For the times you never wanted to end

A playlist to remind you of the best and the worst, the highs and the lows

For the times you never wanted to end
Angela Gorski

Some songs evoke those feelings that you never wanted to end; here are a few favorites that will remind you of the good and the bad, the highs and the lows.

400 Lux by Lorde

"I love these roads where the houses don't change..."

Lorde coos over calming beats as she sings about killing time with someone, be it a friend or a lover. She tells the story of being picked up and taken home again as if it were an interminable cycle.. that she was in love with. It will bring back careless summer nights of driving down those all too familiar roads.

Forrest Gump by Frank Ocean

"If this is love, I know it's true.. I won't forget you"

Frank Ocean drew inspiration from the iconic film, not only in the title, but in the details woven into the lyrics. You hear the witty reference of "run 44", but the hidden meaning is laced with nostalgia and the sinking feeling of desperately missing someone and the memories attached to them.

Video Games by Lana Del Rey

"It's better than I ever even knew, they say that the world was built for two..."

An ode to a past lover, Lana recounts the wild summers shared with the one she loved the most.

December by Neck Deep

"I miss your face, you're in my head, there's so many things that I should've said"

An angry letter to a past flame, December recounts lessons learned along with the yearning for old times back.



Anna Sun by Walk The Moon

"Fumbling around the back, not one seatbelt on... wait for summertime"

Anna Sun is upbeat and idyllic, but it evokes so many memories of night after night flying by with not a care in the world.

Ribs by Lorde

"I want 'em back (the minds we had)"

Ribs recounts the chilling reality of growing old. The painfully nostalgic lyrics tell the story of best friends, and how your world changes as each birthday passes.

Sex by The 1975

"And this it how it starts..."

This song speaks of happiness, then pain, then loneliness; emotions that many relate to all too well. The crashing lyrics will creep into your mind and soul.

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.
