Olivia (Lou) Westcott:
GOOD OLD DAYS – Macklemore feat. Kesha
Listening to this reminds me to take a deep breath and know that when I am older, I will look back on my experiences in college and probably not even remember the stress I was under. There are some amazing things I get to experience here, and I need to not hold onto the hard parts. I, and we as a campus, are capable of doing hard things and finishing the semester strong. We will remember these ‘good old days.’

Aries – Gorillaz ft. Peter Hook & Georgia
This song gives me a calming vibe and just allows me to think peacefully while listening to it. I have listened to it before while I was working, and just appreciated the mindset and focus I was able to maintain while listening.
