As a 22 year old guy in Indianapolis, quarantine didn't impact me too much. I had to work from home and obviously couldn't see my friends that much but it gave me a lot of time to try new things, and focus on my career. I'm sure my dogs loved it because I ended up taking them on walks four or five times a week.

Parson James is an extremely talented musical genius. You will know him from his masterpiece created in 2015 called "Stole the Show" which was also later remixed by Kygo. Parson had a similar experience physically. He spent time in quarantine focusing on his career and writing style as well. I spoke with him recently about how quarantine impacted his life and his answers blew me away and seemed very different from other artists. He said during quarantine he learned to be able to just be with himself and say no to the constant need of being around people. He took time to focus on himself and write new music such as his brand new song, "High Tide, Low Tide."

His new single was written during quarantine and not only is it extremely catchy but it has a strong message behind it everyone should hear. The lyrics discuss how putting others first all the time can be dangerous and how you need to remember to focus on yourself and your own health. The quarantine time period taught him this lesson clear as day with relationships he's had and new relationships he's found and he's able to express that message in his lyrics such as, "my empathy is killing me," "you always pull me closer right before you push me away," and more.

Parson is extremely excited about his new mindset he's found during quarantine and the new projects he's working on. He can't wait to share them with the world so make sure you're looking out so you're not missing out. His new single "High Tide, Low Tide" is out now and you can stream it wherever and watch the new video HERE

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
