Oh Summer, you're finally here and with you comes the unbearable heat, beach vacations, and jam sessions to make it the best season. I've got a feeling summer 2018 will be the best. Drake's newest album "Scorpion" drops at the end of June, and Ariana's album " Sweetener" dropping this August means Summer 2018 will be filled with music and jam sessions for everybody.

I personally love going for a drive and just putting on the radio to jam out to whatever comes on. These songs have obviously been played multiple times on the radio, hence me knowing the lyrics to the majority of the songs. Whether you're at a music festival, on summer vacation, or just sitting at home by the pool, there's a song for you and I've got you covered.

1. "Nice for What" by Drake

Once again Drake comes through with a single that will be played on repeat. This song speaks about female confidence, and the music video is filled with an all female cast including Yara Shahidi, Tracee Ellis Ross, and Emma Roberts—just to name a few.

If Drake's upcoming album is anything like this song, we're bound to have a great summer.

2. "I Like It" by Cardi B, Bad Bunny & J Balvin

Everyone step aside, this summer is Cardi B's summer. Once again she drops another bop that will leave you wanting more. Influenced by her Afro-Caribbean roots, salsa and 60's Boogaloo, this song will make you want to vacation in the Caribbean.

3. "No Tears Left To Cry" by Ariana Grande

This summer will be the summer for Ariana Grande. Her new album "Sweetener" comes out this August.

4. "In My Blood" by Shawn Mendes

There's nothing to say other than his voice is magical and so is his music.

5. "Never Be The Same" by Camila Cabello

Aren't you glad Camilla went down the solo career path? It's pretty obvious with her new music that she's grown as an artist after leaving 5th Harmony.

6. "One Kiss" by Dua Lipa, Calvin Harris

Let's all be honest and admit the music video reminds us of a poorly made 80s music video, but that shouldn't stop you from jamming out to this great summer jam.

7. "Delicate" by Taylor Swift

Confession Time: I'm a non-Swift who basically memorized the entire Reputation album... yes, it's that good.

8. "All The Stars" by Kendrick Lamar, SZA

Kendrick and SZA's voice are such a perfect blend. The line, "This may be the night that my dreams let me know" is a perfect reminder to follow you heart.

9. "There For You" by Martin Garrix & Troye Sivan

This is the perfect song to scream the chorus with your pals. What a perfect hype song, perfect for those fun summer nights.

10. "IDGAF" by Dua Lipa

Summer is when you cut off toxic people from your life and live your best life. Dua Lipa has the perfect anthem for this.

11. "Love Lies" by Khalid & Normani

It's Khalid and Normani, need I say more?

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
