Your Finals Week Theme Songs

Pexel.com

1. The Eye of the Tiger - Survivor

This is basically the go to song for anyone trying to get through anything ever. Rocky used it to train so that he could beat the shit out of superhuman-like boxers in the ring, so we can use it to literally beat the shit out of finals week.

2. Survivor - Destiny's Child

I know this isn't even on the same level as Eye of the Tiger, but it's Beyoncé and those other women. We'll be survivors, too. Plus it's like the pumping up song of our generation.

3. Don't Stop Believing - Journey

This might as well be America's national anthem, but since it's not it can be our finals week national anthem. Even when you think you can't make it through finals, DON'T STOP BELIEVING.

4. The Final Countdown - Europe

This song is for that two hour cram before your actual exam, when you're trying to take in all the information you can before it's finally time. In other words, it's for the final countdown!

5. Stayin' Alive - Bee Gee's

Because we're literally doing our best to stay alive. With the sleep deprivation, unhealthy amounts of red bull and enormous amount of stress, it's surprising half of us haven't dropped dead due to a heart attack anyway. So celebrate stayin' alive.

6. Livin' on a Prayer - Bon Jovi

I'm pretty sure a prayer is the only thing getting us through, anyway. So it's fitting.

7. Carry on Wayward Son - Kansas

This song actually reminds me of the exact phone call I got from my mom before finals week started, only way more poetic and lyrical. It kind of gives you that last little motivational kick in the ass that you need.

8. I Can Go the Distance - Hercules

I bet you thought this would be an article that wouldn't reference Disney. You're wrong. I know this one is a totally different vibe, but seriously it's great. I promise. Hercules was so down for all the challenges, and we should be, too.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

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.
