Now that summer is over, another semester begins...which means, exams, papers, group projects and presentations galore. Of course, not every teacher understands that you're taking 15 credits, your boss doesn't get that working until close does not go well with an 8 am class and you're forever jealous of your friends that have already graduated. While having a million thoughts float around in your head is super fun to deal with, nothing really beats finding that one thing that clears all that stress right out of your head.
That thing for me has always been music. Driving around at night with the windows down and the right song playing can really do wonders for your head when all you can really think about is how to properly balance your social life with work and your classes. Here's 20 song ideas for any of you who need your own Stress Reliever Playlist for your toughest days.
1. Always by Switchfoot
2. Brother by NEEDTOBREATHE feat. Gavin DeGraw
3. Colder Weather by Zac Brown Band
4. Confession by Florida Georgia Line
5. 5. Crystals by Of Monsters and Men
6. Drift Away by Uncle Kracker

In my opinion, a good Stress Reliever playlist has got a good balance of feel good songs, songs that make you think and songs that you can belt out and scream along every word. Now, next time you start to have a meltdown about how to handle everything going on in your life.
