10 Songs I Definitely Wished My Middle School Crush Would Sing To Me That I Still Listen To Today

Middle school was most likely one of the most...interesting times of your life. You were trying to adopt your own sense of style, make new friends, and, of course, catch the attention of your crush. This crush most likely was all you thought about and how great it would be if you two got together. You probably imagined all the romantic things you could do together, and what's more romantic than someone singing to you? If I'm being perfectly honest, it's something I still wish would happen to me. And when I was in middle school, these were the songs I wanted my crush to sing to me. Although my middle school crush never got past talking to each other, I still listen to these songs because let's be real, they're certified BOPS.

1. "What Makes You Beautiful" by One Direction

There was literally nothing better than the thought of my crush thinking I was beautiful! I would have flipped if he thought I was the most beautiful girl in the room.

2. "Burning Up" by The Jonas Brothers

If my crush confessed that he had a burning passion for me (you know, like in middle school terms), I would have been so so happy. And I honestly would have started singing along with him because this song is just so fun.

3. "When You Look Me in the Eyes" by The Jonas Brothers

Another Jonas Brothers song! This one is my personal favorite .If my crush sang this song to me, I would cry. When I was in middle school, this was the most beautiful love song I had ever heard. This was my ideal song for my crush to sing to me.

4. "I'm Yours" by Jason Mraz

This song is just so chill and sweet, I immediately feel like I'm on the beach when I hear it. And any guy who could play the ukulele was an immediate winner to me when I was in middle school.

5. "Better Together" by Jack Johnson

Yes, there is nothing quite like being together with your crush. I would have loved to dance with someone to this song while he sang to me.

6. "Just The Way You Are" by Bruno Mars

Every middle school girl feels insecure about the way she looks. If a cute guy came up to me and told me I was beautiful the way I was, I guarantee you I'd fall for him in an instant.

7. "Hey Soul Sister" by Train

Seriously, was there anything more attractive than guys who could play the ukulele in middle school?

8. "Fix You" by Coldplay

Every middle school girl thinks she has this tortured soul that no one can understand except for her crush. So of course I wanted my crush to sing this song to me.

9. "Lego House" by Ed Sheeran

This song held the big hopes and dreams for a future. This song is colorful, bright, and so very happy. I would have loved it if my crush hoped for a future with me.

10. "Breaking Free" from High School Musical

Okay, so I envisioned this as more of a duet, but he would still be singing Troy's part to me! Troy and Gabriela were the ultimate relationship goals when I was in middle school, and I wanted nothing more to have a love story like theirs.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
