iHeart Radio Fiesta Latina Experience
Cloudfront

On Saturday, November 5th, Miami held the 2016 iHeart Radio Fiesta Latina at American Airlines Arena. Thanks to 1iota events, a group of friends and I got into the SOLD OUT concert to be seat fillers for this televised event. Before the madness began, I was seated right in front of the concert stage.

To be seated there for the first 30 minutes of the show was amazing. But what was even more amazing was the show! Being a proud Latina, I knew that the show was going to get my up on my feet to dance and sing all night long. Just how good the show was you might ask? Usually concerts last until 11 o'clock at night and begin at 9 o'clock, but this one started at 8 on the dot and lasted until 1 in the morning! Here are is my review of the incredible line up this year. Hope I can convince you to go next year!

Nicky Jam

He was the first performer of the night and what a way to begin the show! This has been his year with his songs being a delight to listen to. He definitely knew how to get the crowd pump and when the whole arena was singing along to his songs, you know he is a fan favorite.

Enrique Iglesias

Well.

It's Enrique.

He is always amazing, and the women go crazy every time he comes out.

No complaints. Just give me a one-on-one serenade.

The gif says it all.

Pitbull

Pitbull was praised for his community work in the 305 (Miami) before performing on stage. His performance was delightful, but it was the last one of the night so I was pretty tired to enjoy it. Most of the arena was getting slowly empty since it was midnight. It he performed earlier, I might have been more pumped to dance along to "Give Me Everything".

Juanes

While the arena did not look "lit" for Juanes, I enjoyed his performance a lot. His music has been playing in my house for years, so to finally get to hear some of his iconic songs my family and I would always listen to was a pretty cool experience. His vibe is very chill and it really makes you want to sing along to his music.

Daddy Yankee

HANDS DOWN. BEST PERFORMER OF THE NIGHT. His energy was so refreshing. His music is ICONIC. I didn't realize it until that moment that I literally grew up with him. All his song always play at ANY party you go to here in Miami, and to experience this Latino vibe and hype was so memorable. Currently checking if he is doing any tour.

Gente De Zona

This dynamic duo knew how to bring the house down. Their performances where full of energy and hype. They are killing in this year and it was awesome to get to hear one of my favorite party songs live.

Farruko

Don't really listen to him much, but the whole arena was really getting their dance moves on when he came on. He definitely was a fan favorite!

Yandel

Newly solo Yandel killed the game yesterday. His music was catchy and got many people up on their feet to dance.

J Balvin

Another fan favorite who got the area to sing along with him. This rising star of 2016 knew how to pump up the crowd and made many girls swoon.


Overall, the concert was a success and to be able to witness this for free was just the cherry on top.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
