Have you ever sat down to study and realized that you need the perfect acoustic mix to focus? Or you're having a big party when you that realize your friend's DJ skills are not up to snuff? Fear not, because Spotify exists. Their (basically) unlimited catalog of every song you've ever loved can help you. Not only does Spotify have countless albums spanning countless genres, they also have tons of playlists for every possible mood. So whatever the day may bring, or whatever mood you may be in, know that Spotify has you covered.

1. Piano Ballads


Spotify has a few good options for a rainy day. But whether it's pouring rain outside or maybe you're just feeling a little foggy yourself, this playlist spans genres with a great mix of slow, lulling songs. Some songs are original, and some are piano covers of popular tunes. This playlist can calm you down or add a nice backing soundtrack to your thunderstorm watching.

2. Beach Vibes


This is the perfect playlist for a day at the beach.The songs are a mix of reggae and fun acoustic songs that basically smell of salt water and sand. The chill atmosphere this playlist creates puts you in the summer mood. It has a variety of familiar songs and new danceable tracks to sway to, making this a great soundtrack for a beach volleyball tournament or a drive up the coast.

3. The Most Beautiful Songs in the World


The title speaks for itself. This playlist is just right for an evening of homework or to just listen to while cooking. The variety of instrumental and creative songs weave a magical journey through sound and production. Each song is a masterpiece in itself, some through lyrics, some through the instruments, and some through the song as a whole. This playlist may not have a bunch of songs you are familiar with, but it will definitely expose you to some great new ones.

4. Ultimate Covers


Everyone loves a classic. What's better than your favorite song? Rediscovering it. Whether it's a pop song reimagined as an acoustic ballad or a slow piano song with a backbeat and rap lyrics, covers are the best way to add some spice to your favorite old songs. This playlist spans genres and combines well-known covers of popular artists by popular artists, to unknown artists performing pop classics in ways you had never imagined them.

5. Breakup Songs


Sometimes the best way to get over a bad breakup is to sing your heart out. This playlist has songs to scream at the top of your lungs, and songs with lyrics that are all too relatable. This playlist has throwbacks like Kelly Clarkson and new songs by Adele and Sam Smith. The variety of music fits any kind of breakup and provides comfort or reassurance or whatever you may be needing in your time post-breakup.

6. Late Night Reading


This playlist is ideal for studying. The instrumental songs create an easy environment to focus in and the calm beats provide a calm and lulling atmosphere. In addition to it being the right music to study to, it has no lyrics to distract you from what you may be studying and no loud noises to startle you or disrupt your learning.

7. Fun Workout


Finding the right work out playlist can be tough, especially when no one wants to work out in the first place. However, this mix combines popular songs and fun beats to make a great soundtrack to your workout. Part of what makes this playlist so great is the countless number of pump-up songs to keep you enjoying your run instead of stressing about how sweaty or tired you are.

8. Epic Throwback Dance Party


Arguably the greatest playlist on Spotify, this list has everything. Nearly 5 hours of throwbacks and nostalgia to boot, this mix will keep the party going all night. Not only that, but the songs will remind you of the first time you heard it, or the good ol' days. Nothing against modern music, but throwbacks are where it's at (especially the kind you can dance to).

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.
