Music has always been a big part of everyone's lives, now especially, we rely on music to express our emotions, styles, and cultures. Some music has a very specific message even if you don't think it does, but sometimes, we don't care for a message and care about how it makes us feel. Here are some songs that you may not have heard before but they will definitely be on repeat for the next couple of weeks.

"Carried Away" - Passion Pit

"Carried Away" came out in 2012 before the release of Passion Pit's second studio album. This is definitely at the top of my "Feel Good" playlist. Makes you want to jump around and dance. If you're into Indie/alternative pop, you're definitely going to like this song and some of their other songs.

"Violet Hill" - Coldplay

Coming in with another Alternative/Indie song, "Violet Hill" came out in 2008 with their well-known album "Viva La Vida". This song was built around repetitive guitar sounds and unique rhythms. A great song to rock out and one that you should add to your workout playlist.

"Operator"(He Doesn't Call Me) - Låpsley

"Operator" has a little sad vibe, but an insanely upbeat tune. I've never had a song about a failing relationship make me wanna dance more than "Operator" did when I first listened to it. Released in 2016, this song is way too underrated and should be shown a lot more love.

"Losing You" - Boy Pablo

"Losing You" is also one of my favorite Indie/Alternative songs (I think we can say that indie is my favorite genre). This is a feel-good song that will make you shake your shoulders a little. Released in 2018, Boy Pablo was a favorite at festivals, and "Losing You" and a couple of other songs were definitely hits.

"Bad Idea" - Ariana Grande

My favorite song from the "Thank You Next" album is "Bad Idea". This song definitely one of the most underrated songs from the entire album. If you're not an Ariana Grande fan, and you haven't listened to the entire album, you might not have heard this one, but it's worth your time to listen to.

"For Him." - Troye Sivan

I was obsessed with this song in middle school and if I'm being honest, I still am. Released in 2015, with the rest of his album "Blue Neighborhood", healing from his past lover, but also a super fun song. It might seem a little sad when you're really invested in the lyrics, but the tune is lots of fun to dance around to.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. 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. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

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?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
