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

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
