A new year means new trends, viral videos, dances, events and many more made up crazes. 2016 was quite the memorable year for that, and here's a round up of everything people went crazy for this year:

1) Juju on that beat and the Running Man challenge

These became very popular dances that trended everywhere!

2) Stranger Things

The world went crazy over this new, science-fiction TV show. Go watch it on Netflix!

3) Damn Daniel!

Just a high school kid, walking around in his white vans, and everyone went crazy over him and the kid behind the camera, saying the infamous line, "Damn Daniel!"

4) Pokemon Go

How many times did you walk outside and see people staring at their phones trying to find Pokemon?

5) Clown invasion

Terrifying clowns started to terrorize towns and cities in September. Was it an early Halloween prank? We never found out.

6) Finding Dory

The little kid in all of us was so excited when we heard this movie was being released.

7) Leonardo DiCaprio FINALLY won an Oscar

We have been waiting for this moment forever!

8) The Chicago Cubs won the World Series

The Cubs finally got the World Series title after 108 years!

9) Beloved celebrities passing away

Prince, Alan Rickman, Florence Henderson, and David Bowie are a few of the tragic passings.

10) The Mannequin Challenge

This viral video trend became popular among the world where people take videos as if they were frozen in time. These groups include the BYU gymnastics team as well as the Cleveland Cavaliers at the White House!

11) "Squad"

If you have a group of friends, you call them your "squad."

12) America Horror Story: My Roanoke Nightmare

The anticipation and excitement is always great leading up to the release of a new season of American Horror Story. And they did not disappoint!

13) Donald Trump wins presidency

This was a shock to many people, and was definitely the biggest news story of 2016.

14) "It's lit"

Yes, this became an actual phrase, meaning something exciting/fun was about to happen and you're "turnt."

15) Rio Olympics

2016 was another year of the Olympic games held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

16) Sad papaw

The internet went insane over this sad grandpa after his granddaughter posted a picture of him after grilling burgers for all of his grandkids, and only one out of his six grandchildren showed up to eat with him.

And with that, 2016 was quite the year, but most are happy it's coming to an end. So cheers to saying goodbye to 2016 and hello to another crazy year!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
