ALBUM REVIEW: 'Future Friends' By Superfruit
Idolator

You've heard of Pentatonix, now get ready for Superfruit! Superfruit is the dynamic duo of Scott Hoying and Mitch Grassi, originally a YouTube channel, but now expanded into a full out music group. The YouTube channel has been home to several mashups and covers alike (how can we forget "Hip Hop Goes Broadway"?), but fans first got a taste of the pair's original music from the animated video for "Bad 4 Us".

Now, we've officially got a full-fledged Superfruit album, and it's like Christmas came early. "Future Friends" started out as two EPs come together for one giant album. It boasts 16 songs, one of which is a remix of the title track, and not your typical remix either as it is comprised solely of piano and a chorus of beautiful voices. Think of "Future Friends" as your feel good Friday night music. It's hard to pick a favorite because every song is as energetic and lyrical as the next.

It's a different vibe of music, especially coming from these two, who we are used to hearing in Pentatonix. Different in this case doesn't mean that it's bad, though. Each song transports us back to the 90s because it gives off that new age electronic pop music. In the case of "Heartthrob", though, we're stuck in the 90s with no intention of going back. There are a few ballad-esque songs--see: "Deny U" and "Goodbye From Lonely", but the real show-stopper, at least in my opinion, has to be "GUY.exe". The song is about being able to supersize the perfect guy despite everyone saying that finding someone that perfect is impossible.

If you love Pentatonix and are constantly cycling through their albums and EPs, give "Future Friends" a try. Even if you aren't cycling through PTX's music, give "Future Friends" a try. It's a good time in 16 songs.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
