10 Reasons To Stop Hesitating And Buy Yourself That Ticket Today

Summer is a magical time and what better way to spend it than at a music festival? I can say with 100% certainty that if you have yet to attend one, you are really missing out! Since I've already bought a ticket for two different ones this summer, I figured I should try to convince those of you who are on the fence.

1. The experience.

The overall experience is like no other... There is so much to do and so many cool things to see while you're there. The memories you make will seriously stay with you forever.

2. Meeting new people.

Giphy

I met so many fun people who were so open to get to know you! It's crazy how easily you can get along with strangers at music festivals because everyone is there for the same reason. It makes you wish everyone was always that friendly.

3. Getting together with your friends.

Giphy

This is the perfect excuse to pile your friends in the car and have the best weekend of your lives! It makes you all so much closer at the end of it.

4. The outfits.

Giphy

This is always fun! Regardless of if you are a stylish person, you are bound to see some pretty crazy costumes!

5.Wide variety of music.

Giphy

There are hundreds of artists who perform at these things. One of the things I enjoyed the most was getting exposed to artists I had never even heard of before.

6.Camping.

The camping gives you a real Woodstock feel. It's really cool to just submerge yourself in the festival culture and have fun doing something you don't normally do.

7. Always something to do.

There are sooo many things going on around the camp sites and inside the music area. It's not just music, there is art, food, shows, vendors, clothes, etc. You will never be bored.

8. The stages.

Giphy

Listening to live music is pure happiness to me but when the artist on stage makes the show something spectacular to look at, it's even more amazing. You can almost feel the music take over you. It's very special.

9. More bang for your buck.

If you think about it, you are actually saving money. A normal concert ticket for one artist is around $100 and most festival tickets are around $300. So, in reality, you are getting so much more out of a musical festival instead of a single show.

10. Travelling.

Giphy

It's always fun to travel and see different cities and states! Road trips are one of my favorite things to do. Tip: Listen to the artists you will be hearing live, on the way there! It gets you so much more pumped up than you already were.

Being able to say you have seen your favorite band or artist live is an amazing feeling. I think we should start spending our money on moments we will cherish and remember forever instead of things you will forget about a week later. Buy the tickets.

Whether you're commuting or dorming, your first year of college is a huge adjustment. The transition from living with parents to being on my own was an experience I couldn't have even imagined- both a good and a bad thing. Here's a personal archive of a few of the things I learned after going away for the first time.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

For many undergraduates across the nation, the home stretch has begun. Only one more semester remains in our undergraduate career. Oh, the places we will go! For the majority of college seniors, this is simultaneously the best and worst year out of the past four and here’s why.

1. The classes you are taking are actually difficult.

A schedule full of easy pottery throwing and film courses is merely a myth on the average campus. With all of those prerequisites for the upper-level courses and the never-ending battle you fight each year during registration for limited class seats, senior year brings with it the ability to register for the final courses you need to fulfill your major. Yet, these are not the easy entry level courses. These are the comprehensive, end of major, capstone courses designed to apply the knowledge from all your previous courses, usually in the form of an extensive research paper or engaged learning project. The upside is you actually probably really enjoy these classes but alas there is no room for slackers here.
