I LIVE for pump-up songs. While music on the radio is all well and good, digging through Spotify to find adrenaline-pumping songs makes this list all the more fun. Here are a few to add to your designated kick-ass playlist.

1. Dangerous by Royal Deluxe

This is a very low-key kick-ass song. The driving bass in the chorus really hammers home the 'take on the world' objective.

Get it on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/4MYl2TdloNHxQUkdQSg...

2. Walk On Water by Thirty Seconds to Mars

Having Jared Leto ask you if you're gonna win this fight tonight is so empowering for some reason. And yes, the actor Jared Leto is the lead singer of this band. Worth a listen!

Get it on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/5UMD1Iz7yyVK8Q5FLsV...

3. Blood // Water by grandson

Despite this song being in Riverdale, it's a really good mysterious hype song. The chord progression in it makes you feel like you're in an action movie.

Get it on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/0AUyNF6iFxMNQsNx2nh...

4. LEAN BACK by SUR

The first time I heard this song, it was stuck in my head for WEEKS. You'll be humming it to yourself as you take down your worst enemies.

Get it on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/36pQTerIenQrynQfKt4...

5. Legend by The Score

My school plays this song with a dramatic montage of the players training before every basketball game, but I knew this song before the season began. When I heard it playing, I became even more excited for the game!

Anything by The Score, especially off the ATLAS album, is 100% guaranteed to hype you up. Check out Higher, Miracle, and Unstoppable while you're scrolling through!

Get it on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/3SWqGa1J0M7hSBUDM0K...

6. Cool Me Down by Margaret

Out of all of the songs on this list so far, this song is very pop-sounding. If the artist became more mainstream, I can see this song being blasted from every car.

Get it on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/track/0oDpBQNBCa3VCR3bmn7...

7. Light That Fire by Oh The Larceny

From start to finish, this song makes you want to conquer every obstacle that stands in your way.

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.

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
