Your Guide Through Gov Ball 2016

I’m a huge Gov Ball fan. This year will be my 4th time going to the music festival and I’m as excited as I was the first time I ever went to head back to Randall’s Island. So having been around the block a couple times I’ve picked up a few things here and there about the festival and about how to make the most of the three short days.

Here is what you can expect from the festival:

Amazing Food (and long lines)

Epic music from some of the best artists around including:

Kanye West

The Strokes

The Killers

Death Cab for Cutie

Beck

HAIM

Of Monsters and Men

Robyn

Chet Faker

Chvrches

Two Door Cinema Club

Mike Snow

Jamie XX

Cold War Kids

AND SO MANY MORE (http://governorsballmusicfestival.com/lineup/)

You won’t just find musical artists, but visual artists as well

You'll take some awesome pics that will make for the perfect insta

Expect some EPIC performances

So while you're enjoying the festival, REMEMBER TO:

Drink Water

Take Pictures

Don’t Litter

EAT EVERYTHING ALL DAY

Drink More Water

Take a nap

Laugh

Take More Pictures

Put your phone away and live in the moment

Sing

And Dance

What to Bring:

Sunscreen

Sunglasses

Disposable Camera or Instant Camera

Small Backpack or Fannypack

Phone Charging Case

Blanket to Sit On

Your ID if you wanna drink something ~other than water~

Comfy Shoes

Empty Water Bottle (you can fill it up there)

Flash tats

CASH - You will need lots of cash to buy food and drinks (that, yes, are definitely over priced, but don’t let that stop you!)

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
