13 Songs For 13 Miles
Anna Tust

A half marathon is a pretty long ways if you ask me. 13 whole miles of running is typically not my type of fun. Some people can run on pure adrenaline, but I'm also not that kind of person. Music is what I use to fuel my runs, especially the long ones. Clearly this isn't enough music to get me through almost 3 hours of running but, here are 13 of my favorite songs that help me to get through 13 miles!

1. Dessert - Dawin ft. Silento

Trust me Dawin, the dessert is the first thing I’m looking forward to the minute I’m done running.


2. Gibberish - MAX ft. Hoodie Allen

If you try to talk to me while I’m running, I can promise all that will come out of my mouth will be gibberish.

3. Team - Iggy Azalea

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. Iggy knows how to make me feel like quite the empowered woman.



4. Guillotine - Jon Bellion

The French may have thought a guillotine was good punishment…they also could have used running, for sure.


5. 2 Phones - Kevin Gates

Well Kevin Gates, you may have 2 phones, but I have 2 legs .. that will carry my 13 whole miles…hopefully…if we’re lucky…



6. Coffee Break - Kyle Lucas

As nice as a coffee break sounds, I’m sure a water break would be even nicer!



7. My Couch - Jake Miller

Yeah, I’d definitely rather be on my couch too…


8. Tidal Wave - EVVY

Did we lose everything in the tidal wave? I mean I didn’t but I sure look like I got hit with one based on how much I’m sweating…



9. How I Want Ya (Dawin Remix) - Hudson Thames ft. Hailee Steinfeld

In this case, "how I want ya" refers to my feelings towards the food at the end, or maybe even a bottle of water.



10. Fergalicious - Fergie

If Fergie is still up in the gym just working on her fitness, I think that means I better be too..


11. Does Ya Mama Know (Dance Like That) - 99 Percent

I don’t have a clever catch line for this song, but it gets me hyped every time it comes on. Every single time.


12. Panda - Desiigner

Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda. Panda.



13. Kiiara - Gold

Gold. The color my participation medal better be once I cross the finish line.

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.

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.

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.
