8 Things I Want To See At Coffeehouse

It will be legendary

One of Liberty University's most popular events is Coffeehouse - a campus-wide talent show with acts rivaling those you would see on national television. The Student Activities committee plans and hosts this event held once a semester. Each Coffeehouse in the fall semester is Christmas-themed, but the spring semester has more variety. Previous themes include British Invasion and the 90's. This semester Spring Coffeehouse will be held on April 9th and the theme is Legends.

I'm excited to see where Student Activities goes with this theme. We may be seeing a lot of Classic Rock, Oldies, and hopefully some iconic chart toppers. So here's a little bit of what I think would make Coffeehouse legendary (pun intended):

1. QUEEN!

A philosophy instilled in me by my brother is that Queen was and is still one of the very bests bands that has ever existed. "Bohemian Rhapsody" is a classic but it's a bit predictable. I understand that "Fat Bottomed Girls" might be controversial, but let's have an open mind about it. Bottom line: Just give me some Queen.

2. Elvis

With a theme like "Legends" we're almost guaranteed an Elvis impersonation. I'm curious to see how this turns out.

3. D-Trex

The most fantastic and well-known dance team at Liberty never disappoints. I have no idea what to expect from them this semester but I have complete faith in their abilities. Part of me hopes that we'll see a mash-up of legends through the decades.

4. Fillers

Between acts Student Activities always shows videos and includes the audience in competitions. I wouldn't be disappointed if we continued the tradition of trivia and lip sync battles.

5. Boy bands

If you know anything about me, you know that I have an unhealthy obsession with boy bands. And there have been plenty of legendary boy bands through the ages. As stated before, I want to see some Queen. But we can't forget that The Beatles were a boy band. Maybe you don't think that The Backstreet Boys and NSYNC are legends, but you're wrong. (Actually, they probably won't make an appearance, but a girl can dream.)

6. The Vegan Llamas

If you have been to previous Coffeehouses in recent years, you know what I'm talking about. This group has a look and a sound that you just can't forget. They could perform another Christmas song and I wouldn't complain.

7. The Spice Girls

I mentioned boy bands, but everybody needs a good girl band in their life too. Maybe throw in some Britney Spears too? Okay, these aren't quite legends but I digress...

8. The Rolling Stones

Everyone knows that The Rolling Stones is a legendary band and if one of their songs doesn't make it on the set-list, I'll probably throw a tantrum.


If you haven't noticed, this list basically turned into what a McKayla-themed Coffeehouse would look like, but I'm sticking to it. Tune in next week for a rant on how it how it exceeded all of my expectations. And don't forget to buy your Coffeehouse: The Legends tickets here.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
