5 Songs To Listen To During Finals Season

Kayla Koch

Being the end of November, college students are preparing for the dreaded amount of finals which will conclude many stressful semesters for students everywhere. One coping mechanism students use to survive the remaining time left in the semester. With that being said, here are five songs worth giving a listen as finals season commences.

1. "1998" by Chet FakerKnown for it's interesting beat and pace, "1998" is a combination of various sounds and rhythms that are sure to get your feet tapping under that coffee shop table that you have been stuck under for the last hour or two. It's a happy song and happiness is often a relief in times of stress.

2. "Happy Accidents" by Saint Motel

For the more sentimental, this song is a calm one by the up and coming group Saint Motel. (Sidenote: this group will probably take over the world.) Their #1 song "My Type" was made famous within the last year and they keep pushing the bar. "Happy Accidents" is a delightful little song about the possibilities of life and how small events can impact your life in the most monumental ways. Definitely a good song to listen to when stressed to the max. This song melts away stress.

3. "Déjà Vu" by Runaway Weekend

For When you need to power through a lecture from six weeks ago that you are so sure you slept through and you need motivation, listen to this song. It builds up and up and up and drops all at once. The sound is incredible and somehow empowers you. Although way too short, the song is worth a listen especially when in need of a calmer song that will keep you moving forward while studying.

4. "Afterhours" by Troyboi feat. Diplo & Nina SkyThis song should be known as the study break song. Although it won't get you head banging in a coffee shop, it might get your body rocking and stretching out from a long study session. The repetitive lyrics make it easy to learn and the drops and sounds make it a fun little song to dance to after hours of studying.

5. "Sedona" by Houndmouth

If you have yet to see an Arizona sunset, I recommend you listen to this song and if you enjoy the words, buy a ticket and come on out to experience one. That being said, this song is a relaxing one. After a long day of studying, burn a candle, draw a bath, make your favorite snack, and turn this song on. Instant relaxation.

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.

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.
