The day has come! Ed Sheeran is finally back and as wonderful as ever. His third album, "Divide" debuted Friday, March 3rd. His disappearance from the music scene was worth the wait. This album is so beautifully created and wonderful. As a huge Ed fan, I wanted to review his new album and share my thoughts on each song.

1. Eraser

HE IS RAPPING. ED IS RAPPING THANK GOODNESS. I interpreted this song as Ed's way of telling his fans how he stays true to himself through the fame. My favorite line in this song says "I find comfort in my pain." reminding us fans that hey, he is a real person and feels what we feel. Props to him.

2. Castle on the Hill

I envision this song being used for a John Green film. Quick John Green get a new movie out there and feature this song.

3. Dive

The passion in his voice makes me swoon. Heart eyes all the way.

4. Shape of You

If you haven't heard this song by now, you probably live under a rock. How could you not love this song? PS check out the acoustic version of this.

5. Perfect

Dibs on using this song for my wedding someday. Literally it's perfect, hence the title.

6. Galway Girl

THERE IS A FIDDLE. Yes Ed yes. I love how he is incorporating different sounds into his music. Mix of folk, with hip hop beats and it blends so nicely.

7. Happier

When I listened to this song I interpreted it as trying to find happiness for an ex friend or partner. It can be hard to see an ex happy without you, but in the end seeing them happy is all that matters. And finding happiness without them too.

8. New Man

The lyrics in this song are so sneaky and just great. I love how Ed talks about a girl changing for a guy. We can all relate somehow.

9. Hearts Don't Break Around Here

Another yet sweet love song by Ed. Ed sets the bar high for all the other men out there. Step up your game.

10. What Do I Know?

Ed is smart. Ed is also not the type of person who will try to prove how smart and intelligent he is. Be like Ed.

11. How Would You Feel (Paean)

ISO of man to sing this song to me. Or Ed you can sing it to me in person. HMU.

12. Supermarket Flowers

The range in his voice. Oh my goodness. This song is beautiful. I cried. Listen to it.

13. Barcelona

This song made me want to pack my bags, hit the beach, and dance all night. I predict this will be a bit hit this summer.

14. Bibia Be Ye Ye

I also think this song will be a hit this summer. Great for road trips to the beach.

15. Nancy Mulligan

MORE FIDDLE. Seriously I love how Ed is incorporating folk styles into his own style.

16. Save Myself

I relate so much to this song. I do so much for other people but never get anything in return. That is why I need to start putting myself first to well save myself. This song is a great reality check.

Well Ed you did it again. Thank you.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
