The Greatest 4 Days Of The Whole Year

I salute you country jam

The Greatest 4 Days Of The Whole Year

Country Jam: If you've ever heard of this place, I'm sure you've heard remarks such as, "it's a four day bender" and, "it's s rage fest" and my personal favorite, "four days of nothing but booze, music, and half naked cowboys and cowgirls".

It's totally true. It's my "happy time" and my paradise out of 365 days in the year. what I would like to say about country jam is if you haven't been, it's probably because you hate country music, and fair enough, although I would favor this vacation over any other.

A lot of stuff goes on at country jam: you see bare ass people bangin' on tops of campers and rv's, condoms stuck to the inside of port-a-potties, a game of beer pong around every campsite corner, and the joy of seeing overly intoxocated people attempt to walk down the inconsistent and unruly bumps of the main walkway. It's honestly the best four days of the entire year, and I can't explain what it's like being here other than: it's fucking awesome.

So, thank you country jam. Thank you for more laughs, happiness, drunken tears, and drunken people then I would get all year. Thank you for bringing every beautiful cowboy in Colorado to one enclosed space. Thank you for making me more confident. Thank you for giving me four straight days of my favorite things.

Country jam is amazing. If you haven't been or are so unfortunate that you haven't even heard of this amazing drunk fest, please, please educate yourself. You'll drive how ever far it is into the western desert of this colorful state, and pull into more dust and the worst kind of hot you can imagine, but I promise, this is all worth it; you might leave country jam with more than multiple hangovers, a sunburn, and a new favorite artist. You could leave with the love of your life and newly found confidence.

There is so much more than a dusty cess pool in the middle of the desert that this place has to offer, I promise you, just get your favorite swim suit, your scuffed up pair of boots and all the beer you can buy. Open your ears and your heart, and you'll miss the first time you stop finding dirt in odd places

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
