I love two things: road trips and John Mayer, so why not talk about them both? In my opinion, no road trip is complete without songs by John Mayer. Whether it's his well-known hits or his lesser-known songs, John Mayer's voice, lyrics, and music embody the essence of a road trip. Here is two hours and three minutes worth of John Mayer songs for a road trip!

1. "Queen of California" (Born and Raised)

This song has to be first because it's perfect when you're, "goin' out west with your headphones on".

2. "Call Me The Breeze" (Paradise Valley)

3. "Wildfire" (Paradise Valley)

4. "Helpless" (The Search for Everything)

5. "Why Georgia" (Room for Squares)

The setting of this song is on the road so it's a great choice.

6. "New Deep" (Heavier Things)

7. "Rosie" (The Search for Everything)

8. "Love on the Weekend" (The Search for Everything)

9. "Half of My Heart" (Battle Studies)

This may not be a popular opinion, but I love this song for road trips because of the fun bass line and upbeat but clean drum sounds.

10. "Something Like Olivia" (Born and Raised)

11. "On The Way Home" (Paradise Valley)

12. "No Such Thing" (Room for Squares)

13. "Bold As Love" (Continuum)

14. "Waiting On The World To Change" (Continuum)

15. "In Your Atmosphere" (Where the Light Is)

One of my all-time favorites by John Mayer, it's perfect to kind of bring you down to earth after "Waiting on the World To Change".

16. "Still Feel Like Your Man" (The Search for Everything)

17. "Heartbreak Warfare" (Battle Studies)

18. "Perfectly Lonely" (Battle Studies)

19. "Roll It On Home" (The Search for Everything)

20. "Stop This Train" (Continuum)

21. "Walt Grace's Submarine Test, January 1967" (Born and Raised)

Something about this song and a long open road is so philosophical.

22. "Edge of Desire" (Battle Studies)

23. "Say" (Say-Single)

24. "Back To You" (Room for Squares)

25. "Your Body Is a Wonderland" (Room for Squares)

26. "War Of My Life" (Battle Studies)

27. "Love Song for No One" (Room for Squares)

28. "Moving On and Getting Over" (The Search for Everything)

29. "The Age of Worry" (Born and Raised)

Belting out "worry why should I care" at the top of your lungs while driving is such a satisfying feeling, trust me.

30. "I Will Be Found" (Paradise Valley)

This song is at the end because I love the message of this while you arrive at your destination, ultimately being "found" per say.


I decided to make a playlist with all these songs in it, so if you have Apple Music then feel free to check it out on your next road trip or you can recreate the same playlist in your own music library! Some other good things to listen to by John Mayer would be his entire Born and Raised album and Paradise Valley album; both are great road trip albums.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
