It Be Like That Sometimes (but with music)

I've always viewed music as universal; it doesn't matter what language the lyrics are in, the message and tone of a song will always be relatable.

It Be Like That Sometimes (but with music)

Hey everyone! At this very moment, there's a lot going on in my life; from school to my internship and future applications to life in general. I've noticed that there have been times where I just get in a mood. During these times, I find myself turning to music more than ever. I believe that there's a song, and therefore a playlist, for every mood you could possibly have. This article highlights some of my favorites from these past few weeks from when I've needed to be reminded that everything will be okay.

1. Wave – Alex France

Just like the title says, it's all about trying to keep your head afloat. This song represents pushing through; the lyrics focus on keeping your head up through rough waters and waves, with the help of others. It's important to understand that we do have others to help us when we need to, to be excited and down with us when the situation calls for it.

2. Keep My Head Afloat – Jeremy Zucker

Just like the title says, it's all about trying to keep your head afloat. This song represents pushing through; the lyrics focus on keeping your head up through rough waters and waves, with the help of others. It's important to understand that we do have others to help us when we need to, to be excited and down with us when the situation calls for it.

3.The Human Condition – Chelsea Cutler

I think the title of the song speaks for itself.

4.talk is overrated (stripped.) – Jeremy Zucker

There are always going to be times when you simply don't feel like talking. You truly feel like talking becomes overrated because no words can help a situation. For me, I really click with the lyrics that say to just vibe. Sometimes things just take time to work themselves out, for better or for worse, and to move on from them.

5.Freedom – Mélusine, CHEF

This last song has a completely different vibe. Mélusine was introduced to me by my boyfriend, reminds me of him and his support. But, the song itself speaks of freedom (obviously). I take it as freedom to do what makes your heart happy, freedom to be passionate about whatever you please. With plant-related metaphors, it's all about growing through situations in order to find your place in life and what makes you happy.

These songs are just a few of my preferences, of course. Everything I've just written is my own opinion and they don't just apply to relationships + those kinds of issues. Most of the music I listen to is on the chiller side of things, but when a situation calls for it sometimes you need to branch out. Music provides people with an escape from their everyday lives and situations and these are just some of the songs that I listen to. Just wanted to share where my heart has been. Hope you like :)

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
