5 Types Of People You'll Meet At A Concert
Google

The other day, at a Foals concert, I was just thinking about the kinds of people I've encountered at concerts. Ha! I've meet all kinds of weird and interesting people during concerts - including myself. I'm the type of girl who sings out loud, extremely loud, and doesn't know the lyrics at all, but I'm not embarrassed about it at all because deep down I know I'm a true fan. Last year, My friend and I decided to drive all the way to Atlanta, Georgia just to see Hozier (Andrew Hozier Byrne)–– it was an amazing experience to see him perform "Take Me to Church," and the crowd's reactions were interesting. All I can remember from that concert was me singing out loud and pretending I knew "Work Song." I also vaguely remembered a drunk woman who was kicked out from the beautiful venue (Tabernacle.) When Hozier was singing Work Song, there was a part of the song where he pauses, but I stupidly kept singing out loud–it was embarrassing to say the least. But after attending a few music festivals and concerts, I think I can ace listing all of the different types of people you'll meet at concerts.

Have Your Voice Heard: Become An Odyssey Creator

1. PRETENDS TO KNOW ALL THE LYRICS (AKA ME)

Yup - if you could read lips, you would see that mine don't match the song, but it's okay because I'm having a great time. At least Emma Stone now knows the lyrics to Pocketful of Sunshine.

2. THE GROUPIE

There's always the groupie at a concert, every time, and this person knows every lyric, is seemingly dying of happiness, sweaty, and always in the first row. Nonetheless, even the die-hard fan has a great time.

3. THE ANNOYING GUY

There's always the drunk guy who is trying to flirt. Well, if you're that guy, please STOP! It's extremely annoying because some girls are there for the music and not you.

4. PUGS NOT DRUGS (MESSED UP BY DRUGS)

Some concerts can serve as just another excuse to use drugs. If you ever go to Ultra Music Festival, you will know exactly what I'm talking about!

5. THE TEXTER/ PHOTOGRAPHER

Why though? Just why? Stop texting or taking photos – please, just enjoy the concert.


Now that you know the types of people you'll meet at a concert – do you fall under any of these categories? Because I know I do! It's okay, you're obviously not alone. Just keep having the greatest time ever because that's what matters the most. If you have ever had an embarrassing experience at a concert, please tell me about it, I would love know all about it!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
