Summer, my favorite time of the year. A season of warm weather, outings with friends and of course, my birthday! (fellow cancers, where ya at?) Everything about this time of the year is amazing.

Unfortunately, we haven't been able to experience this summer to its fullest because of COVID-19. Fortunately, there are many ways to keep yourself occupied amidst all the disarray, music being my ultimate form of escape.

K-Pop is a genre of music that has recently been sweeping the playlists of my generation, and it has offered comfort during these uncertain times. These summer jams are more than just ordinary songs, they're a source of ease during a time of uncertainty. So without further ado, here are four K-Pop songs that'll get you up and moving through the rest of summer quarantine.

1. Summer- Pentagon

First up, we have up-and-coming rookie group Pentagon. Their single "Summer" is perfect for this time of the year, hence the name. Its soft melody make it an easy listen, and the beautiful harmonization between members Kino and Hui will put you into a transcendental mood. It's a perfect listen for this time of the year.

2. Very Nice- Seventeen

Let's start with the fact that Seventeen is currently one of the best hoobae groups in the industry. This song is captivating from the beginning, opening with dramatic scenery and transparent choreography that is executed perfectly. The liveliness of the track is evident from the chorus, and when that beat drops, it DROPS! The song embodies the spirited aspect of summer, and it'll definitely get you up and moving.

3. Ko Ko Bop- EXO

You CANNOT have a list of K-Pop songs without including EXO's 2017 summer comeback hit "Ko Ko Bop." The veteran group never fails to deliver, and their raw talent is presented in Ko Ko Bop. The song's versatility is evident from the get-go, opening with stunning visuals from members Kai and Suho. With its reggae flow, hallucinogenic imagery and 80s throwback aesthetic, this breezy single is the perfect anthem for any summer occasion.

4. Boy With Luv- BTS

And last, but certainly not least, we have the boyband phenomenon of K-Pop, BTS. Their 2019 Single "Boy With Luv" broke numerous records, including the largest YouTube debut in 24 hours. The song is a beautiful euphoric melody fused with feminine aesthetics. Their pastel regalia compliments the song's theme and highlight the brightness of summer. This song is a chart-topper that holds longevity and the power to dominate your summer playlist.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
