The Jonas Brothers Are Back Together

This might make me sound insane or obsessive or whatever but I don't care.

After watching the Jonas Brothers' documentary, Chasing Happiness, I felt a lot of emotions. It was a fantastic film; it told their story very well and openly and had great footage and cinematography (in my opinion).

When I was a little teeny bopper at the ripe age of 12 I became aware of the Jonas Brothers and my world was rocked by them. I remember writing down all the lyrics to their songs so I could memorize them, I (still) have a folder dedicated to Joe Jonas with tons of pictures that I printed from my parents printer (yes, they were mad I used all the ink to print off pictures of a boy). My friends and I made dances to their songs, we giggled about us becoming Mrs. Jonas. My walls were covered from ceiling to floor with posters and after begging, my mom bought me tickets to my very first concert to see them along with 15,000 other screaming 12 year old girls. Four months later, I saw them again on the same tour. I had all the t-shirts, pins, books, you name it.

I dragged my mom to the store at midnight to get their albums when they officially released. I watched all of their silly YouTube videos, my friends and I made our own music videos to their songs and most importantly, I remember laying on my bedroom floor, pressing play on my boom box (!) and listening to their music on repeat, watching the ceiling fan spin and just soaking up their voices and their music. I started to play guitar because of Joe's scene in Camp Rock when he plays Gotta Find You. To say that these boys had an impact on me is an understatement.

When they broke up officially, I wasn't that upset because I could understand it. I was beginning to listen to other kinds of music as I grew older and I understood that the boys were becoming men and probably didn't want to keep making the same kind of music for young teens. So I moved on.

And then they came back and we're all so excited to have the Jonas Brothers in our lives again!

After watching the film, Chasing Happiness, I just felt all of those younger emotions come flooding back and was remembering all these memories I had that included the Jonas Brothers. I was sad that the brothers had gone through such a dark season when they barely spoke to each other, I was sad to see the way they just left each other and went on living their lives in different countries, living different lifestyles, meeting the loves of their lives and beginning families and new careers, etc. It was sad. I lost my S*** when I saw that Nick and Joe performed a show without telling Kevin because it's not a Jonas Brothers show without 1. All of the brothers and 2. Kevin spinning violently while jamming on his guitar. But I'm glad they hashed everything out. Sometimes, the only way to get through something is to go through it. They sat down, looked one another in the eye and spoke their truths and they've come back better than ever. This comeback is already incredibly successful (congratulations marketing team).

I feel like they've come back as mature adults, with a new sound that everyone is ready for. I'm kind of actually glad they took their break because it gave us, the fans, time to grow up as well. We all grew up together, did our things, have careers now and can be just fans. (I think it's also worth mentioning that a lot of bands thrive off of nostalgia of their fans and I don't think the JB will have that. Yes, there is nostalgia but they've got this whole new wave and it's awesome)

I know this all sounds ridiculous but my point is, I think every person has a band or a movie or TV show that holds an important part of them, that has impacted their lives so greatly that you feel connected to them and the Jonas Brothers are that for me. I'm happy they're back.

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.
