My Top 10 Songs of 2016

I love music...plain and simple. I honestly despise the radio because it replays the same songs over and again. By then, that "new hit" that keeps playing quickly becomes old and outplayed. That is why Spotify is life. Through Spotify, I have discovered several amazing artists that I never would've found by listening to the radio. I recently received an email from Spotify saying that a playlist was created for me based on the songs that I played countless times throughout the year. Based on this 101 songs playlist, I decided to pick my top 10 favorite songs.

1. "Distraction"- Kehlani

Kehlani is a Contemporary R&B singer from Oakland, California who continues to become more and more well-known in the music industry. After being on "America's Got Talent," she started her career with a mixtape called "Cloud 19," followed by another mixtape called "You Should Be Here." Her voice is unique and beautiful. Check out her music on Spotify!

2. "No Problem"- Chance The Rapper

"If one more label try to stop me..." Every time this song comes on, a bolt of energy just runs through my body. I never get tired of it. This is an amazing song, along with his amazing mixtape.

3. "Child's Play"- Drake

This song was from the "Views" album that was a major success. This is probably my favorite song from the album.

4. "On The Way"- TWENTY88

This artist is actually Big Sean and Jhene Aiko combined. They created a magical album together, and they're going to release another one together soon. They're dating, in case you were wondering.

5. "Be Alright"- Ariana Grande

Hands down, she's one of my favorite artists. I love her soulful voice, and it gives me chills.

6. "Pink + White"- Frank Ocean

This is a slow song, but it is so beautiful. It took him forever to release his second album "Blond," but was his album all that it was hyped up to be? You decide.

7. "Zaddy"- Ty Dolla $ign


Yes, the girl's voice in the intro is indeed Keke Palmer!

8. "Die For You"- The Weeknd

Even though his new album is pretty recent, the year isn't over just yet! This is one of the most beautiful songs that I've ever heard. I mean just look at the title of the song.

9. "That's What I Like"- Bruno Mars


Bruno Mars' new album is EVERYTHING. Listen and find out for yourself.

10. "You Love It"- Roy Woods

For those of you who do not know Roy Woods' music, you're missing out on greatness!!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

There have been many lessons learned.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
