10 Highlights of Taylor Swift's Reputation Stadium Tour
Facebook

n May 8, 2018, Taylor Swift began her fifth major concert tour, the Reputation Stadium Tour, which changed the lives of Swifties worldwide. Everyone wanted to be there, and those who couldn't get tickets flocked to social media sites like Tumblr and Instagram to find videos of the magic Swift was creating in each stadium she performed in.

At the time of writing this, only a few shows have been performed, with dozens left to go. However, each night has received rave reviews from both critics and fans. If you are unable to make it to the tour, or if you plan on attending and want to know what to expect, here are 10 highlights from Taylor Swift's Reputation Stadium Tour.

1. The stage

Look at the fireworks!

The first thing you have to know is, there are three stages. Yes, THREE. The main stage is HUGE, with a video screen that covers the wall AND floor! And the two B-stages are out on the floor, close to the fans. The two smaller stages each featured giant snake as she performed on them, and the snake for the main stage makes an appearance during "Look What You Made Me Do."


2. The setlist

There are old favorites, new hits, and everything in between!


3. The surprise songs

Taylor performing "The Best Day" on the Reputation Stadium Tour

Each show features a different song between "Dancing With Our Hands Tied" and "Blank Space." So far, the surprise songs have been "All Too Well," "Wildest Dreams," "The Best Day," "Red," "Holy Ground," Teardrops on My Guitar," "Our Song," "22," "I Knew You Were Trouble," and " I Don't Want To Live Forever."


4. The mashups

The "Long Live"/"New Years Day" mashup is one of the most emotional moments of the show

Oh my GOD, the mashups are brilliant! They're unexpected, but completely make sense (Like "Bad Blood" and "Should've Said No").


5. The outfits

The "Dress" dress!

Taylor Swift is QUEEN when it comes to stage costumes! The outfits on every tour have been amazing, but this one is definitely the hottest!


6. The talent

There is SO MUCH TALENT on this tour! The dancers are incredible, the set designs are amazing, the costumes are gorgeous, and of course, Taylor herself is completely brilliant.


7. The speeches

Pre-"Delicate" Pride Month-inspired speech at the 2nd Chicago show.

One thing Swifty is known for is the heartfelt speeches she gives between songs on tour, and this one definitely does not disappoint.


8. The opening acts

Charli XCX, Camila Cabello, and Taylor Swift.

This is a serious girl-power tour, and having Charli XCX and Camila Cabello open definitely reinforces that idea!


9. The visuals

Taylor Swift floating to the first B-Stage

They're all incredible, but the on-screen visuals for the poem "Why She Disappeared" and the performance of "Getaway Car" are AMAZING! And the sparkling orb she floated to the other stages on? GORGEOUS!


10. The overwhelming joy of being in a stadium full of other fans celebrating you love for Taylor Swift together

It really, truly is one of the greatest feelings ever.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

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.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
