Just to make up for my lack of posting my favorite songs I'm going to give you three! My first song for this week is A Litte Party Never Killed Nobody from The Great Gatsby Soundtrack. The song features Black Eyed Peas singer Fergie, Q-Tip and GoonRock. The song has a fun beat that had me hooked from the first listen. This song really makes you want to dance until you drop. That may be just me because I love to dance so much.

My second pick for this week is Get Lucky by Daft Punk featuring Pharrell Williams. I've always been a fan of Daft Punk. My brother is an even bigger fan than me. He's been blasting their new album Random Access Memories every time he gets in the car. I had the pleasure of joining in on a trip to the mall and from then on the song was stuck in my head.

And last but not least, my third pick for this week is Treasure by Bruno Mars. I love this man and his music. He just has a swagger that I love. He's always releasing songs that have me belting the lyrics whenever I get the chance. He performed Treasure at the Billboard Music Awards not to long ago and his performance was entertaining. The song has a bit of disco feel that makes you want to dance. I'm a fan of funk music so this one hit the target. I hoping to get tickets to see him when he comes to D.C. next month.

This just so happens to be my first complete week home from school. I can't believe another year has gone by and I am an up and coming junior in college. High school seems so far away but at the same time still close. This may be caused by continued friendships and social media where I can see what everyone is saying and doing.

So many people go into their summers vowing that this one will be better than the last or the best one yet. For the most part your summer is what you make of it.

• If you want to go to the beach, go. Plan the trip with friends and even family and make it happen.
• Want to read the latest book you haven't had time to pick up? Visit the nearest bookstore, find the perfect reading spot and get lost. Get one of the many Best Seller's List and take your pick.
• Have been telling yourself that you're going to work out and get in shape? Have you been procrastinating? If your answer is yes it's time for you to get up off of the couch and hit the gym. Can't make it to the gym? Use what you have at home. Put on some music and dance! It burns calories and if you're doing it right you can even tone your body. What do think Zumba is?
