Music is not only great for expression, enjoyment, and entertainment, but it is also significant socially. It has such a far reach and is truly an international platform. Not only does it travel the world, but music brings people together. People of all ages, races, and locations can listen to and enjoy the same music, making it one of the fastest traveling and easily shared forms of media. Music supports many people, places, things, and can serve as a way to get a message or idea across. While the music world may be ever changing and adapting, no music is ever irrelevant or forgotten. Anyone from any age or era can listen to songs from years before or years after them. Songs like “We are the World”, “Same Love” by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis promote messages for helping others, and a song as simple as the “Star-Spangled Banner” can unite an entire country. Apple Music, Spotify, Pandora, Sound Cloud, ITunes, and more have billions of songs written by billions of artists and one can find anything with the click of a button. These are some GREAT women empowerment songs you should listen to:

  • Run the World (girls) by Beyoncé
    • “Who run the world? GIRLS!”
    • If you didn’t know, now you do!
    • “Strong enough to bear the children”, Hell yeah we are
  • All about that bass by Meghan Trainor
    • Helps promote positive body images for larger women
    • “Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top”, always true
    • “Don’t worry about your size”, this just helps reinforce the truth, women come in all shapes, colors, and sizes and they are all beautiful in their own way
  • Stronger (What doesn’t kill you) by Kelly Clarkson
    • This just helps to prove that women don’t need a man

    • All women are beautiful, It doesn’t matter what other people say

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
