I absolutely love music. I love finding new music and artists that I can basically claim that I knew who they were before the rest of the world. New Music Friday on Spotify is my best friend, the podcast app has become my newest obsession, and driving around town has been changed for the better. I like mixing it up, between podcasts and my latest and greatest playlist, but I definitely feel you should add at least one or two of these 'tracks' to your summer jam sessions. Here are some of my favorite songs (and my top 2 podcasts that stream every single day) that you should definitely give a try.

**DISCLAIMER**: Each podcast has a little description, but each song speaks for itself because I wouldn't put a song on here if it wasn't AMAZING.

1. The Morning Toast- Podcast

If you are my friend, I know I'm about to get TONS of crap for talking about the Morning Toast again, but hear me out. This podcast is not only a podcast. It is also a web morning show that is directed towards millennials. It streams on Facebook and Youtube every weekday morning at 10:30 am, and later in the Podcast app. They talk all about the 'fast 5 stories you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast'. It's basically a recap of all things pop culture, music, tv, you name it. Run by sisters Claudia and Jackie Oshry, who run super popular instagrams, @girlwithnojob and @jackieoproblems, they make my morning each morning. Trust me, you won't regret becoming a toaster and keeping up with all things pop culture.

2. Better Not- Louis and the Child

3. Guatemala- Rae Sremmurd

4. Youth (feat. Khalid)- Shawn Mendes

5. Balenciaga- Cheat Codes

6. The Reason- Chelsea Cutler

7. Anywhere- Mustard & Nick Jonas

8. Would You Mind- PRETTYMUCH

9. I Love It- Cheat Codes

10. I Did Something Bad- Taylor Swift

11. Longer Than I Thought- Loote & Joe Jonas

12. Particular Taste- Shawn Mendes

13. All Mine- Kanye West

14. 5 In The Morning- Charli XCX

15. Lonely Alone- Jeremy Zucker

16. This Way - Khalid & H.E.R.

17. Bed (feat. Ariana Grande)- Nicki Minaj

18. Out Of My Head- Loote

19. Magic in the Hamptons (feat. Lil Yachty)- Social House

20. IDWK- DVBBS & Blackbear

21. Life Changes- Thomas Rhett

22. Getting Curious with Jonathan Van Ness - Podcast

Hosted by Jonathan Van Ness from another obsession of mine, the Netflix show Queer Eye, this podcast is all about answering questions that JVN has. For example, the episode currently streaming on my phone is a conversation with fellow Queer Eye fashion expert, Tan France, and basically JVN asks Tan all the questions he wants to know about what makes Tan himself. He is HILARIOUS and probably top 10 favorite people of 2018. You should give him a listen, as well as obviously watch the first two seasons of Queer Eye.

Give them all a listen! If you want to check out what will be added to my Spotify each week, give me a follow!

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.

The people that spend their summers at the lake are a unique group of people.

Whether you grew up going to the lake, have only recently started going, or have only been once or twice, you know it takes a certain kind of person to be a lake person. To the long-time lake people, the lake holds a special place in your heart, no matter how dirty the water may look.

There's no other place you'd rather be in the summer.

A bad day at the lake is still better than a good day not at the lake.

You know the best beaches and coves to go to.

You have no patience for the guy who can't back his trailer into the water right.

Doing the friendly wave to every boat you pass.

The cooler is always packed, mostly with beer.

Giving the idiot who goes 30 in a "No Wake Zone" a piece of your mind.

You have no problem with peeing in the water.

You know the frustration of getting your anchor stuck.

Watching in awe at the bigger, better boats that pass by.

Knowing any swimsuit that you own with white in it is best left for the pool or the ocean.

The momentary fear for your life as you get launched from the tube.

You're able to go to the restaurants by the water wearing minimal clothing.

Having unexpected problems with your boat.

Having a name for your boat unique to you and your life.

There's no better place you'd rather be in the summer.
