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.

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
