Because music is there, when people are not...

Saved by the Music

These are just some of the songs that have helped me get through hard times & still do. At first, I was going to try and talk about how each song has inspired and affected me as a person, but there was no way I could put it into words, so instead, I made a list. Whether it's a song itself, a meaningful lyric or the overall message of a song, I hope anyone going through a tough time can breathe a little easier knowing that music is always something they can count on. If you're feeling alone and like no one understands trying putting in your earbuds and tune out the world, even if it's just for a little bit. If you're reading this, just know you're strong and you are capable of getting through even the worst of times. You are worth it.

  • Warrior – Demi Lovato
  • A little too much – Shawn Mendes
  • Don't Be So Hard on Yourself – Jess Glynne

  • Rescue – Lauren Daigle
  • Better Days – Goo Goo Dolls
  • Let Me Hold You – Josh Krajcik
  • Invincible – Kelly Clarkson
  • Rise Up – Andra Day
  • Supermarket Flowers – Ed Sheeran
  • Praying – Kesha
  • 1-800-273-8255 - Logic, Alessia Cara & Khalid

  • Love Triangle – RaeLynn
  • I'll Be There – Jess Glynne
  • Landslide – Stevie Nicks

  • This Song Saved My Life – Simple Plan

These aren't in any specific order and as you can see the songs aren't by one specific artist and don't belong to a particular genre. Each one of these songs has had an effect on me for the better. Music has played a considerable part in helping me recover and has helped me become a more open-minded person! (Also, these songs are a matter of personal opinion)

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
