10 Strong Powerful Soul-Punching Songs To Get You Through The Ever-So-Awful Week Of Finals

Sometimes you just need that one song, or many songs, to get you through tough times.

Here are those songs.

1. Shallows by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper

Ummm okay. A star is Born was legit a heart wrenching unbelievable amazing movie. A truly must watch and this song is no different. Wait also Lady Gaga is such girl goals. Like, teach me gal, please.

2. Pineapple Skies by Miguel

This song is unbelievable and will keep you on your toes to ensure you are moving right through your Quizlet's. You may just dance a little after you get one right. "Everythings WILL be alright babe."

3. Sure Don't Miss You by The Dip

This song will put you in the best mood ever. The soulful spin paired with the strong beets will put you in a field of strawberries while grinding through your final Calculus practice quiz.

4. Good Kisser by Lake Street Dive

The high pitches in her voice keep you from falling asleep when Netflix is legit calling you. You must decline the call and tell Netflix "I'm a good kisser", haha but really stay focused. Wait, what lol.

5. We're Going Home by Vance Joy

Haha. When you have one multiple choice question left and tears stream down your face. You legit hop out of your class like a creepy bunny rabbit as your mom has your favorite coffee waiting in the front street. You are going home and were all gong home.

6. Oh-No by Lawrence

Wait so I just finished my Stats final and I legit wrote Spanish as the fill in the blank space. I saw stars the second I started reading the problem and immediately knew this wasn't going to be good. I'm like so confused. What happened? I called my mom with tears streaming down my face and for the first time she did not reassure me that it would all be okay but rather said "Oh-No" and told me to listen to this song. So yes this is where I am at.

7. Going Gets Tough by The Growlers

Bruh. I have a test every day next week and all I can think about is who's getting eliminated on Love Island. Veronica get your act together. Well, okay in the end studying pretty much sucks, so listen to this song. Yes, "going gets tough", but hold it together and continue to strive for greatness. I believe in you and listen to this song when your triente from Starbs is no longer doing it.

8. Someone That Loves You by HONNE

Listen to this song after you have dropped your whole drink in front of your TA in the Cafe and then further embarrassed yourself by slipping and dropping everything. I am not speaking from personal experience so don't sweat it. ;) Remember someone does love and that the world will still spin around the sun and everything will be okay. Honestly, your mom loves you.

9. Blue Hundreds By Holy Mattress Money

Okay. You've done it! You have made it through the week and are feeling flames. Jam to this song with your besties from home and recollect on all of the good times. You can go down to the grande size and prob have some free rewards so go get them. Caio until next year!!

10. Listen To The Music By The Doobie Brothers

And one more song just for the kicks and giggles. The ultimate feel-good song after you have demolished your finals or they demolished you buy honestly at this point that is irrelevant. You did it. Dance around the Christmas tree and drink some damn eggnog. Cheers.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
