Favorite Broadway Musicals

Give my regards to Broadway...well you should remember the rest if you are a theater junkie like myself. I have been in love with musicals as long as I can remember. Every time you step into the theater it is an escape for the good life to get lost in the music. In my time I have seen a lot of Broadway musicals and here are my top favorites that you should see as well (Some of these may have closed on Broadway but I have to mention them!)

1. Wicked.

What happened before Dorothy dropped in? This is the story about the two witches of Oz and their unlikely friendship and how they defy gravity and have been changed for good. Remember no one mourns the wicked.

2. An American In Paris.

When the war is over an soldier moves to Paris to dream, and he finds a love interest and he dances the night away. This show is an amazing adaptation of the art of dance where the show is told through song and dance.

3. Jersey Boys.


Follow along with the untold story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons where they go through the controversies of love and life on the road with the band that gave us high pitched harmonies and constantly have us saying Oh What a Night!

4. Hamilton.

Lin Manuel Miranda wrote this show about the former president Alexander Hamilton and the person who will kill him someday. Each song is a rap ballad that helps move the story along just like his previous show on Broadway "In the Heights". I suggest you plan your trip in advance to see this show because tickets are being accepted well into 2017.

There are so many shows to see while you go out in the city but these shows that I have mentioned are can't miss in my book. Seeing a show is a privilege in itself.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
