The Beauty That Is James Bay

I'm always looking for new artists to follow and watch grow. When I find a new artist, I automatically become obsessed. Sometimes I'll only be hooked for a little while, but I'll keep the music that I fell in love with for a long time. One artist that I found via Spotify radio back in 2013 was James Bay. Since then, I've been hooked and obsessed with him (yes I know that sounds creepy, but most of us have been or still are obsessed with musicians, bands, or other celebrities) and his music.

I'm one of the lucky ones that discovered him early on in his career. But most people came across his music when he performed live with Tori Kelly at the 2016 Grammy Awards. A year after his debut album, "Chaos and the Calm" came out. That performance was my favorite of the entire night, and it definitely showcased both of their talents.

But one major reason why I am in love with James Bay's music is his ability to perform acoustically. Acoustic performances are my absolute favorite and it takes an incredible amount of talent to perform acoustically and to be able to do it well. Here are just two acoustic performances of his of my two fo my all time favorite songs, "Let it go" and "Scars."


I'm so excited to see his music evolve and to hear more of his beautiful music. Written and sung by an even more beautiful human being. I hope that you enjoy his music as much as I do, please, if you already haven't yet, listen to his full debut album Chaos and the Calm. Trust me you won't regret it.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
