Goodbye Soulja Boy, Hello Bryce Vine

Fordham students have all heard by now that Soulja Boy has been dropped as Fordham's headliner for Spring Weekend. The announcement came following a few weeks of arrest rumors and general gossip among the student body stemming from media leaks of charges brought against the rapper by a woman who claims he held her hostage.

The news was met with a general consensus of disappointment from Fordham students who were anxious to find out who could possibly be replacing Soulja Boy so last-minute. CAB (Campus Activities Board) surprised us all with a quick announcement of the entertainer who would be stepping in: Bryce Vine.

Bryce who? Vine what? I woke up from a nap to texts from at least five different friends all along the lines of: "WTF is this??" If you, too, were disappointed in the choice of replacement, you are in good company.

Most of my friends didn't recognize the name immediately. Even after a quick Google search told us that he was the artist behind the pop-hit "Drew Barrymore," we still didn't know much else about him or his music.

I've been doing a little personal research (AKA listening to his singles) and honestly? I was pretty impressed. His songs are low-key bops and I'm not mad about getting to hear him live. Some of my friends and classmates are still upset, but I'm pretty pumped.

Bryce Vine seems like a pretty great artist, and he has a fan base that keeps growing. We're lucky to have any performer so last minute, much less someone who's already making waves in the music world. If nothing else, it's a chance to listen to new music and enjoy time with your friends.

I have to admit though, I'm still a little upset. I'd been practicing my Pretty Boy Swag in the shower for a solid month and a half. No matter how good Bryce Vine's performance is, it's still disappointing that I don't get to Crank Dat with the Soulja Boy.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
