The Songs That Got Me Through January
Cigarettes After Sex

It’s a rare occurrence to find me without headphones in. I am either listening to music or thinking about what my next download is going to be (thanks Apple Music). In honor of January coming to a close, here are some of the songs, in no particular order, that got me through the first month of 2017.

April's Daydream- Devonte Hynes

From the movie Palo Alto, starring James Franco and Emma Roberts. This is the song I find myself putting on late at night when I can’t sleep or on my early morning walk to my 8 AM.

Say You Won't Let Go- James Arthur

A song I first heard from a dance video on Instagram, and ever since I’ve been hooked.

Like A Rolling Stone- Bob Dylan

A classic. Enough said.

Nothing’s Gonna Hurt You Baby- Cigarettes After Sex

The song that makes you look at the passenger side window of a car and imagine your life as a film.

All We Ever Knew- The Head and the Heart

I saw this live in December and it still has me hooked. A song I play when I need a pick me up after a rough day or when I need some inspiration.

Tiny Dancer- Elton John

This song will be a favorite every single month for the rest of my life. Nothing better than singing this one at the top of your lungs with your best friends driving down the freeway.

On Hold- The xx

The xx with yet another hit song.

Still Breathing- Green Day

Green Day will always be in my heart, and after seeing them live a few months ago I can die happily.

White Blank Page- Mumford & Sons

Mumford & Sons always tugs at my heart strings, and ever since this one came on my Pandora a few weeks ago it’s been playing nonstop.

That’s the Way- Led Zeppelin

Another classic, that will never get old.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
