1. Hamilton


Hamilton is my number one because it is amazing and Lin Manuel Miranda is a god. ‘Nough said.
My Shot: This song is my number one because it is the first hamilton song I learned all the words to, so it will forever be my favorite.
Say No To This: A completely underrated song. How can you not love this song?
Yorktown: I live for this song for this reason, and this reason only " Hercules Mulligan, I need no introduction. When you knock me down I get the f**k back up again!”

2. Mamma Mia!


Mamma Mia! Is my second because I saw this ABBA-inspired musical 6 times in my 18 years of life before it left Broadway. This musical will always be in my heart.
Mamma Mia: ICONIC.
Our Last summer: this song forces you to reminisce about life
Dancing Queen: If this song doesn’t get you singing and dancing, you need help.

3. Dear Evan Hansen


Have yet to see this one live, but the music is amazing and the musical turns a dark and deep topic into something amazingly beautiful.
You Will Be Found: This song reminds me that I am not alone and it’s okay to not be okay.
Sincerely, Me: This song is a breath of fresh air, it gives us some comedic relief.
If I Could Tell Her: Iconic love song, never fails to make me smile.

4. Hairspray


Another musical that should still be on the big stage. Like Mamma Mia! I saw this musical numerous times. The story line and musical number made me want to get up and sing every time.
You Can’t Stop The Beat: This song takes every underestimated character and puts them in the spotlight for a minute.
Without Love: This song shows that girls, no matter their looks, can get the guy.
I Can Hear The Bells: This song is the song i think of when I get the butterflies.

5. Grease


Grease In my opinion had a good run. It was time to go but, Nonetheless I love the music.
Grease Lightning: No comment needed. It's super catchy.
Summer Nights: We all sing super high on the sandy parts… Just admit it.
We Go Together: Another one that makes you want to get up and dance.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
