It's a Friday night!

Yay! Time for the weekend! To me, I think the weekend is like the mini vacation of the week, starting Friday night. What are you going to be up to? I love listening to music to unwind and de-stress from a whole week's work. But what to listen is the ultimate question. Below I have compiled and categorized a music by genre/occasion playlist for those Friday-don't-know-what-to-jam-out nights.

I tend to like to listen to music and either knit or crochet something in the meanwhile. However sometimes when there are too many words with a distracting beat it becomes hard to concentrate on the pattern I'm working on.

Friday Night Crafting Songs

"Fake ID" - Big & Rich

"Cheap Thrills" - Sia, Sean Paul

"I Mean It" - G-Eazy, Remo

"Hurricane" - Halsey

Sometimes I like to do light homework on Friday nights such as brainstorming for my upcoming paper. Yes, quite a shocker. Brainstorming sessions always require extremely calm and sentimental beats which allow all thoughts to flow onto my Word document or onto my notebook if I was writing ideas down the old fashioned way. Free association for the win!

Calm and Sentimental Brainstorming Music

"At Last" - Etta James

"To Whom It May Concern" - The Civil Wars

"Dust to Dust" - The Civil Wars

"Gymnopedie, No. 1" - Erik Satie

"Prelude in C sharp minor" - Frederic Chopin

I love to listen to anything from George Strait to Wiz Khalifa. Like I often say, I enjoy all types of music from slow smooth jazz to country to straight up rap. Yes, I like country music. In fact, I love it. There, I said it. It's so hard to choose a single favorite song. Some of my current country songs on the top of my list include:

"American Country Love Song" - Jake Owen

"Came Here to Forget" - Blake Shelton

"Die a Happy Man" - Thomas Rhett

"You and The Beach" - Luke Bryan

"Write This Down" - George Strait

And for straight up chilling...

"Scream" - Usher

"This Is What You Came For" - Rihanna & Calvin Harris

"Love in This Club" - Usher & Jeezy

"P.Y.T (Pretty Young Thing)" - Michael Jackson

"Smoke Signals" - Hotel Garuda

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
