3 Songs To Scream Along To On Your Next Car Ride

Admit it. We all need to go for a drive at night and sing along as loudly as we can to a song that perfectly describes how we feel. It's healing, in its own way. It's like a private therapy session. Listening to music helps us express ourselves, and singing along lets us vent our feelings in a powerful way. Long drives are the perfect time to let it all out and feel our feelings as loudly as we want without hurting anyone's ears. Here are a few of my tried-and-true picks for when I need to sing my heart out.

1. "Exless" by Kate Stephenson

So many songs out there are about breakups, but this one is for anyone who has never been in a formal relationship but has still had their heart broken. It's common and it's real. It hurts like crazy. It's the perfect storm of feelings to cry to in the privacy of your car.

2. "Nobody" by Mitski

Honestly, just listen to any Mitski song and you'll have your key in the ignition in seconds to hit the road and jam. This song perfectly encapsulates loneliness and wanting to be wanted. There's no feeling quite like it, and the catchy chorus is easy enough to learn so that you'll be shouting along in no time.

3. "good 4 u" by Olivia Rodrigo

We have a song about never being in a relationship and a song about being lonely. Here's a good ol' fashioned love song to round out the list. I know "drivers license" seems like the obvious choice, but this one is ADDICTING. Olivia Rodrigo's own anger emanating from the song is palpable and makes you feel the same hurt she does. Plus, the chorus is amazing. It's impossible not to sing along!

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
