25 Tunes For Your November Playlist To Help Us Make It To Winter Break

Let's all turn to music in our times of stress.

As the seasons change, so do a lot of people's taste in music. Below is a list of both older and newer songs that I've carefully compiled to create a laid-back playlist, perfect for this time of the school year. This compilation is for any of those music-junkies, like myself, who are constantly walking around campus with earbuds in. It's a cool, calm, and collective collection just in time for that late-semester stress everyone's feeling as we near towards finals.

I fully believe music can have a major impact on our feelings, stress levels, and just our day to day lives overall. It's a healthy coping mechanism to resort to and a way to make yourself connect to artists going through the same things as you. Hopefully, these tracks will be able to calm any nerves anyone has and will allow you to treat yourself to a "you day." These may be some of my personal fall favorites, but I hope that everyone can find at least one song on this list that truly resonates with them.

1. "We're Going to Be Friends" — The White Stripes

If this song doesn't bring you back to your carefree elementary school days, I don't know what will.

2. "Better Together" — Jack Johnson

Jack Johnson's "Banana Pancakes" is also an adorable tune to listen to while making breakfast on a fall morning.

3. "Sweater Weather" — The Neighbourhood

"Sweater Weather" is absolutely, without a doubt, the epitome of an autumn track.

4. "Another One" — Mac Demarco

5. "The Gambler" — fun.

6. "Sex in the City" — Hobo Johnson

This is the song that made me such a fan of Hobo Johnson... what a character that dude is.

7. "The Moon Song" — Karen O

Although Karen O's "The Moon Song" is absolutely stellar, the film version of this track, from the movie "Her," is even more so. I'd recommend checking out both the original version and the one sung by Scarlett Johansson and Joaquin Phoenix.

8. "Face" — Brockhampton

9. "Pink Matter" — Frank Ocean

10. "Mary" — Yellow Ostrich

Let it be heard that everything does turn around!

11. "From the Dining Table" — Harry Styles

I may be biased from my love for Harry Styles, but this is still a beautiful song to put on while studying or walking around campus.

12. "Hostage" — Billie Eilish

13. "Skinny Love" — Birdy

The original by Bon Iver is also quite lovely to listen to.

14. "The Good Side" — Troye Sivan

15. "Breezeblocks" — alt-J

A great bop to listen to while walking outside from class to class.

16. "Funtimes in Babylon" — Father John Misty

17. "Bless The Telephone" — Labi Siffre

18. "Paper Houses" — Niall Horan

19. "Rhode Island" — The Front Bottoms

As a college student in Rhode Island, and a New Englander overall, this song is perfectly suiting for my Sunday drives back to campus from my CT home.

20. "Bloom" — The Paper Kites

This is a lovely little song, able to calm any nerves or stress that one may have.

21. "Smithereens" — Twenty One Pilots

Twenty One Pilots is not normally a band I would classify as having "chill vibes," but this song off of their new album, "Trench," is quaint and cute for listening to on a fall afternoon.

22. "Solo" — Samsa

23. "Fallingforyou" — The 1975

Hands down one of the best songs to put on as background music while doing homework or for when you're trying to fall asleep.

24. "Sycamore Girl" — Rex Orange County

25. "November" — Tyler, The Creator

Because my November is (literally) right now.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
