7 Reasons Ariana Grande's  'Sweetener' May Be This Summer's Sweetest Gift

On August 17, 2018, Ariana Grande released her fourth studio album "Sweetener" and it immediately took the internet by storm. Although it is no shock that fans of Grande instantly became obsessed with her newest work of art, it also has been incredibly successful on the charts. Fans are now eager for tour dates and new music videos while "God is a Woman" and "No Tears Left to Cry" are still blasting through every radio around the country. Here are seven reasons why "Sweetener" is everything we needed this album to be and more.

1. The VOCALS. 

Giphy

The vocals may be the most crucial aspect to any album, but Ariana takes the concept of "slaying" to a whole other level. Between the whistle tones and powerful high notes, several songs leave both fans and listeners in awe of her vocal ability.

2. The collaborations 

Giphy

Nicki Minaj, Pharrell Williams AND Missy Elliot. It does not get much better than that, folks.

3. The catchiness behind every time Ariana says "yuh" 

Giphy

"I can be all the things you told me not to be, YUH."

4. The concept that it's both empowering and uplifting

Giphy

Female power, positivity and serenity are just some of the themes this album has to offer. Many may be tempted to listen to Sweetener when they're feeling like they need some encouragement.

5. The beats and vibes 

Giphy

Try not to dance or bop to the track "Borderline." It may be a bit of a challenge.

6. Her lyrics and their meaning

Giphy

Listeners can tell Grande did not take the easy way out with the writing behind this album. Each song has lyrics that are both catchy, when appropriate, but also meaningful.

7. The love and happiness behind almost every track

Giphy

It's evident for listeners that Grande is happy where she is in her life right now. However, in case you need more convincing, take a listen to the track titled "Pete Davidson."

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.
