Study Songs

I know it’s hard to remember the people we used to be.

I’ve had to learn what I’ve got, what I’m not and who I am.

See, I’m a new soul, I came to this strange world.

Yeah I’m living that Hill life, living without any strife.

And it feels so amazing, can’t see it coming and we’ll never grow old again.

And this old world is a new world for me. 

I loved how the songs I listen to while I do my homework basically describe my experience so far at UNC. So, these are my top study songs in the order of the medley I created.

1) Payphone by Maroon 5 featuring Wiz Khalifa

A perfect song when I'm working on a tough chemistry problem and it feels like "all of my bridges burned down."

2) I Won't Give Up by Jason Mraz

A mediating song that is wonderful to listen to while reading about the Mexican revolutions of the early 1900's.

3) New Soul by Yael Naim

A lovely song with a piano accompaniment that is nice to listen to when I'm researching articles about music hallucinations (which are quite fascinating!)

4) Carolina State of Mind by The Tarpeggios

This song sung by a talented a capella group at UNC really puts you in that TarHeel Spirit when your listening to it outside especially while studying in the middle of the quad.

5) Chasing the Sun by The Wanted

It can be quite a repetitive song but its catchy beat helps you focus when your writing a paper for an English class.

6) Feeling Good by Nina Simone

This is an authentic bluesy tune perfect for working on a lab report. When you finish that report you are surely feeling good.

So, any other songs I should listen to while studying?

Final Note: I have been so blessed to be working with Five Star® over the last few months. It's been an amazing experience. If you're reading this please take the time and check out the program at www.tinyurl.com/FSTeam. The other people on the Ambassador program I've worked with are truly amazing people and I am SO glad they have been in my life. Even though we may be across the country, we all share this special bond for sharing our love of Five Star® products. Although, it may be the end I think this quote from Dr. Seuss sums it up “Don’t cry because it’s over, SMILE because it happened.”
