30 Throwback Jams From Middle School We All Forgot Existed

Tumblr

I think that everyone can agree on the fact that "throwbacks" are the best songs to listen to. While listening to throwback playlists on Spotify or Apple Music, it is easy to realize that the same songs are being played over and over again. However, there are a bunch of songs from years past that I can guarantee everyone forgot about, like...

1. "Without You" by David Guetta (Featuring Usher)

2. "Down" by Jay Sean and Lil Wayne

3. "Want to Want Me" by Jason Derulo

4. "Raise Your Glass" by P!nk

5. "Rather Be" by Clean Bandit (Featuring Jess Glynne)

6. "Don't Mind" by Kent Jones

7. "Lolly" by Maejor Ali (Featuring Juicy J & Justin Bieber)

8. "Heroes (We Could Be)" by Alesso

9. "Hello" by Martin Solveig (Featuring Dragonette)

10. "Work Out" by J. Cole

11. "E.T." by Katy Perry (Featuring Kanye West)

12. "#SELFIE" by The Chainsmokers

13. "Break Your Heart" by Taio Cruz and Ludacris

14. "Good Girls Go Bad" by Cobra Starship (Featuring Leighton Meester)

15. "Love Never Felt so Good" by Michael Jackson and Justin Timberlake

16. "Clarity" by Zedd and Foxes

17. "Waking Up In Vegas" by Katy Perry

18. "Let It Rock" by Kevin Rudolf and Lil Wayne

19. "Cooler Than Me" by Mike Posner (feat. Gigamesh)

20. "DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love" by Usher (feat. Pitbull)

21. "Somebody" by Natalie La Rose and Jeremih

22. "Timber" by Pitbull and Kesha

23. "Dynamite" by Taio Cruz

24. "Don't You Worry Child" by Swedish House Mafia (feat. John Martin)

25. "Stay the Night" by Zedd (feat. Hayley Williams)

26. "Wild Ones" by Flo Rida (feat. Sia)

27. "Problem" by Ariana Grande (feat. Iggy Azalea)

28. "Replay" by Zendaya

29. "Time of Our Lives" by Pitbull and Ne-Yo

30. "Domino" by Jessie J

At some point in all of our lives, these 30 songs were definitely in our playlists! We all played these songs over and over every single day for sure. They were once on the top 10 radio countdown and their music videos were on TV all the time, on so many channels. As cringe worthy some as of these songs are today, I think all of us can thank these artists for creating music that we listened through all throughout our childhood and our middle school days. I know for me, I can associate some of my favorite childhood, middle school, and camp memories with these songs!! These songs bring back so many good times in my life and while listening to them now, I can't help but smile and think back to the times where this was what was played on the radio everyday, or what was being played on my iPod at the time. All in all, I'm pretty thankful for these 30 throwbacks that I know everyone (including myself) forgot about.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

The holiday season is full of stress, debt, and forced conversation. While we rush through the month of December, it's important to take a step back and enjoy the moments before they're gone. Most families love to watch Christmas movies, but these beloved films provide more than entertainment. Here are 10 life lessons that I've learned from the holiday classics we watch every year.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

The holiday classics that shaped my life

1."But what would happen if we all tried to be like Santa and learned to give as only he can give: of ourselves, our talents, our love and our hearts? Maybe we could all learn Santa's beautiful lesson and maybe there would finally be peace on Earth and good will toward men."

"Sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see."

"If you won't use your heart, who cares if it gets broken? If you just keep it to yourself, maybe it'll be like my rollerblades. When you do decide to try it, it won't be any good. You should take a chance. Got nothing to lose."

"Remember, no man is a failure who has friends."

"Life is made up of meetings and partings. That is the way of it."

"If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find a that love actually is all around."

"Sometimes things look good on paper, but lose their luster when you see how it affects real folks. I guess a healthy bottom line doesn't mean much if to get it, you have to hurt the ones you depend on."

"'Maybe Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.'"

"Faith is believing when common sense tells you not to."

"There's room for everyone on the nice list."

Hopefully they will make you laugh.
