Words are power" they can inspire or destroy, motivate, change lives, minds and history. While many argue that they are meaningless and “actions speak louder than words”,words are how we articulate our thoughts and feelings.

With so many different types of online communication in the 21st century, language is constantly evolving, yet altering our own perceptions at the same time. The words of influential people, like writers, artists and political speakers, such as Kurt Cobain or the Dalai Lama have changed the world.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’.

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.
