I don't know about you, but I still rock to Hannah Montana on a daily basis. Her songs are scattered through my modern playlist, and on my walks to class, gangster swagger generated from explicit rap songs will transform into an 8-year-old pop diva's stride. I have no shame.
Hannah Montana strutted her way through the ups and downs of life - hence, us college students can take some of her advice. Her myriad songs ranging from topics on love, life, and the world can help us acknowledge some doings of our own. #hannahmontanaforever
1. "Nobody's perfect"
Hannah Montana gets it. Some people may seem like they have it all put together, but, in reality, we are all college students trying to roll out of bed at 3 p.m., find a dollar in the depths of our bags, and concealing our dark circles under our eyes.
2. "In some ways you're just like all your friends, but on stage you're a star"
There is something special about being different, showing off your talents, standing out from the crowd. Don't be afraid to step away from your friends and show them what you've got!
3. "He's got somethin' special. He's got somethin' special. I can hardly breathe somethin's tellin' me."
Ladies, don't lie to me, we've all been here. #icantbreathe
4. "Don't get me wrong, I love who I am. I don't wanna be ungrateful."
We all know that confidence is key, but let's admit it— we don't always feel 100%. We have all wanted to change something about ourselves at one point or another.
5. "Sometimes I'm lazy, I get bored. I get scared, I feel ignored. I feel happy, I get silly. I choke on my own words."
We are all messes underneath our perfect social media pages.
6. "Take the world. Shakin', stirrin'. That's what I've goin' on. I throw my cares up in the air."
It's college! You'll never get these years back in your life! Don't forget to have fun (and be safe)!
7. "I know where I stand. I know who I am. I would never run away when life gets bad. Everything I see. Every part of me. Gonna get what I deserve. I got nerve!"
Sing these words in front of a music while standing tall— your confidence stance— and you will be ready to conquer the day. #carpediem
8. "But if we help (but if we all can help). We can defeat (We can defeat)."
The world is a mess, but all together we can do our part and start putting the pieces back together. #spreadlove
9. "So what you see. Is only half the story. There's another side of me."
I may be smiling on the outside, but I swear college is slowly killing me.
10. "It's a crazy life, but I'm just fine."
I'm fine! I swear! I'm just fine!
11. "You procrastinate the world, it's gonna pass you by. Already runnin' late. It's either runnin' bad or fly."
Come on guys, hop off the procrastination station.
12. "Everybody gets that way. Everybody makes mistakes. Everybody has those days."
When she says everybody, she means EVERYBODY! Even the Instagram-famous models and that girl in class that the boys drool over.
13. "I gotta work it."
No matter what you're wearing, how you look, or what other's think, you gotta work it!
14. "I set out on a narrow way many years ago, hoping I would find true love along the broken road. But I got lost a time or two, wiped my brow and kept pushing through."
Life is a rollercoaster, but it's up to you to keep enduring the rush!
15. "I'm gonna put on my old blue jeans, gonna walk out of here onto the street."
Be who you are! Don't let anyone stop you from putting on those sweatpants and Uggs, those red lips, those crazy socks, and heels.
