"Wonder" music video

A new era of Shawn Mendes has arrived. The pop singer dropped his new single, "Wonder" last night, along with a compelling, powerful music video.

Already the number three trending music video on YouTube with over three million views in less than 24 hours, this song proves that it is the perfect title track to his next album, set to come out Dec. 4.

This song reminds me of a movie. A mystery movie set in a Pacific Northwest forest with a hint of romance and lots of action. It will make you want to run in the rain, through a forest and to a giant cliff just to listen to crashing waves in an ocean. If you're like me, you'll be bopping your head and feeling every emotion by the end of the song.

Leading up to the music video release, Mendes answered questions from fans on YouTube during a virtual live event. When asked why he chose "Wonder" as the first single, Mendes said, "The songs are all so special to me, but 'Wonder' is kinda like the mother of them all lmao."

So, if "Wonder" is the "mother of them all," what can we expect from the rest of the album?! More powerful ballads, love songs for Camila, creative and meaningful lyrics? Whatever makes up the rest of the album, I am certain that we are going to see a new side to the 22-year-old singer-songwriter.

The Mendes Army has been craving new Shawn Mendes music since his last release in summer 2019, steamy "Señorita" with girlfriend Camilla Cabello. On Wednesday afternoon, when his profile went blank and he tweeted a hint to new music, I instantly knew new music was coming. Boy, it came, and I can't wait for more. Shawn surprised pop music fans once again.

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.

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.
