It's only been a few weeks since the semester has started, and we begin the countdown towards summer vacation. In between now and then is a whole lot of days, some harder than the others. Music is one of the few things I use to keep myself sane the entire time. Here are a few songs I use to keep my head up and wade through the challenge that is life.

1. "The Luck You Got" by The High Strung

&a<span id="selection-marker-1" class="redactor-selection-marker"></span>mp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;lt;span id="selection-marker-1" class="redactor-selection-marker"></span>

You ran late to class. You have a paper due by the end of the week. The price for books could buy you a small car. The cafeteria lines are impossibly long. But hey, at least you got some friends to go through it with.

2. "Knee Deep" by Zac Brown Band

<span id="selection-marker-1" class="redactor-selection-marker"></span>

You’ve only been back for a few weeks, and you’re already counting down the days till summer. The feeling of the sand between your toes and sun on your skin is what keeps you going.


3. "Eye of The Tiger" by Survivor


We all need a little motivation.

4. "Don’t Stop" by Fleetwood Mac


You might’ve had a bad day, but doesn’t mean it’ll be a bad week. You never know what the next day holds. Except for that quiz in English, that’s tomorrow.

5. "Moral of the Story" by Watsky


The moral of the story is, you’ve got to work for what you want, and its gonna take some blood, sweat, and a lot of tears. And punching a dragon, maybe.

6. "Sweet Dreams" by Eurythmics


That paper is due tomorrow morning, its already 9, and all you’ve put is your name and the date on it. You open up a can of red bull and get a pot of coffee ready. It’s gonna be a long night. Time to go to work.

7. "The Nights" by Avicii


Remember, sometimes it’s good to relax too. College is one of the most interesting times of your life, so go out and live it.

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.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. 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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. 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. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
