I Got Free Tickets To A Concert, And It Ended Up Being One of The Best Nights Of My Life

Amazing is an understatement.

I Got Free Tickets To A Concert, And It Ended Up Being One of The Best Nights Of My Life

A few weeks ago, I received an email from Live Nation titled "Free Jorja Smith Tickets!"

At first, I thought it was a scam so I clicked through it without reading the contents of the email, but later that day, something told me to actually open the email, and when I did, I instantly burst out in tears. The email told me that in exchange for a promotional post, I would receive two tickets to the Jorja Smith & Kali Uchis concert.

Jorja Smith is my idol, so you can imagine how many tears were shed that night.

I spend the latter part of my week daydreaming about the concert (no, really, I would actually dream about it) and wondering what songs she would perform. I wasn't as familiar with all of Kali Uchis' songs, but I was super excited to see her too!

When April 30th came around, I was so excited. Not only did I run through the venue with my friend to get as close to the stage as possible, but I also skipped dinner so that we could get a good spot on the floor, and for those who know me--you know that's a BIG deal.

Jorja came out at 8 p.m. and when I tell you that she was even more beautiful in person, I MEAN IT.

I have never been in the presence of a human THAT BEAUTIFUL in my entire 20 years of life on this earth. I swear, I need that woman's skincare routine because all I can say is wow. Her voice was just as beautiful as she was and I felt tears fill my eyes when she performed all of my favorite songs.

She inspired me with her performance and made me want to embrace all of my talents that much more.

Kali was just as mesmerizing and gave us bad bitch vibes mixed with soft vibratos.

She and Jorja together are a force to be reckoned with, and I am beyond thankful that I got to experience it. Those free tickets not only provided me with a quality performance, but they also gave me one of the best nights of my life

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
