I arrived in time-- 5:30pm-- which was late. The line wrapped around the block and I was in the middle somewhere. I went alone to this concert and as a newbie did not know the rules or anything. As soon as I got inside I went to the front area of the stage so I could be closer.

The first band that came on was Bad Omens. I had never heard of them because they are a newer band and now I'm obsessed with their self-titled album. The band had a good vibe and was a good start to the show. They were more supportive of the crowd being there to support music. They did a great performance and overall I'm just a new fan.

Upon A Burning Body was another band whom I didn't know much about.I haven't heard any of their songs other than: See Stars and Born of Osiris. Their music is catchy and they have a great sound to them. The band was nice and exciting.

The Burial played next. Once again I did not know them either but they-- just like Upon A Burning Body-- they were exciting and everyone else knew them.

I See Stars were better in concert. You could hear every word better live than through your headphones. They included the crowd in a Mannequin Challenge video they were doing.

Born of Osiris were the prefect segue to Asking Alexandria. They were nice, loud and their lyrics were amazing. All in all I feel that all the bands in the 10 Years In The Black tour were amazing and had a great connection the the audience.

Asking Alexandria were great in concert. Danny and Bruce joked with the audience and really told a story of their time together as a band. From their first song to their last, Danny joked about everything down to a fan throwing her bra at him and claiming to get pink eye because something fell in his eye. Danny voice sounded better than ever.

In the end, I was happy and grateful that I went. I caught Cameron's pick when he threw it into the crowd, which I would have never gotten otherwise.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
