10 Songs To Get You Through A Long Work Week

We all have those weeks that feel even longer than eternal and just make us want to quit altogether. As the year begins to come to an end, the workload continues to intensify. However, I've found these ten songs to be something fun to look forward to during the long days and weeks.

1. Shake it Off by Taylor Swift

This is a perfect song for when you are trying to rid yourself of negative energy and just be you! Shake off the haters and keep doing your thing!

2. Last Friday Night by Katy Perry

Even though it might only be Tuesday, this song reminds you that the weekend is coming soon. Keep pushing through to get to Friday!

3. Barcelona by Ed Sheeran

This song is great for the middle of the week when you wish you were...well, anywhere but here!! Escape to Spain, or whatever your happy place is.

4. Confident by Demi Lovato

If Monday blues have your spirits down, allow Demi to remind you that if you can dream it, you can do it!

5. Break the Rules by Charlie XCX

This song is relatable for all of us at one point in the week, when it seems the only way to escape work is by crossing some boundaries. You might not actually be able to break any rules, but at least you can live vicariously through the song.

6. 24K Magic by Bruno Mars

It might not be pay day yet, but listen to this song as you think about all of the amazing things you'll be able to buy when you get that deposit.

7. Here's To Never Growing Up by Avril Lavigne

Just because you're a ~working~ adult now, it doesn't mean that you still can't act like a child. Don't ever allow yourself to completely grow up!

8. Thrift Shop by Macklemore

So maybe you've got no money now without your paycheck, but who says you can't have a little fun and go thrifting to pass the time?

9. Successful by Ariana Grande

Remind yourself that this isn't all for nothing, you've been pretty successful so far!! Keep doing what you're doing.

10. Congratulations by Post Malone

Hopefully by the time you've reached this song, you're feeling a little better about your week. And don't worry, all of your hard work is going to pay off, so congratulations!

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows.
