5 Tips To Follow Before You Attend Your First Concert
Maggie Kooi

So if you are reading this and haven't been to a concert before, you are in for a real treat. I have been to many concerts and each one has been really special. However, there are some lessons that I have learned from going to them. I hope these lessons help you in going to your first concert!

Here are just a few tips that I have learned from attending concerts:

1. Get to the concert location early:

You will want to have plenty of time to find your seat, buy merchandise, eat a meal, and go to the bathroom. You don't want to be the one walking in the door 5 minutes before the opening act comes on. The lights will be dim or pitch black and you won't be able to see or hear anything at your seat if you decide to wait that long to arrive. Just save yourself the stress and leave your place early.

2. Have your phone charged or have it charging

This may sound silly, but allow me to explain. You will want to have your phone charged or charging on a portable charger when you get to the arena/venue. Trust me, you will want to take lots of great selfies, use your social media, and take some pictures/videos of the concert. Trust me, you will need some battery life at the show.

3. Bring your patience

This pretty much speaks for itself. If you aren't patient it is just going to make your concert experience, not as fun. Also, If you are waiting in a crowded merch line or bathroom line, just be patient. You will get to your seat in plenty of time before the concert starts as long as you follow tip 1.

4. Keep up with your performer on social media

This one may sound a little weird, but if you truly care about the artist you are seeing, you will want to do this. It is a great way to find out what they are up to before the show and will be great entertainment for you as you are waiting in numerous lines before the show starts.

5. Enjoy the concert

Don't focus too much on all the little details when you're at the show. Don't pay attention to what the previous reviews online have said about your performer that evening. Just sit back and relax, you are going to have a really great time!

These are just a few tips I have learned while attending concerts! If you are attending your first concert soon, I hope you have a blast!!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
