Kings of Leon WALLS Album Review
kingsofleon.com

The day is here KOL fans, and the wait is finally over! The WALLS album has officially been released, full of 10 tracks that will make you fall in love with Kings Of Leon all over again. If you were a fan of Come Around Sundown, this will also be a favorite. Go out and buy this new album, put some headphones on and just listen.

This album in particular still has the classic KOL tone, Caleb's raspy voice and all, but even starting with the marketing, it represents something a little different. The promotion and album cover artwork aren't the usual visuals like we've seen on Come Around Sundown and Mechanical Bull. The WALLS album features a very abstract picture, which teases at a new progressive type of sound. The band has said in several interviews that they've just "stopped giving a shit," about what other people think, and they produced exactly what they wanted. Each song plays around with different genres, including folk, rock, pop, and country. "Muchacho," features a fresh bass line while "Find Me," really shows off Caleb's voice, and "Around The World," has a melody that makes you want to get up and dance.

Overall, I thought this album showed huge vulnerability and growth for the band. Songs like "WALLS," and "Over," really play on different emotions than the band has in the past. Besides the fact that KOL's new music is an epic step for them as a band, they also announced a winter tour that stops in 17 cities across the U.S and Europe. The link to the bands website is linked below to follow the tour dates, as well as purchase your copy of WALLS.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.
