15 Reasons Why You Should Go to a Concert ASAP

It's concert season, which means a whole lot of music and a whole lot of fun. No matter your age, concerts never get old, whether this is the first time you are seeing the band or the twentieth. Here are some of the best reasons to go to a concert.

1. You are hearing your favorite bands LIVE!

It's not listening to them on your iPod or watching their music videos. They are right in front of you. There is nothing better than hearing a band live.

2. There is no better adrenaline rush than when the act appears on the stage for the first time.

The countdown stops. The lights shut off. The crowd starts to scream. And some of your favorite people walk on stage. It's an overwhelming feeling of love and excitement.

3. Awesome band tees.

The $35 T-shirt is so worth it. Wear it to bed, the next week of school. It's your new baby.

4. You meet awesome people who share the same love for the artist as you do.

You don't realize how much love people have for bands until you meet them. You have something in common with the people you are seated next to. Make conversation. Ask them who their favorite is or what their favorite song is. You can build a friendship just through some simple questions.

5. Your inner fangirl comes out.

High pitched screams, "I LOVE YOU" posters (as long as they aren't blocking anyone), and every which way you freak the freak out is acceptable at a concert.

6. Sometimes you are lucky enough to meet the band.

To meet the people behind the music that has helped you through the good, the bad and the ugly has to be one of the best feelings in the world. Whether it's a meet and greet or standing behind the venue where artists enter, it's definitely worth a try.

7. You discover new music.

Between the opening acts and brand new music by the artist, you'll find new favorite songs that will be on repeat for weeks after the concert.

8. You get to show off your sick dance moves.

Don't be afraid to bust a move!

9. The artist interacts with you making you feel like the coolest person in the arena.

Whether they make eye contact with you or grab your hand, the artist knows how to make you and the crowd feel important.

10. It's the best workout.

You know you've been to a good concert if you wake up the next morning hardly able to walk.

11. It is one giant jam session with your favorite band.

Where else is it acceptable to scream your heart out to your favorite songs without getting a noise complaint?

12. How beautiful is this?

Moments like these are some of my favorites. When the artist starts singing a slow song, flashlights go on and wave around creating a beautiful atmosphere leaving you in awe.

13. You have amazing stories to share.

As much as the night will be a giant blur, you'll remember the little things that happen throughout the night. Maybe it's a silly dance move or they play your favorite song, those will be the things you remember the most.

14. It's a judge-free zone.

Everyone is there for the same reason as you. Concerts bring everyone together for the passion and enjoyment of music.

15. The memories you make are unforgettable.

Post-concert depression is real. Make the most of those few hours where every worry in the world disappears. Dance the night away. Sing your heart out. Make new friends. You'll want to go back to that night the very next day and every day after.

Go to a concert. You will never experience something so great in your life.

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.
