10 GIFs To Accurately Show Your Excitement For The Dixie Chicks Tour

After they announced their tour in Europe earlier this fall, the Dixie Chicks announced that they will be touring the United State in the summer of 2016 for their DCX MMXVI World Tour.

Now, if you are anything like me, you grew up listening to all of the Dixie Chicks songs from "Wide Open Spaces" to "Goodbye Earl," and from "Cowboy Take Me Away" to "Not Ready To Make Nice." This trio is one of country musics' biggest groups of all time, and for good reason. The Dixie Chicks have sold over 30 million albums worldwide, making them the United States' best selling female band of all time. Wow. They are truly incredible. Even though they haven't come out with any new music as a trio since 2006, fans all over the world still adore the Chicks and are super ecstatic for their upcoming tour. And for fans like me, it was such a big surprise that my childhood idols would be touring in the United States. In their announcement video on Facebook, Natalie starts out by saying "Just when you thought you were safe, America, we're back!" Martie explains that it's been ten years since their last tour, and then Emily concludes, "there's no telling what will happen this time."

Ahhh! How could that video not get you excited for the tour? So, to sum up my joy, here are 10 gifs to perfectly describe my excitement for the Dixie Chicks tour for next summer.

When you find out the Dixie Chicks are finally touring in America next summer for the first time in forever.

When you learn that they are coming to a town near you in 2016.

When you finally get to purchase your tickets for the tour and get your confirmation email.

When you randomly remember that you are going to see Martie, Emily, and Natalie in the flesh in just a few short months.

When people question why you are so excited to see "just some group" in concert.

When you learn that some of your friends have no idea who the Dixie Chicks are and also do not know any of their songs. *sigh*

When you get to opportunity to show your uncultured friends the beautiful songs of the Dixie Chicks (i.e. "Wide Open Spaces," "You Were Mine," "Travelin' Soldier")

When you listen to any of their amazing songs and cannot just sit back and resist the urge to dance.

Or you cannot contain your inner Chick when your favorite song plays. You belt those lyrics!

When you are just so excited to finally see your childhood idols in concert on their world tour!

But in all seriousness, the Dixie Chicks are one of those bands that I grew up with. Their songs bring back so many memories from my childhood. So this tour is more than just seeing some country band. It is truly amazing to get to see a trio that helped shape the memories throughout my life.

See you in June, Dixie Chicks!

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.

Sometimes my brain just starts turning on an idea and it doesn't want to stop.

I don't know if it is related to my anxiety, perfectionism or depression. I don't know why it happens. It's frustrating, it's painful and it stops me from functioning.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.
