FINNEAS: 23 & Changing The World

5 Grammy Nominations. Multi-Instrumentalist. Singer-Songwriter. Bad Ass.

Those are all words that I would personally use to describe FINNEAS. This 23-year-old has smashed goals that some musicians only dream of achieving.

If you didn't know FINNEAS is Billie Eilish's older brother. I bet you also didn't know that he produced and co-wrote her entire last album. (He also wrote "Ocean Eyes" which launched her to stardom). This ultra-talented family has truly been backed by this lyrical genius. Don't get it twisted though, Billie and FINNEAS have two totally different sounds and personas while also being incredibly talented in their own ways.

FINNEAS has topped the Billboard 100, dabbled in acting (you may remember him from Glee), and written a #1 hit for Selena Gomez. Like I said before- Bad Ass.

During this crazy year, and his immense amount of success last year, he is finally starting to put out his own music. FINNEAS released his first single of 2020- "What They'll Say About Us"- after writing it at the end of June. In a statement with Rolling Stones, FINNEAS addressed the purpose of this song and how it was meant to provide solace to those losing loved ones during this pandemic and fighting the racially unequal system. With that being said, go watch the video and see how hard it hits you now.

His newest album was also just released and is sure to have some buzz being generated very soon as it begins its ascent to the top of the charts. But I'll leave that for another article. So until then, stay home, stay safe, and jam out to some FINNEAS.

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.
