Sometimes you get into those moods where you need to blast some music and dance around to sassy girl power music with your girls. The next time you’re in that mood, cue up this playlist!

1. "Bad Reputation"- Joan Jett & The Blackhearts

When you feel like being a girl comes with too many criteria of what you have to do to be perfect, give these lyrics a listen and stop giving a damn.

2. "Me Too"- Meghan Trainor

You can’t be too obsessed with yourself, right?

3. "Pretty Hurts"- Beyonce

From "Single Ladies" to "Who Run The World" to "Diva", Bey certainly has a few girl power anthems, but none that describe the struggle to break the beauty obsession gripping women today like "Pretty Hurts" does.

4. "Man! I Feel Like A Woman"- Shania Twain

There’s no better song to hear when you want to celebrate being a woman...and if you need another excuse to have a night of fun for no reason, here it is.

5. "Love Myself"- Hailee Steinfeld

Despite the multiple meanings of this song, it’s about self love...in many ways.

6. "Confident"- Demi Lovato

In case the title doesn’t say it all, Demi’s backstory is about getting through years of self-doubt to love herself and eventually make a song that’s all about--well, what else? Confidence.

7. "Hurricane"- Halsey

All of Halsey’s music is about being a strong woman, but this song in particular is great.

8. "Pretty Girls"- Maggie Lindemann (Cheat Codes X Cade Remix)

She’s telling the world there’s more to her than her looks, and it’s a great dancing song, so what could be better?

9. "Most Girls"- Hailee Steinfeld

If you want to know why this song is great, check out this article I wrote on it.

10. "BO$$"- Fifth Harmony

Women can be as cute as Fifth Harmony AND work for their own money. Independent women, it’s time to dance.

11. "Masterpiece"- Jessie J

With all of these songs by strong women, it’s easy to think you need to be perfect right now. Here’s one to remind you it’s okay to still be working on yourself.

12. "Fight Song"- Rachel Platten

Girls can make incredible comebacks, and this song’s to that.

13. "Hair"- Lady Gaga

Any woman who’s ever been told they care too much about their hair will feel justified when they listen to this song. Guys just can’t understand.

14. "Sit Still, Look Pretty"- Daya

Women are here for way more than dressing cute and being eye candy, and Daya (and your friends, obviously) are ready to sing that to the world.

15. "Rock N' Roll"- Avril Lavigne

Refreshingly, this is a song that celebrates breaking the mold and being a girl who does whatever she wants, BUT in the song she is still with a guy--showing it’s just as okay to celebrate girl power in a relationship as it is outside of one.

16. "America’s Sweetheart"- Elle King

This song uses the stereotype of America’s Sweetheart to joke about how she will never be one, and how girls don’t need to aspire to be either.

17. "Try"- Colbie Caillat

Trying too hard is every middle schooler’s problem, and every grown woman's duty to sing away.

18. "Just A Girl"- No Doubt

For anyone feeling underestimated.

19. "Who Says"- Selena Gomez

A song about letting go of anyone who has ever told you you can’t do something, and doing it anyway.

20. "Not Your Way"- Misterwives

If you've ever been annoyed at women's current issues being swept under the rug because we should "look around and appreciate how far we've come", this song is for you.

21. "Wings"- Little Mix

Little Mix is a girl group full of girl power. All of their songs are empowering, but this one is especially good.

22. "You Don't Own Me"- Grace ft. G-Easy

For anyone who's ever had a partner try to make you "theirs" before you were your own, this is the song to blast.

23. "Who You Are"- Jessie J

Another song about giving up beauty ideals and deciding you look good the way you are, because you can never have enough.

24. "Woman"- Kesha

If you don't like cursing, skip this song. Otherwise, put it on twice.

25. "Who Said"- Hannah Montana

There’s just no way a good girl’s night can end in anything but a Hannah Montana throwback, it’s true.

Add and drop songs as you please, but make sure you have a night full of girl power and sass!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
