2016 is over! (thank goodness!!)

Let's recap all the bad things happened in this last year.

Donald Trump was elected President of the United States of America

The DEVASTATING Orlando massacre that occurred at Pulse Nightclub

The awful terrorist attacks in Nice (France), Istanbul, and Brussels (Belgium)

Hurricane Matthew

DISNEY Gator Attack

We lost amazing talent such as Prince, Alan Rickman, Muhammad Ali, David Bowie, Nancy Reagan, Gene Wilder, Carrie Fisher, and Debbie Reynolds

Harambe was shot dead at the Cincinnati Zoo

I think it's safe to say that most of us would like to leave 2016 behind us. However, 2016 was not all bad as it brought us some amazing music. 2016 was filled with songs about love, heartbreak, and living life.

Here's a list of my top 10 songs from 2016 accompanied by my favorite lyrics. These songs are the only part of 2016 I'd like to keep.


1. Closer - The Chainsmokers feat. Halsey

I know it breaks your heart
Moved to the city in a broke down car
And four years, no call
Now I'm looking pretty in a hotel bar
And I can't stop
No, I can't stop

2. Heathens - Twenty One Pilots

All my friends are heathens, take it slow
Wait for them to ask you who you know
Please don't make any sudden moves
You don't know the half of the abuse

3. Bad Things - Machine Gun Kelly & Camilla Cabello

I want you forever
Even when we're not together
Scars on body so I look at you whenever

4. This Is What You Came For - Calvin Harris feat. Rihanna

Baby, this is what you came for
Lightning strikes every time she moves
And everybody's watching her
But she's looking at you, oh, oh

5. Needed Me - Rihanna

I was good on my own, that's the way it was, that's the way it was

6. Treat You Better - Shawn Mendes

I'll stop time for you
The second you say you'd like me to
I just wanna give you the loving that you're missing
Baby, just to wake up with you
Would be everything I need and this could be so different
Tell me what you want to do

7. Mercy - Shawn Mendes

Please have mercy on me
Take it easy on my heart
Even though you don't mean to hurt me
You keep tearing me apart

8. Cold Water - Major Lazer feat. Justin Bieber

Everybody gets high sometimes, you know
What else can we do when we're feeling low?
So take a deep breath and let it go
You shouldn't be drowning on your own

9. Let Me Love You - DJ Snake feat. Justin Bieber

I used to believe
We were burnin' on the edge of somethin' beautiful

10. Love Me Now - John Legend

I don't know who's gonna kiss you when I'm gone
So I'm gonna love you now, like it's all I have
I know it'll kill me when it's over
I don't wanna think about it, I want you to love me now

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
