Most people say they hate country music. But the real truth is that country music is not pure country anymore, it is mainly country-pop, with more pop. These are a few singers who have a little more pop in them than most country singers.

1. Carrie Underwood

Although Carrie Underwood is country, she has one of the best and most real voices in the music industry. She started off on American Idol and became one of the top female artists' of all time.

2. Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift is not very country anymore, but the old Taylor was pure country. In my opinion, I prefer her original music instead of her new music because it does not seem like the real her anymore. I believe she needs to learn the real her again, and not try to become someone she isn't.

3. Kelly Clarkson

After winning one of the first seasons of American Idol, was how Kelly Clarkson managed to get her debut. She had started off as a country singer but went more into pop a little later on. Now she had combined her country side with her pop side, that is a great combination for her.

4. Sam Hunt

I do know that Sam Hunt is basically pure country, but he has some amazing songs that anyone should enjoy. "Body Like A Back Road" is his top song and my all time favorite. If that comes on in the car, I would sing along with it with my friends.

5. Florida Georgia Line

This band is my favorite band in country music. I saw Florida Georgia Line in concert and it was the best experience of my life. I had only been to one concert before so I do not have much to compare it to, but it was still amazing.

6. Cassadee Pope

Cassadee Pope has managed to top the charts a few times ever since she won The Voice with Blake Shelton helping her out. She has had the best start for her career when she won, and tings have never gone down.

7. Miley Cyrus

I know that Miley Cyrus is not country anymore, but I preferred her original songs in the beginning of her career. Once she changed the way she had, I was not a big fan anymore. Once she started to die down from her faze, she got a little better, but her original songs are still a lot better.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
