Studio Recordings are OVERRATED

It's time to listen to something real.

Studio Recordings are OVERRATED

Autotune is taking over the world.

That's right. I said it. Someone had to.

Autotune is great in the studio, but people no longer appreciate the sound of live music. So many artists, although it is a personal opinion, are given too much fame without being able to actually SING live.

The "coffee shop" sound is no longer a thing. Let me give you an example.

This lovely couple called "Us The Duo," is supposedly, as stated on America's Got Talent, that "coffee shop" sound. The question is...what's wrong with that?

The judges did not seem to acknowledge the meaning and talent that they had. Ironically enough their song that they wrote, were their wedding vows to each other on their wedding day (which is super cute), and it was featured in a film (which the judges seemed to have no knowledge of). They also mentioned how playing an "original" is "risky." But how can an original song on a show where you are there to prove your talent, be so bad?

Isn't the point of every new talent, to show how different and original they are from the rest of the world?

What I don't understand is how they had such a hard time giving them a yes. Check out the video if you can! ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBg7UcXj2Bg )

Here is the amazingly talented couple:

People need a wake-up call! There are Youtubers and many others out there that don't need that crisp studio sound in order to sound good! Although I love the clearness, sometimes we forget to appreciate the little natural human imperfections that come with a voice.

This is one of the many mundane things that people are losing their touch on. Now call me overdramatic; that's fine, but, do you see my point?

Stop idolizing human beings that are adequate, and start seeking those that shock you, inspire you, and absolutely AMAZE you!

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.
