On July 28th, 2018, Taylor Swift performed at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. It was her third show at Gillette for the Reputation Stadium tour, which makes her the first female to perform three nights in a row EVER at that venue! When she casually mentioned that in her opening speech, the crowd erupted in a deafening roar. Everyone had goosebumps.

I've been a TS fan since she released "Tim McGraw" in 2006, which makes me a 12-year Swiftie. Including the show I just attended, I have seen 4 of Taylor's tours: Speak Now, Red, 1989, and Reputation. While my favorite songs come off of Fearless, Speak Now, and Red, those concerts were not half as amazing as the show she performed just two weekends ago. I don't know what it was exactly, but the concert was by far the most life-changing show I've ever attended.

The songs on the album aren't her best (in my humble opinion), but she made up for that and then some at the show. Not only did she sing the tracks from REP, but she also sang throwbacks from previous albums, including "Should've Said No", "Lovestory", "Blank Space", "Ours", and "Style". Needless to say, the fans were emotional. This was the proof we all needed that the "old Taylor" isn't actually dead.

In addition to the superb mix of songs, the effects, instrumentals, interactions with the fans, videos between songs, choreography, the giant snake props, and everything in between were flawless. My friends and I were so in awe that we didn't even know what to say after the show. It was THAT good, guys! If you have the chance to attend one of her shows, do it. Just do it. Go in with whatever expectations you'd like, but be prepared to be blown away. Even though I'd like to say that I was the most excited for this tour, I wasn't; the songs weren't my favorite so the last thing I expected was to love the show. Your expectations can be high or low, but I promise you will not be disappointed.

To Taylor, from Taylor: thank 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.
