With the recent inauguration of President Trump, I was reflecting on President Obama's time in office, and thinking about 2016 in general. Here are 10 songs that perfectly described 2016 for me and probably most college students like me.

1. Sugar We're Going Down- Fall Out Boy

School and money and obligations, oh my!

2. Everybody Hurts- R.E.M

      This song was written by the drummer of the band, Bill Barry. Barry wanted to let people know that everybody goes through hard times, and (to quote High School Musical) we're all in this together.

      3. Highway to Hell - AC/DC

          This song perfectly sums up the election. 2016 is a year we will never forget. A day wouldn't pass where I wouldn't see a Trump bumper sticker, a Hillary sign, or even a "Feel The Bern" t-shirt. The election left the country politically divided, and in the end, we all knew there was going to be a loser.

          4. Oh No! - Marina and the Diamonds

          "Don't do love, don't do friends, I'm only after success." 2016 might not have been the greatest, but let's make 2017 about YOU.

              5. Survivor Destiny's Child

                "After all of the darkness and sadness still comes happiness"

                  6. American Idiot- Green Day

                    Those times throughout the year that we weren't too proud of...

                    7. Come Together- The Beatles

                      2016 seemed divided at times, yet there were times of unity and togetherness which be thankful for. Just think of all we accomplished this year...

                        8. Bye Bye Bye- NSYNC

                            Hasta la vista, 2016.

                            9. Migrane- Twenty One Pilots

                                By the time finals roll around, we all have a migrane.

                                10. Thnks fr th Mmrs- Fall Out Boy

                                  2016 was full of many memories, whether happy, exciting, or upsetting. Thanks for the memories 2016, you won't be missed.

                                  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.

                                  Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

                                  Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

                                  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.

                                  Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

                                  Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

                                  Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

                                  Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

                                  Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

                                  The people that spend their summers at the lake are a unique group of people.

                                  Whether you grew up going to the lake, have only recently started going, or have only been once or twice, you know it takes a certain kind of person to be a lake person. To the long-time lake people, the lake holds a special place in your heart, no matter how dirty the water may look.
