Hey everyone, hope your studying and exams are going well! Here’s some music to help you get through the grind: And in case you want more, here’s my playlist from 1st semester:

Everyone has their finals week vice, whether it’s that jumbo bag of Cheetos, or that hideous sweater that you’d usually never even consider wearing in public, or that pack of cigarettes you buy even though you don’t even know how to smoke them (a study break is a study break, right?). My particular vice has [...]

“Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent” – Victor Hugo I was born in the wrong generation. I would give anything to have been able to experience Woodstock and I sometimes feel that kids these days don’t know good music. I love Queen, the Beatles, the Who, [...]

Some of these I actually remember from elementary and middle school, and others I discovered after, but here are my top 13. Have a good one that didn’t make my list? Leave it in the comments! In no order other than the order I found them on my computer… 1. Mambo Number 5 – Lou [...]

Last week’s taste of summer transformed BU campus into an urban Pleasantville of shining faces and shirtless bros. This week the forecast will dip back into the 40’s and 50’s.

If you’re stranded in stress-land and celebrate the nativity of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, or celebrate [...]

Music is the ultimate motivator. A perfectly crafted playlist forces me to get my ass to the gym, if running a couple miles means listening to it. And once there, the up-tempo of a Robyn track pushes me through my last lap. Music’s motivational properties aren’t only applicable to exercise, though. A lot of people [...]

2 months and a few days ago, my ex-boyfriend passed away. He took his life in his St. Michael’s College dorm room. When I first heard, I didn’t believe it. My body rejected the news. It convulsed and pulsated and I grew dizzy, steeped in that delirious feeling you get like you haven’t eaten all [...]

Something that most people love: concerts. I, myself love seeing live music. That feeling you get when the band plays your favorite song and it gets so intense that you get goosebumps and almost feel like crying? Yeah ? one of the best feelings in the world. I love live music so much, you could [...]
