15 Throwback Songs Perfect For Driving

For many college students, traveling home on the weekends means multiple hours in the car. Something I love to do whenever I'm driving home on the weekends is to listen to good music I haven't heard in awhile. So, I present to you 15 songs perfect for a throwback playlist.

1. Destiny's Child — "Say My Name"

Seriously, no throwback playlist is complete without Destiny's Child.

2. 50 Cent — "Disco Inferno"

I'm pretty sure this song is just on every single one of my playlists.

3. No Doubt — "Just a Girl"

Okay, this song rocks my world. It was featured in the 90's film Clueless, which starred Alicia Silverstone as prep princess, Cher. What? Leave this song off the playlist? UGH, as if!

4. Ace of Base — "All That She Wants"

"Oh, what a morning... It's not a day for work. It's a day for catching sun!"


5. Spice Girls — "Wannabe"

I'll tell you what I really want- this song. On every playlist. Ever.


6. TLC — "No Scrubs"

This song debuted in 1999, when I was just two months shy of my first birthday. If I wasn't crooning this legendary pop song as my first words, my mother should be disappointed. Cause I ain't no scrub.

7. Tal Bachman — "She's So High"

For some reason, I didn't discover this song until I was 16 years old, even though it debuted the month AFTER my first birthday, and was #1 on Billboard's "Heatseekers" Chart.


8. The Cure- — "Friday I'm in Love"

Thursday, I don't care about you- it's Friday, I'm in love... WITH THIS SONG. Am I right?


9. Shakira — "Hips Don't Lie"

Ever since I discovered this song as a young child, I've wanted nothing more than to be just like Shakira. IS that feasible? Can I do that? My hips don't lie.... do they?


10. Justin Timberlake — "Rock Your Body"

Okay, I have to thank my mother for this song. And "Now That's What I Call Music! 13." RIP to that CD. This song ALSO graces almost every playlist I've ever made. Thank you, Justin Timberlake, for this fantastic bop.


11. Gwen Stefani ft. Akon — "The Sweet Escape"

When this song hit the charts in 2006, it quickly became the favorite of my younger sister. Who blared it allllll the time. Oh, if we could only go back to those days... That'd be one sweet escape.

12. Britney Spears — "Oops!... I Did it Again"

Oops!... I added this song to another playlist. Sorry about it.

13. Mariah Carey — "We Belong Together"

This was my favorite song when I was seven years old. Thank you, mom, for loving Mariah Carey, and introducing me to this track. It has always been one of my favorites.

14. Jason Mraz — "The Remedy (I Won't Worry)"

This song was the remedy for 2003. Problems: begone! You don't have to worry your life away- Jason Mraz said so.


15. Nelly — "Hot 'n Herre"

When this song comes on, you dance. "With a little bit of uh, uh, and a little bit of uh, uh." It's the rules.


Here's a link to my Spotify where you can find this playlist, and others! Happy listening :)

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.
