10 Ways You Know You Live Near Xfinity Center

Along with the warm weather brings the most beloved concert season. And nobody understands concert season much like people who live near Xfinity Center. Through good times and through bad times, Xfinity Center has held many of your memories growing up if you are part of one of the lucky towns that surround it. Here are a few ways you know you live near Xfinity Center...

1. You only buy tickets for the lawn.

And if there aren't any lawn tickets left, you will pay for a real seat. Then what do you do? You go to the lawn anyways even though you paid for a more expensive ticket.

2. You know the spot that your town clusters.

As you walk through the lawn, while somehow running into every single person you specifically didn't want to see, you notice the separations of towns. Your town has their own specific spot; and that's where anyone and everyone gathers, and every so often you go to check out the other town's spots.

3. You have your "never again" experience at Xfinity where you promise you will never return.

And then, of course, you return.

4. All of your money goes toward concerts.

It's so convenient, and "nothing else is ever going on in my town." Yet I have to admit I have spent an unhealthy amount of money on concert tickets -- and for some artists I didn't even like.

5. You insist you need tickets for a certain band and then don't pay attention during the concert.

Everyone likes to pretend they are really there to see their favorite artist, and if you're in a real seat, that's likely true. Though, for the vast majority of us, we don't pay attention to a single song that is played because we are too busy socializing with every surrounding town.

6. You are never sure the actual name of the concert venue.

Why can't they just pick a name and keep it? By the time I catch on to saying the new name they gave the place, they already have changed it to the next one.

7. You sometimes go to the tailgates even if you don't plan on going to the concert.

No ticket? Not a problem. You still go to the tailgate, the best part concerts for many, and hangout with your friends until they have to go in. You will also likely witness the many people who don't make it past the tailgate...

8. You or your friends have snuck into a concert.

You've heard all the different ways of sneaking in. Whether it be over or under the fence, there is no escaping the inevitable thorn bushes that you have as battle wounds after sneaking in.

9. Your Instagram is filled with concert pictures every weekend of the summer.

Not only that, but your entire Twitter feed is filled with, " Selling a *insert concert* ticket," too.

10. You have a love/ hate relationship with Xfinity.

Enough said.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

11 Times Aubrey Plaza Described Sophomore Year

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.
