The Perfect Playlist For Your Drive To Syracuse

I'm from Philadelphia. My drive to Syracuse is about four hours of straight highway, cutting vertical through Pennsylvania into New York. If you're also driving to the University, from whichever direction, you're likely to pass the same sights: green-covered mountains, rustic little upstate towns, miles, and miles of farmland. Such a scenic drive calls for a playlist soothing enough to match the tranquility but upbeat as the excitement of heading back to school. However long your commute, here are the best traveling songs for your drive to Syracuse University!

2. Maps by The Front Bottoms

There is a map in my room, on the wall in my room, and I got big, big plans

3. Somewhere in the Mountains, Somewhere in New York by The Tallest Man on Earth

4. Another Travelin' Song by Bright Eyes

5. Roadhouse Blues by The Doors

6. Sleep on the Floor by The Lumineers

'Cause if we don't leave this town, we might never make it out

To the Ends of the Earth would you follow me

Nothing is broken, nothing is lost

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
