A playlist that I continually add to.

Rad Songs For Any Occasion

Sometimes you just need to let loose. Other times you're bored out of your mind. The few times that are not encapsulated by the previously mentioned, usually include moments in which people listen to music for no obvious reason. Whether it be to pass time on a long ride, to help get through situations, or to simply fill empty space - music works wonders. Each song in the playlist works well alone as well as together, in no particular order. But here's my current personal top 21 (you can decide for yourself whether the songs are numbered from the top of the list or the "bottom"... either way, I greatly enjoy each song).

21.) Hell No - Ingrid Michaelson

20.) Do You - Spoon

19.) Molasses - Hiatus Kaiyote

18.) One Day Like This - Elbow

17.) Teenage Dirtbag - Walk Off the Earth

16.) Long Way Down - Tom Odell

15.) Brill Bruisers - The New Pornographers

14.) I Found You - Alabama Shakes

13.) Gibraltar - Beirut

12.) Change of Seasons - Sweet Thing

11.) Roman Candle - Elliot Smith

10.) Greek Tragedy - The Wombats

9.) Squealing Pigs - Admiral Fallow

8.) Take It or Leave It - Cage The Elephant

7.) Naive - The Kooks

6.) Two Weeks - Grizzly Bear

5.) Be Yourself - Frank Ocean

4.) Better Together - Us The Duo

3.) I Wanna Get Better - Bleachers

2.) Blessings - Chance The Rapper

1.) Giants in the Sky - Daniel Huttlestone

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
