6 Songs To Listen To When You're Down.

I don't know about you, but whenever stuff goes wrong in my life, my first outlet is music. Lately I've been finding a lot of solace in music, so here are 5 songs to listen to when you're feeling down and, for some reason, want to make it worse, and one to make things a little better.

1. Rivers and Roads -- The Head and the Heart

This song is sure to make you miss anyone who's left your life. With nothing but a few simple chords to back the vocals it will put you in the mood to call up that friend you've really been missing.

2. The Freshmen -- The Verve Pipe

In the mood to think about your past? Maybe even realize that life sucks and the world is an awful place? This song will help with that. It sets a very somber tone of reflection while still providing a nice soft rock vibe with some distorted guitar and raspy vocals.

3. Vor i Vaglaskogi -- Kaleo

This song definitely isn't for everyone because it's not english, but the emotion in his voice really sells it. It's not very often I come across a song I will never understand the lyrics to that still manages to pull pain up from the parts of my soul I'd rather keep in the dark, so if you're just looking to be sad and feel like someone out there relates; this is your song.

4. I Should've Known -- Foo Fighters

Did you convince yourself your relationship wasn't doomed just long enough for your partner to end it? Don't worry, Dave Grohl knows your pain. With a chorus that repeats "No, I cannot forgive you yet. You leave my heart in debt. One thing is for certain, as I'm standing here, I should've known." This song is not only bound to drudge up all the lovely feelings of a break up, but it's harder style will let you scream it at your steering wheel or your pillow instead of letting it stew in your brain.

5. Where The Skies Are Blue -- The Lumineers

This song tells the classic tale of the love struck fool and the one who got away or, from the sounds of it, keeps getting away. If you're missing someone and you really wish they'd come back to you then this song should express how you feel pretty well.

6. Automobile -- Kaleo

I wanted to try to avoid repeating artists but since his last one was in a different language I'll make an exception. This song isn't actually a sad song either; it's simply a man dreaming about leaving his troubles behind him and falling in love with a car. It makes the list because I think a lot of people would like to indulge that dream.(Maybe just for a few days, but still.)

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
