We all connect songs to our experiences whether or not we realize it. In musical theater there is always one character that we can relate to. Whether it's an obstacle to overcome or they just have a similar personality we all can relate to theater . There are also songs that contain lyrics that are extremely relative to college students.

1. When you ace a test in your hardest class

I thank you one and all, the ones who thought I'd fall, taught me how to fail, who helped me to prevail

Find My Way- Legally Blonde


2. Student loans... enough said

Money, money, money must be funny, in a rich man's world

Money, Money- Mamma Mia




3. When you do something completely out of your comfort zone

Heaven helps the man who fights his fears

I'm Free- Footloose


4. When you try to explain your feelings about your crush to your friends

I can't really explain it, I haven't got the words, it's a feeling that you can't control

Electricity- Billy Elliot


5. How you feel in a 50+ person lecture

Call me a fool and it's true I am, no one knows who I am!

No one Knows Who I Am- Jekyll and Hyde


6.When you are just having a bad day

When you walk through a storm, hold your head up high

You'll Never Walk Alone- Carousel



7.That moment you realize you have to do something without your parents

I feel a kind of fear, when I don't have you near

Lay All Your Love On Me- Mamma Mia!




8. When you are so furious at a professor but you don't know why

I said nothing, I'm feeling nothing!

Nothing- A Chorus Line


9. When a friend finally opens up to you

And suddenly I'm beautiful all because of you

Is it Really Me?- 110 in the Shade


10. When you are getting ready for move in day

Have I done the right thing, picking up my life, packing up the past, that's always frightening

On Any Sunday- Footloose


11. When you start eating healthy and feel amazing

Gotta pay for what you get, cause size 2 clothes don't come to those too lazy to sweat!

Whipped Into Shape- Legally Blonde



12. When the whole class is just confused

You are not alone, no one is alone!

No One Is Alone- Into the Woods



13. When you have two midterms on the same day!

Agony, far more painful than yours!

Agony- Into the Woods



14. The thought you have when you fail a test

What's the use of trying, all you get is pain

I'm A Believer- Shrek the Musical




15. At the end of every year

It was a blast, it's a shame it couldn't last but every chapter has to end you must agree.

Dirty Rotten Number- Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
