2. The Governors Ball Music Festival

Every year Governors Ball aka Gov Ball, seems to be the second best thing to Coachella in terms of a festival like concert.

7. Kendrick Lamar: The Damn Tour

Not only is Kendrick Lamar going on tour, but he is bringing Travis Scott and D.R.A.M. This is probably one of the most talented groups of people that could go on tour together. Travis Scott is one of the best performers I have ever seen and if you don't go to this concert, you will regret it. Go see these guys on July 20th and 23rd at the Barclay's Center in Brooklyn, NY.

8. 4 Your Eyez Only World Tour: J Cole

Back in the fall of 2016 J Cole made it obvious he wasn't going on tour in 2017 after performing at The Meadows. He must have changed his mind so it would be a mistake not to see this amazing performer! Go see J Cole on August 1st or 2nd at the Barclays Center!

9. Coldplay: Head Full Of Dreams Tour

One of the last concerts of the summer is Coldplay. They have been around for a while, but their music never gets old. I saw them last summer and it was such an electrifying atmosphere. This concert was special because young kids to older adults were having just as much fun. They weren't supposed to be performing this summer, but they extended their tour because of the popular demand. This may be one of the last times Coldplay will go on tour; this isn't a concert you would want to miss. August 1st, MetLife Stadium, BE THERE!

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
