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.

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?

sisters

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.
