11 One Direction Songs That Are Still Bops

Recently, I've been listening to my favorite boyband of all time. One Direction. I've been surprised how I still remember almost every lyric and it comes back so easily, I've also been reminded how they still have some bops that never go away. If you're looking to make a little One Direction Throwback Playlist, here are some good ones to start with.

1. You Don't Know You're Beautiful

One Direction – What Makes You Beautiful (Official Video) Follow On Spotify – https://smarturl.it/1D_TTSp Listen on Apple Music – https://smarturl.it/1D_AMEs...



Now, I know this is a bit cliché but this is the first song of their's I remember listening to and 12 year-old-me can remember watching this video and falling in love for the first time with 5 people. This is a song that no matter how many times it is played or how many times you've listened to it, its still a pretty good jam.

2. One Thing 

I was walking through a store the other day and this song started playing. Immediately I was singing GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT OF MY HEAD, AND FALL INTO MY ARMS INSTEAD in the aisles. This is a big bop.

3. They Don't Know About Us 

2013 was an exciting year, and one of the most exciting things was one of the best albums- Midnight Memories- dropping. This album had a lot of jams on it, as the next few songs will depict. But this one was a slower and soulful song, that had 13 year old me dreaming it was me they were talking about (people didn't know about Niall and me and it was quite tragic)

4. Story of My Life 

Another great bop from Midnight Memories

5. Strong 

I'M SORRY IF I SAID I NEED YOU, BUT I DON'T CARE I'M NOT SCARED OF LOVE. CAUSE WHEN I'M NOT WITH YOU I'M WEAKER IS THAT SO WRONG? IS THAT SO WRONG? YOU MAKE ME STRONG" Enough said.

6. You & I

Once again, Midnight Memories brings a slower song that you just have to fall in love with.

7. Half a Heart 

Midnight Memories concluded with this beautiful and heart wrenching song. This song is still one of my go to's for a sad sing-a-long.

8. Night Changes 

This is another one of those songs that the radios will still play and it makes the Directioner in me so happy. It's a good, slow jam, but also has some pretty meaningful lyrics.

9. Love You Goodbye 

2015 brought a lot of changes. Caitlyn Jenner was introduced to the world, Star Wars released "The Force Awakens", and Zayn left One Direction. There was a lot of confusion and wondering what would happen next, but then One Direction released another banging album Made in the A.M. which in my opinion was one of their best albums overall.

This song is a slow and mournful ballad, but literally SO GOOD. And for a lot of us, it helped us handle the Zayn situation ("it's inevitable that everything that's good comes to an end"), while also relating to all the heartbreak and mournfulness that teenagers go through daily.

10. Perfect 

Made in the A.M. lastly had this song that is still such a good bop, and really is the perfect song to sing in your car at the top of your lungs.

11. Best Song Ever

Lastly, I must conclude with this song. This not only has a fitting name to end on, but the real reason this song is on this list is because of the amazing video that was released with this song. It was funny, iconic, and had dance moves for days. Still a bop.

One Direction is no longer together which is sad, but on the bright side there are individual careers to cheer on and follow with the hope of a reunion tour lurking in the back of all our hearts ;)

However, even though the group is no longer together, there are still amazing songs that we can listen to and jam out too! Directioners forever.

"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.
