How Each Genre Of Music Affects A College Student's Mood

In This Article:

As students, our favorite habits are procrastinating, watching Netflix, ordering takeouts, and music. If anything binds us all, it's Music. Soulful, Rap, Classical, Retro, you name the genre. It affects us.

Now, what are some common genres students listen to and the moods associated with them? To be fair, there are so many genres to list; this would probably go on forever. But, college students pretty much have a choice to go for with every mood that settles in. We are or can get quite moody at times. So, why not make a nice playlist for each mood?

Rap

Giphy

Rap: Your basic everyday jam, regardless, especially if you are hurt there are some very good songs out there to get the "feels."

Instrumental

Giphy

Instrumental: Highly effective in motivating. Brings a sense of liberty and surrounds, especially with those epic instrumentals nowadays.

Romantic

Giphy

Romantic: Again, a rather everyday jam, but if you are in love, or feel like falling in love, this is your go to. All those Ed Sheeran songs really make me tear up and all lovey-dovey.

Jazz

Giphy

Jazz: Smooth, chill, especially for those who like jazz. Not many people I know understand the importance of jazz as a genre and as a historical genre.

Country

Giphy

Country: Soulful, blissful, energetic music that brings upon a weird but uplifting feeling. But, also depends on the song and what exam you failed.

Disco

Giphy

Disco: Never going out of style type of music. It's a rarity these days to hear real disco music but back in the days, disco music was as prevalent as ketchup on fries.

But, now might be a good time to sit down and make a fall/Christmas playlist. It's going to come handy soon!!!

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
