I don't know about you, but I start each day off with a one-mile walk to class. I have to have good tunes flowing through my ears during those 20 minutes, not to mention the walks between classes and the walks home. So, here is my 30 song playlist to get me through this almost unfamiliar concept we call walking to class.

To my fellow graduates,

We did it. And not just graduating — we've done so much more. We've done so much just go get to graduation. Most don't realize what goes into graduation on a students end. They know we pay to go to school, take classes, do homework, take finals, get credits, and in a few years we get a degree. But there is so much more to it than that. This is a tribute to the college grad.

It's summer time, which means between the time when school ends and summer jobs start, there is absolutely nothing to do other than lying around wondering what to do with your life. For the regular college students, this means starting or catching up with a new TV show, Asian drama, or anime. Of course, no one would like to admit that their summers started out this way, and there are many stages that one goes through in this time period.

It's crazy to think that I have only 3 weeks left until the end of my freshman year of college. When people told me that these 4 years would fly by, I didn't think it would happen this fast.

This year was a mix of a bunch of different emotions. I had highs, I had lows, I had feelings in-between.

Dear Anxiety, Thank You For Everything You Do And What You Make Me Do

Libby Tillander

I've always been a worrier. As long as I can remember, I've spent hours upon hours overthinking even the simplest of things, like whether or not something I mentioned in passing twelve years ago could have upset someone. Even ask my mom, she'll tell you all about the times I used to worry about silly little things since I was able to really worry about things at all. Now, worrying about literally everything that crosses my mind may seem like a hassle, and it is, but I truly don't think I would be where I am today without it.

FOMO: Fear of missing out.

We've all suffered from it. Honestly, it's pretty hard not to be a victim of FOMO in today's world of Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter. Our social media is bombarded with pictures and videos of people having, apparently, the time of their lives. We see a perfect highlight reel of people's lives and the cool, amazing things they've experienced every other day- it's a little hard not to feel left out, to feel like you're not as interesting, or to feel a tiny bit subpar.
