You thought angst was over once you moved on from the eighth grade? LOL, good one. It's 2 a.m., the librarians are flickering the lights and staring into your soul until you leave. You're just trying to be studious and end the semester on a good note by passing your finals, but now you're all pissed off, on top of all the stress finals already induce. Here's a playlist you can listen to when it seems like no one understands your struggles and you're beginning to lose hope. So sit back, relax, and get in the mood to punch a wall, because whatever you're doing at this point in your life is definitely the most important thing you'll ever do.
"I'm Just A Kid" by Simple Plan
"And it seems everyone in the world is having more fun than me tonight." My thoughts exactly while looking at everyone else's Snapchat stories as I'm locked in the library.
"Sugar, We're Going Down" by Fall Out Boy
This one goes out to my GPA.
"Misery Business" by Paramore
Finals season is very much the business of misery.
"Perfect" by Simple Plan
I'M SORRY I CAN'T BE PERRRRRFECT
"What's My Age Again?" by Blink-182
The lack of sleep and immense amount of stress has you looking like more of a meth addict than a college student, but Blink totally understands the identity crisis you're going through.
"I Hate Everything About You" by Three Days Grace
This one covers the love-hate (but mainly hate) relationship you have with school.
"All Downhill From Here" by New Found Glory
If we're being honest, sometimes positivity is overrated.
"In Too Deep" by Sum 41
Seriously, though, taking six classes and two labs was a terrible, terrible idea.
"The Science of Selling Yourself Short" by Less Than Jake
This is a good one that helps you embrace your failure, and accept the fact that the procrastination is all your fault, but you'll survive.
"Welcome To My Life" by Simple Plan
Catch the trend. Simple Plan is angst. Don't even pretend like this one doesn't give you flashbacks to staring out the window of the bus in seventh grade.
"The Middle" by Jimmy Eats World
I know I said positivity was overrated, but at this point, it's also needed. This song helps you look at the glass half full.
"Over My Head (Better Off Dead)" by Sum 41
Sum 41 offers neat alternatives to studying!
"American Idiot" by Green Day
Green Day is here to remind you why you're putting yourself through all this stress.
