These Maisie Peters Tracks Are Pure Pop Perfection
Edited by Hailey Hastings

When I was thinking about starting this series where I broke down my “Top Ten” tracks by artists I love, I knew Maisie Peters had to be first up on the list. “The Good Witch” is all I've been listening to lately, and Maisie has genuinely soundtracked so much of the last few years of my life. I truly think she is the future of pop music, from the way she's able to master a chorus, a true larger-than-life pop chorus, to her relationship with her pen, all the makings are right there.

Stream “The Good Witch” here!

You’re Just A Boy (And I’m Kinda The Man)

This is such a Taylor Swift-coded song, and that chorus? That is the definition of pure pop perfection

And one hell of a way to let a man know the way you view him.

Favorite Lyric: “ I take in clowns like a one woman circus”


Brooklyn

I’ve only been to Brooklyn once, however, do i scream this song like someone who regularly is walking the streets of Brooklyn? Yes i do! The version of me that is desperate for a move to NYC to live out my Carrie Bradshaw dreams hangs onto this song like no other.

Favorite Lyric: “Come on have you seen those eyes? It’s nothing but the best for her”

Lost The Breakup

There simply isn’t a chorus that makes me scream louder than this one. This song came out not too long after a breakup with my boyfriend of a year, and i was looking around realizing i wasn’t sulking, and was living my life and screaming these lyrics with the biggest smile on my face.

Favorite Lyric: “I’m kinda busy, but Like, stay in touch??”

Favourite Ex

This song was my introduction to Maisie Peters (literally thank god for this song) and had me hooked from the very first listen. ‘Favorite Ex’ genuinely destroyed me. I don’t remember the last time i listened to this song and didn’t ugly cry. And hearing it live was genuinely a religious experience.

Favorite Lyric: “You were my gold rush to cold touch”

Elvis Song

I am an Elvis Stan and am always drinking cheap wine. it’s really that simple, Maisie Peters looked into my life and decided to write a song specifically for me.

Favorite Lyric: “I was scared to throw my heart off the edge”

The Band and I

This song genuinely makes me cry. it’s such a beautiful celebration of friendship and a precious kind of love. All of the callbacks to specific moments, the larger than life feel. I can just tell that in 10 years Maisie is still going to be singing these songs with these people and it’s something that i think is really incredible to be able to put to music.

Favorite Lyric: “It was magic, babe, pure and strong”

Coming of Age

The line “baby I’m the Iliad, of course you couldn’t read me” just by itself is enough to make this song make my top ten Maisie Peters tracks. I actually squealed when i heard it for the first time. ‘Coming of Age’ makes me feel like the main character and I want to soak up that energy as long as possible.

Favorite Lyric: Baby, I’m the Iliad, of course you couldn't read me”

Blonde

As an unhinged girl who also dyed her hair Blonde on impulse, I couldn’t relate to this song more. Maisie truly took over TikTok when this track came out, everyone was dying their hair and forgetting about their exes, it was beautiful.

Favorite Lyric: Is that an angel? No, it’s your ex.”

Wendy

The lyrics to this song are absolutely top tier. “Behind every lost boy there’s always a Wendy” is just unreal. This song feels timeless, and in my opinion, is the most singer-songwriter-forward track on The Good Witch. Which is really saying something, Considering the relationship to her pen we are seeing Maisie flex throughout the duration of The Good Witch

Favorite Lyric: “What about my wings? What about Wendy?”

Cate’s Brother

‘Cate’s Brother’ was a cultural reset. Genuinely. The whole of TikTok was captivated, me included. Going absolutely feral for this track. And guess what? I still am.

Favorite Lyric: Love him. he’s the one and we shall wed”

28 Daily Thoughts of College Students

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

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.
