A survey taken at midnight on a Saturday.

2016's Pregame Playlist
The Perfect Playlist

Summary: The other night, I drove around my campus for five hours, picking up students and driving them to and from their various pregames and parties with a program run through our school. As riveting as this usually is, I decided to add a twist to the fun and make a sort of study.

Sample Kind: Simple Random. (a.k.a. whoever we picked up).

Question: What is your go-to pregame/frat song?

Here are my results:

My House – Flo Rida (II)

The 90’s – Charlie Puth

Don’t Let Me Down – The Chainsmokers

Shots – LMFAO (II)

All Night Longer – Sammy Adams

Hands To Myself – Selena Gomez (II)

Middle – DJ Snake

Jordan Belfort – Wes Walker

Caribou Lou – Techn9ne

Get Buck In Here – Dj Felly Fel

Lose Control – Missy Elliot

Five More Hours – Chris Brown

Gold Digger – Kanye West

Never Forget You (Oun Jweinat Remix) – Zara Larsson + MNEK

Me, Myself & I – G-Eazy

Snap Yo Fingers – Lil Jon

Cold Like Minnesota – Lil Yachty

Chain Hang Low – Jibbs

Closer – Nick Jonas

Bye, Bye, Bye – N*Sync

Check Yes Juliet – We The Kings

Doses & Mimosas – Cherub

Buy U A Drank – T-Pain

Backseat x E3 – Austin James

Come Get Her – Rae Srremurd

She Juicy – Lil Dicky

Paradise – Benny Benassi

Blasé – Ty Dolla $ign

Analysis: Truly a spectacular turn out from the student body of Elon University. We got a pretty mixed bag of people in regards to race, age, gender and general demographic-things. The majority of the songs were in the more predictable realm (*see Nick Jonas) but we also got some outliers in the mix.

As you can see, according to my calculations, artists like DJ Felly Fel were found a few standard deviations from the mean.

Conclusion: First and foremost, the Disney Channel artists are still stirring up the waters across college campuses nationally. From Wizards of Waverly Place to Elon University- Selena is still turning heads. The majority of the songs that were mentioned were no surprise. Drunk college students love to yell Jordan Belfort out car windows. Southern guys like to say “buck.” Not much new to report here.

Big thanks to all that participated in this study and stay tuned for the next installment.

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

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

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. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

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.
