12 Songs That Will Cheer You Up
Courtney MacDougall

Feeling down? I would first suggest opening your Bible and spending some time with Jesus. Then hop in your car and listen to these jams. Whether you and your significant other just broke up or you just got a bad grade on a test, turning to music is always a great idea. It is a healthy outlet to turn to. Plato once said, "Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and gaiety to life and to everything." I know I definitely use music as an escape. Here are some songs that automatically cheer you up!

1. "Send Me on My Way" -- Rusted Root.


2. "Life Is a Highway" -- Rascal Flatts.


3. "Put Your Records On" -- Corinne Bailey Rae.


4. "Here Comes The Sun" -- The Beatles.

5. "Beautiful Day" -- U2.

6. "Ultimate" -- Lindsay Lohan.


7. "Ugly Heart" -- G.R.L.


8. "Love Myself" -- Hailee Steinfeld.

9. "You're Such A" -- Hailee Steinfeld.


10. "A Thousand Miles" -- Vanessa Carlton.


11. "Love on Top" -- Beyonce.


12. "Nobody's Perfect" -- Hannah Montana.

Hopefully you now feel a little better after listening to these songs!

We are living through, unequivocally, one of the most dangerous, unstable, chaotic periods of any of our lives. From COVID-19 to crises of police brutality to the mass exploitation of the poor by mega-corporations, the world outside seems to be looking more dystopic every day. What can be done about it? For many, activism involves heavily posting on social media to keep others aware. However, this comes with a net negative cost — increased levels of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness about the state of the world. Why might this be? After all, in past eras activists have endured comparable and greater levels of abuse and relentless torment from oppressors. Why, now, are people getting so easily burnt out?

"Arrested Development" is an award-winning sitcom that aired for three seasons on Fox beginning in 2003, and then was picked up by Netflix for a fourth season in 2013, and then again for a final season in 2018.

However, it seems to remain one of the world's most underrated and under-appreciated shows of all time. Although this article alone won't be enough to skyrocket the show to Netflix's top 10, I hope that it will open people's eyes to the value and quality of the show.

To The One Who Hasn't Quite Figured Out How To Love Herself Yet

It isn't just you.

I have always felt left out because of how I look and who I am. I have always felt like the elephant in the room, literally. I have always been shamed for my size. For the longest time, I cared so much about what I wear and who I wore certain things in front of. I never wanted to wear shirts that would show a lot of my arm, located above my elbow. I wouldn't wear shorts that didn't go to the tip of my knees, at least. I never wore anything remotely tight, where you could see every curve, roll, or imperfection. I was so insecure about myself, and not many of my friends knew.

Being a pharmacy technician never held as many risks as it does now. Exposure too hazardous conditions were little to none, and garbing up was only conducted in IV compounding. But, now, in order to give nurses the medications they need to help their patients, they need us, pharmacy technicians.

Ladies, listen up. If you are in a relationship with a guy and he is liking other girls' pictures on social media, then it's a red flag. A man who can look at someone else and show interest by liking it means he doesn't care about your feelings AT ALL.

Celebrities Stealing Designs From Small Fashion Labels Is NOT A Good Look, And They Need To Pay Up

When larger, more established figures or brands steal from lesser-known independent creators, they are taking opportunities away from these creators while also profiting from someone else's work and claiming it as their own.

One of the most popular genres in literature that everyone has read at least one book from is Young Adult fiction. Now, I personally can say that, in the past, I have been one of those people that only read from the YA section of the bookstore.
While there is absolutely nothing wrong with just reading one genre, it's good sometimes to venture out of your reading comfort zone into the other book genres of the literary world.

In a previous article, I discussed the importance and power of words. The perfect example of this is literature and its impact on the world. Books have always played a crucial part in human lives, from how we are able to expand our knowledge to how we pass our time.
