12 Songs Every Former Emo Kid Knows By Heart

Odyssey

Let's face it. Everyone has been there and done that when it comes to the emo lifestyle. Once upon a time, you had the jelly bracelets, studded belts, and black Chucks. Here are 12 songs every former emo kid knows by heart!

1. "Makedamnsure" by Taking Back Sunday

The perfect breakup emo song. And let's face it - the fact there are no spaces between the title words, made it so edgy.

2. "Perfect" by Simple Plan

Your go-to song anytime you had a fight with your parents.

3. "Misery Business" by Paramore

The ultimate revenge song for any breakup. Not to mention you secretly wanted Haley Williams' hair.

4. "Scars" by Papa Roach

The song you listen to when you just cared too much and everyone let you down.

5. "Ohio Is For Lovers" by Hawthorne Heights

The song you listened to when you wanted to hear just a touch of screamo.

6. "Helena" by My Chemical Romance

Because you were simply in love with Gerard Way and his guyliner. Plus the dancing in the music video was just amazing.

7. "Sugar We're Going Down" by Fall Out Boy

FOB really helped you fall into the Emo phase. All the eyeliner and trucker hats were what drew you in.

8. "Miss Murder" by AFI

Two words. Lip ring.

9. "Miserable at Best" by Mayday Parade

Because this song spoke the truth about moving on and letting go. It's simply hard.

10. "I Write Sins Not Tragedies" by Panic! At The Disco

Because the circus theme drew you in. And his voice finished the job.

11. "The Anthem" by Good charlotte

The song that told you to raise a middle finger and rebel against everything and everyone.

12. "All That I've Got" by The Used

Because we can all relate to the days we just wanted to sleep off our bad days alone.

Want to turn back time? Here's the playlist that will make your Emo heart whole again.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.

21. “Darling, I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream.”

22. “Find me where the wild things are.”

23. “I’m high on lovin’ you.”

24. “If you’re gonna be somebody’s heartbreak, somebody’s mistake, if you’re gonna be somebody’s first time, somebody’s last time, be mine.”

25. “Don’t be afraid to take the road less traveled on.”

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

1. "Talk about a dream
Try to make it real
You wake up in the night
With a fear so real
Spend your life waiting
For a moment that just don't come
Well don't waste your time waiting." (Badlands)
