It's the time of year we have all been waiting for, summertime! Personally, I am always ecstatic when break finally arrives. I spend my semesters in constant overdrive, running on little to no sleep and too much caffeine. Gone are the paper deadlines and stressful tests for now. The break won't last forever, though. Time to make the best of our summer while we have it.

Whether you are bored at your apartment or traveling or drinking a beer on the beach, these are some of the best tunes to add to your slammin' summer playlist. It's time to sit back, relax and enjoy some rock 'n roll, pop or country.

For those who enjoy the latest hits...

1. The Chainsmokers "Don't Let Me Down ft. Days"

I have always loved this group, and I particularly like this feature.

2. Fifth Harmony "Work from Home ft. Ty Dolla $ign"

What is working? (Actually, you should probably not take this song's advice.)

3. Mike Posner "I Took a Pill in Ibiza (Seeb Remix)"

I don't recommend taking a pill in Ibiza, or you'll end up wearing a weird mask.

4. Nick Jonas "Close ft. Tove Lo"

I never got into the Jonas Brothers, but, wow, how things have changed!

And for those who prefer country music...

5. Dierks Bentley "Somewhere on a Beach"

I wish I could be somewhere on a beach too, Dierks.

6. Dustin Lynch "Mind Reader"

I got to see him perform live about three years ago. He was super sweet!

7. Tim McGraw "Humble and Kind"

An old favorite of mine. The message in this song is so sweet.

8. Luke Bryan "Huntin', Fishin', and Lovin' Every Day"

Sounds like a pretty great life if you ask me!

Or for those who dig rock music...

9. Disturbed "The Sound of Silence"

I have to admit I was blown away. I thought only Simon & Garfunkel could ever do this song right.

10. blink-182 "Bored to Death"

Yes. So much yes. That is all.

11. Radiohead "Burn the Witch"

This song is a little strange (the video, too), but it is Radiohead. What else did you expect?

12. Foals "Mountain at My Gates"

This song has been a favorite of mine for a while. We will be playing it when we spot our first mountain on our road trip this summer.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

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.

Student Life

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.
