Calling all runners

30 Songs To Get You Through A Long Run

For most people, when they hear the word "run", it makes them want to throw up. Running is not an appealing hobby for some. Believe me, I used to be the same way. I used to not be able to run one mile without crying. Now, I have completed two marathons. One thing that helps me tremendously while running a long run is a good music playlist. One thing I make sure I do before completely any race is put my playlist together of the songs I want to listen to. Nothing makes a run worse than a bad playlist, in my opinion. The songs I listen to are a great mixture, ranging from rap to Disney songs to today's hits to all the oldies we used to listen to. My playlists are somewhat a weird combination, but I can always depend on them to make my runs go by a little faster. I know it can be hard to figure out what you want to listen to and what you will be in the mood for. Here are some of my ideas for any runners who need a little help putting together a good playlist:

1. Titanium - David Guetta

2. Medicine - Kelly Clarkson 

3. Don't Stop Believin' - Journey 

4. Only Girl In The World - Rihanna

8. Here I Go Again - Whitesnake

12. Anyway You Want It - Journey 

13. Bulletproof - La Roux

14. Rolling In The Deep - Adele 

15. Man! I Feel Like A Woman! - Shaina Twain

16. September - Earth, Wind & Fire

17. Go Your Own Way - Fleetwood Mac

18. Don't Stop Me Know - Queen 

19. The Chain - Fleetwood Mac

20. Under Pressure - Queen 

21. Dancing Queen - ABBA

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.
