Going to concerts is one of my favorite things ever. The energy you feel in the room driven by the adrenaline pumping through everyone’s vein is one of the greatest feelings in the world. Everyone is there to have a great time, and the whole experience is so refreshing for your soul.


Recently, I’ve been craving to go a good concert. Thankfully, DNCE answered my prayers! It was recently announced that DNCE is coming to the Hilton Coliseum in Ames on April 5th, and I am beyond excited. I’ve only dreamed that DNCE would be one of the most energetic and upbeat concerts to go to, and now in April I will have the opportunity to testify to that.


Their first album, DNCE, is one that I purchased when it was released back in November of 2016. I gave it some listens here and there, but I really didn’t appreciate it until I dived back into it at the beginning of 2017. It was then that I realized how incredible of a band DNCE is.


Never before have I heard music that is pure fun. I can only imagine that DNCE enters the studio and starts a jam session that would be comparable to real life Rock Band. In fact, I’ve been a huge advocate for getting every DNCE song on Rock Band. Every single one of their songs contains a funk that reflects what “groovy” meant in the past, but it is definitely a sound that belongs in today’s age. Each song is stylistically structured with elements of funk that makes DNCE feel like they craftily nurtured each song while acting upon the idea that every part of their job should be fun.


I can’t recommend DNCE enough, especially to those who can dig a good beat and/or groove in music. If you’re into older generations of music, you would definitely like the music DNCE creates. If you look further into their music and discover you’re a fan, remember they’ll be in Ames in April!

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.
