Thrift Shop by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis

We will never be as broke as we are in college.

3. "Cheers to the freakin' weekend"

Cheers (I'd Drink to That) by Rhianna

4. "Maybe it's not my weekend, but it's gonna be my year."

Weightless by All Time Low

We tell ourselves practically every week.

5. "Don't stop believing"

Don't Stop Believing by Journey

Our anthem--even if you fail your first chem test or accidentally like a really old picture on your crush's instagram. It'll all work out in the end.

6. "If crazy equals genius...I'm a rocket scientist."

Crazy=Genius by Panic! at the Disco

Quite frankly, you can't get much crazier than a college student two days without sleep.

7. "Today I don't feel like doing anything. I just wanna lay in my bed."

Lazy Song by Bruno Mars

8. "Warning, live without warning."

Warning by Green Day

A part of the college life is experiencing things. We try to avoid stupid decisions, but we also try to avoid holding ourselves back.

9. "I've got headaches and bad luck."

Of All the Gin Joints In All the World by Fall Out Boy

I think we all sing this line after every exam we take.

Sometimes we just want to spend the night in, but our friends have a different idea.

11. "Tonight's the night we forget about deadlines; it's time."

22 by Taylor Swift

12. "We're happy, free, confused, and lonely at the same time."

Because 22 is actually a college student's theme song.

13. "It's time to see what I can do, to test the limits and break through."

Let It Go by Idina Menzel

We're trying to find ourselves, and part of that includes channeling a bit of our inner disney.

14. "Everybody makes mistakes. Everyone has those days."

Nobody's Perfect by Hannah Montana

Hannah Montana speaks the truth, especially for those of us that stay up a little too late for our early morning class.

15. "Is it fast food? I'll regret it after. And I needed money, but I'm too shy to ask her."

One Night by Ed Sheeran

We're talking to you, Mom.

16. "Underneath it all, we're just savages."

Savages by Marina and the Diamonds

This can be seen in the course evaluations at the end of each semester for the classes we hate.

17. "It's time to begin, isn't it?"

It's Time by Imagine Dragons

College is the beginning of the rest of our life. It's scary, but we'll find our way to where we need to be in the world one way or another.

18. "Do you have the time to listen to me whine about nothing and everything all at once?"

Basket Case by Green Day

Especially about our roommate woes and weather grievances.

19."All my favorite conversations always made in the A.M."

Sometime's we're stupid and go to Qdoba at 1:30 in the morning. Even when we're tired the next day, we'll cherish the silly things like that we did with our friends in the wee hours.

20. "Hey, we're taking on the world."

Unpredictable by 5 Seconds of Summer

College is the first step in figuring out what we're going to do with our lives. Bring it on.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
