If You've Never Been To A Music Festival Before, I've Got 10 Reasons Why You Absolutely Must Go
Leila Yasha

Summer is prime time for music festivals around the world. From your local music festival to large ones all across the continents, here are 10 reasons why music festivals are so great.

1. The music

Giphy

Anyone from renown legends to new artists can be included in the lineup. Festivals are the prime place to hear live music and experience something you'll never forget.

2. You get to spend time with your crew.

Giphy

Spending time with your friends at festivals makes all the difference. It strengthens your friendships and gives you memories to last a lifetime.

3. You meet so many new people.

Giphy

You meet the most interesting people at music festivals. These people are interested in the same artists as you are!

4. The flexibility

Giphy

If you don't like an artist at one stage and there's an artist you like performing at another stage, you can just float around. The flexibility of seeing the artists that you listen to and love makes all the difference. There is an act for everyone to enjoy and multiple stages that make this possible.

5. The food

Giphy

When you aren't running to catch the next set, there is delicious food to buy from vendors. You might end up falling in love with one of the vendors and ordering more and more.

6. Festivals are therapeutic.

Giphy

A music festival will rejuvenate your soul. After dancing and singing with friends and strangers, you will feel less stressed and much happier.

7. You get so much "bang for your buck."

Giphy

You can see a dozen artists at the price of a single ticket.

8. You discover tons of new artists.

Giphy

At a festival, chances are you might have never heard of one of the artists in the lineup. Once you listen to their set, you might fall in love and buy their music when you get home.

9. They give you an excuse to travel.

Giphy

Hitting the road with your friends and going somewhere is all part of the experience!

10. They will give you so many amazing memories.

Giphy

Whether it's one day or four days, a music festival gives you memories that will last forever.

These are just a few of the countless reasons why music festivals are the best. If you haven't been to one yet, I highly encourage you to do so and see their greatness for yourself!

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.

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.
