WARNING: Multiple fan girl moments ahead.

If someone were to ask me what my favorite band is, I would not hesitate in saying, "A Great Big World!" You might know them from their hit songs "Say Something" or "Hold Each Other", or maybe you have never heard of them. That is why I am here today. I am bound and determined to make this band known to the world.

I was fortunate enough to FINALLY see this duo this summer at the Minnesota State Fair. They were everything I had dreamed of and more. That was by far my favorite concert I have ever seen, and I have a feeling it will be hard to beat.

The duo, A Great Big World, includes Ian Axel and Chad King. The two met at New York University while both working towards a degree in music business.Their break-through moment was when one of their first songs, "This Is The New Year", was featured on Glee.

Since then, their songs have been featured on numerous shows, including one of my favorites, So You Think You Can Dance. The beautiful number, choreographed by Stacey Tookey, set to the song "Say Something", was what hooked me on this band.

To honor this band, their beautiful music, and the fact that not enough people know about them, I have put together a list of my favorite lyrics from their songs. I hope to get at least one person interested in this up and coming group.

Click on each title to view a video of the song. Enjoy!

1. Rockstar


2. Already Home

3. I Really Want It


4. Everyone Is Gay



5. Cheer Up!



6. All I Want Is Love



7. Hold Each Other



8. Won't Stop Running



9. The Future's Right In Front of Me

10. Where Does The Time Go

Thank you, A Great Big World, for bringing your music to the world and for being a guiding light for me over the last few years.Through good times and bad, your songs have brought hope and joy to my life. You guys rock. I can't wait to see what else you do in the future!

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.

It's easier than you think.

"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. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
