't get enough of the song!

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."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
