Top 10 Songs of 2017
BET.com

All throughout 2017, there were numerous songs that seemed like this year's anthem. From Rockstar by Post Malone to Body Like A Back Road by Sam Hunt, these songs were constantly on repeat in every American's car.

1. "Something Just Like This" by the Chainsmokers feat. Coldplay

What a banger. And it's even better in concert.

2. "Despacito" by Luis Fonsi feat. Justin Bieber

There are so many different variations of this song due to its popularity, but real Justin Bieber fans know that this is the best version.

3. "Young, Dumb, And Broke" by Khalid


A song about the lives of high schoolers. And inevitably college students. Because I'm young, dumb and broke.

4. "Castle on the Hill" by Ed Sheeran

Whenever I turned on the radio in my car, I could always count on this song being played on multiple stations. Ed Sheeran did it again, and this song just proves it.

5. "Sign of the Times" by Harry Styles

You think this song is gonna start off slow but you're wrong. It picks up in beat and you find yourself dreaming that Harry honey will sing you this to sleep every night.

6. "That's What I Like" by Bruno Mars

Bruno Mars is a baaaad man. He has multiple #1 hits on the charts, and this is just one of them. Whether you don't want to do anything all day, or you just had a bad breakup, Bruno Mars hits you right where you need it in every single one of his songs.

7. "Body Like A Back Road" by Sam Hunt

HOT DAMN this man is sure fine. So is his music. This started off being a hit in country music but then expanded into the pop hits as well. If you want a good driving down the road windows down kind of song, this is it.

8. "HUMBLE" by Kendrick Lamar


Truly one of the best from Kendrick Lamar. This song has it all.

9. "There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back" by Shawn Mendes

My "Man Crush Monday" every day. Name a hotter man. I'll wait. This song just reiterates that Shawn Mendes is here to stay and not going away for a long time.

10. And my favorite song of 2017: "Rockstar" by Post Malone

When I first saw Post in concert two years ago as the opener for the Biebs, I never imagined that he would make it to where he is today. In fact, I remember thinking "oh this guy is just another Lil Rapper wannabe." But now Post is constantly on every single one of my Spotify playlists and I can't wait for him to come out with new music.

There you have it. The best of the best of music in 2017. These songs are powerful, and the best party songs that there are currently.

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.

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.
