22 Songs To Get You Through Finals Week

Finals week is right around the corner and college students are lining up at their favorite coffee shop to power through their intense week of studying and writing pages and pages of their final papers. Here's a list of 22 songs that you might want to add to your playlist while you're studying for finals and getting through the one of the most stressful weeks of the year.

1. Eye Of The Tiger - Survivor -- We all know this is one of the most motivational kick-ass songs out there. It makes you want to get out of your seat and have a little mini dance party--don't fight it. Give yourself a break and jam out.

2. Girls Run The World - Beyonce -- For all you female business majors (and all you to-be female graduates out there) who have plans of well, running the world, show finals week what you're made of. After you're done, you're one step closer on being the next CEO.

3. Confident - Demi Lovato

4. Life Is Worth Living - Justin Bieber

5. Shake It Off - Taylor Swift -- There's so much stress to shake off at this time of the year -- this song might help out a little.

6. Learn To Fly - Foo Fighters

7. Pressure - The 1975

8. Move Along - All American Rejects

9. It's Not Over - Daughtry

10. Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2) - Pink Floyd

11. Sweater Weather - The Neighbourhood -- Winter time is probably one of the comfiest times of the year because of all that hot chocolate and snuggling by the fireplace with your favorite sweater. Too bad you're going to have to snuggle by a bunch of study guides and research papers. But after this week, you'll be stress free and get to enjoy winter at your home sweet home.

12. Big Girls Don't Cry - Fergie -- I know studying is enough to make you shed some tears -- maybe even grab that Ben & Jerry's and eat away your responsibilities but keep up the good work and you can do anything!

13. Worth It - Fifth Harmony

14. How Far We've Come - Matchbox 20

15. Dog Days Are Over - Florence And The Machine

16. Better Days - Goo Goo Dolls

6. Girl On Fire - Alicia Keys -- You may not be Katniss Everdeen but this song will make you feel like you can get through anything. You got your head in the clouds and you're not backing down.

18. The Distance - Cake

19. Float On - Modest Mouse

20. I Lived - One Republic

21. Lose Yourself - Eminem

22. Fight Song - Rachel Platten -- We've all heard this song on our radios before. Keep fighting for that GPA you're aiming for.

Christmas is almost here, so it's true when they say that there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Who's ready to finish off this semester with a positive attitude?

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
