In This Article:

I love going to concerts, there's something so special about the adrenaline you feel before, during and after a concert. Starting with the Jonas Brothers in 2009, I've always loved going to see some of my favorite artists live. There's just something about the energy of being in a jam-packed arena, surrounded by fans, listening to your favorite artist.

Here are 13 reasons why I'm a concert junkie.

1. The anticipation leading up to the concert

Weeks ahead of time you are listening to that artist on replay, preparing yourself for the night of your life.

2. Attending the concert with someone who shares the same joy as you

When you both look at each other in the midst of the craziness and smile, knowing you both are living your best life.

3. The road trip to the concert venue

No matter the distance you drive, it's always so worth it because the drive is filled with so much excitement and eagerness.

4. The lights

For me, the lights can totally set the mood for the entire show. The colorful, flashing lights can build so much suspense and positive energy to each and every moment.

5. Being in the same vicinity as your favorite artist

To actually think that you were sharing the same room with someone you admire so much is amazing to think about.

6. Getting to meet other fans

Hearing stories of how an artist's music has brought you together and created friendships is something special.

7.  The way you get lost in the music

Having every lyric memorized and singing alongside hundreds of people PLUS your favorite artist? It's an unforgettable memory.

8. The energy is unable to be matched

Everyone is just as hype as you are; yelling in excitement, smiling from ear to ear, and dancing to each song.

9. The feeling when your favorite song comes on

The moment in the concert when the beginning beats of your favorite song starts and your face lights up.

10. Losing your voice because you cheered so excessively 

Who cares if your voice gets lost in the crowd? I'm always cheering loud and proud (and maybe a little obnoxiously.)

11. The goosebumps

If you don't get goosebumps when your favorite artist is belting out the lyrics to their most powerful song then there's something wrong. (Sorry, I don't make the rules.)

12. The way your ears ring after the show ends

Listening to music at the highest volume possible, surrounded by hundreds of screaming fans can be a little bit overwhelming for your poor eardrums but it's totally worth it.

13. The lasting impression you have afterwards

The memories, the videos you captured while singing along to your favorite songs, and the selfies you took while cheesing too hard. The songs performed at the concert are forever changed for you; every time you listen to that artist you remember how you felt while hearing the song live and LOVING it.

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.
