27 Truths About The Faster Horses Festival

Just this past weekend the #partyofthesummer took place at the Michigan International Speedway and though this three-day country music festival has only been going on for a few years it's really gained popularity. This year the festival sold out and over 40,000 people attended. Did you head over to MIS for the festival? Or are you planning on attending next year? Read below for 27 truths about the Faster Horses Festival!

1. Even if you don't "like" country music, you'll like country music.

2. It's 100 percent acceptable to wear a bikini top, jean shorts, cowboy boots, flash tattoos and a camouflage baseball cap backwards for three days in a row.

3. It's a weekend you might have a hard time remembering but you'll NEVER want to forget!

4. The Cottage Inn guy driving around in a golf cart is the most amazing person ever. Not really, BUT when you find him at 1 a.m. while walking back from the concert and he has a large, hot, cheesy pizza that basically has your name written all over it he WILL seem like it.

5. Tents suck but they are cheaper than campers, and you won't care because you'll be having the time of your life at the #partyofthesummer.

6. It's totally acceptable to go full-on hillbilly for the entire weekend.

7. United States flag print and camouflage totally go together, I promise.

8. $10 for a bag for ice (I mean it's just frozen water!) is ridiculous but you'll pay for it anyway.

9. Peanut butter and jelly really was the best invention ever, and you probably ate a lot of it this weekend.

10. Not everything is going to go as planned and that is OKAY.

11. You will go through the McDonald's drive-through at least once.

12. Let's face it. It's more fun to be up front and really be a part of the crowd EVEN if that means standing on your feet for more than six hours and not leaving, FOR ANYTHING!

13. 'MURICA themed everything!


14. Your car battery probably died because you left your car on too long while charging your cell phone.

15. The line for the portable showers will forever be long.

16. The tram system is extremely frustrating.

17. You'll probably take lots of selfies, and that's totally acceptable.

18. You will play party games, corn hole included.

19. EVERYTHING will smell like bonfire.

20. There are other people your age everywhere, so it's really easy to make new friends.

21. By the end of the concert you'll have a very special bond with the people you stood next to all day long.

22. You will sing, really loudly, for hours on end.

23. It's all about good times, new friends and great music.

24. You and your besties will probably "stirrup" some trouble this wonderful Faster Horses weekend and you won't want to leave.

25. #fasterhorses

26. You WILL have the TIME OF YOUR LIFE. It'll be an unforgettable weekend.

27. You already can't wait for next year!

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
