James Bay Concert Review
http://www.themarooncafe.com

I love music; always have and always will. The radio is great, I get to listen to different channels, ranging from country to the Top 100. Even though the radio is great, I like to venture off and find my own music, music that is different than other people's tastes. A few months ago, well more like back in January, a friend of mine said she likes James Bay's music. I thought to myself, "Who's James Bay?" So she showed me one of his songs, and I instantly fell in love with Bay's voice and songs. His voice is different from other male artists out there. In March, my birth month, I decided to buy Bay's Chaos and The Calm album as a birthday present to myself.

Now ten months later, it is October, and on October 1st a couple of my friends and I went to his concert in Boston. Now, I have been to many concerts such as two Taylor Swift concerts, two Kenny Chesney concerts, a Luke Bryan concert, a John Mayer concert, and a Katy Perry concert. So I have been to eight concerts in total so far, but Bay's concert I was the most excited for. Why, well I think it is because he is still building a fan base and some people are still not familiar with him yet. That is what made the concert feel special in a way because he is still climbing his way to be even more known in the music industry.

Bay opened with "Collide" which got the crowd going for the rest of the concert. He played his smash hit "Let it Go" and the crowd sang along to every word with him. He sang my favorite song "If You Ever Want To Be In Love." My level of excitement when I heard the first couple of chords for this song skyrocketed, and he even had the audience sing the chorus with him one more time. Anywhere from the venue you, people could hear people clearly reciting the lyrics.

It was very cold that night, the rain was coming down and the wind wasn't helping as the venue sits on the water and is outside with only a tent covering the seats and stage. James Bay kept his crowd of fans entertained and I instantly forgot that I was cold and that my feet were numb.

Bay closed the show with another one of his popular songs "Hold Back the River." Once again fans were singing along with him while he played guitar and sang.

Next time James Bay comes to town, I know where I will be. He did not disappoint at all. If you haven't heard of him already, get on Youtube, Spotify or iTunes and buy his album; you won't be disappointed.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
