6 Things You Feel After A Concert
Kathleen Naessens

In This Article:

This one goes out to all my fellow concert addicts. If you have ever gone to a concert before, chances are high that you know the exact feelings that I express in the next six points.

If not, you're lying to yourself.

1. Did that just happen?

Is this real life? It's over already? Did I really just experience that? Why isn't it sinking in? When will it? Can I have a do-over, or, someone please pinch me. That did not happen.

2. Absolute euphoria

You know what I mean. The adrenaline rush that stays with you as you leave the concert. Feeling on top of the world and ready to take it over because of the energy level you're on. Listening to the band's music over and over again because you just saw them! The cloud nine moment of concerts.

3. Reflection

Now that your life is forever changed, or so it feels like, you have a second to register the events that just occurred. This is the time where you might sift through your pictures and videos, deciding what to post along the way. Looking back on all of those perfect concert memories you just made, still not registering what happened.

4. Reality strikes

The realization that you will never experience exactly what you just saw ever again. You are back in the real world and the best you can do is turn Spotify all the way up and replay the show in your mind.

5. Post-Concert Depression

It's a real thing. Staring at your ceiling, feeling a strange sadness pushing on you. An hour earlier you were thriving at the concert of your dreams and now all you have left are the low quality pictures that seemed so much better in the moment. It just ended so soon, how could you not be upset?

6. Acceptance

Okay, okay, of course you were sad that this concert was over, but you will go again next time they come. In the mean time, maybe you can convince your friends to go to another concert with you next month. You purchase the tickets, you are completely broke, but you get to continue the concert-going cycle you love so much. With another concert coming up, you have something to look forward to! Nothing else matters until...

So there you have it, the six stages you go through after a concert! It just hurts in such a good way. See you all at the next concert.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
