I Saw Lady Gaga in Concert

I am a changed woman.

I Saw Lady Gaga in Concert

I had the opportunity to see amazing queen, Lady Gaga, in concert in Omaha, Nebraska a couple weeks ago. Before this concert, I had never been to a pop concert before. We had seats in the 200 section, close to the main stage.

The first thing I noticed was that she had multiple stages throughout the general admission section. She had two circle stages and another stage that was covered in the back. We couldn't tell at the time how she'd get from stage to stage.

After we got in our seats, we ended up having to wait an hour and a half past the scheduled start time for the show to actually start. During this wait there were no updates, so I still don't know what caused the delay. I'm glad I waited because it was definitely worth it.

Lady Gaga started the set with "Diamond Heart," off of her new album "Joanne." She had a wardrobe change every five songs, during which her band would play and a video would play on the main screen. During the concert, bridges were lowered from the ceiling that allowed her to walk from stage to stage. Throughout the show, Gaga displayed her talents not only with singing and dancing, but also with playing keytar, electric and acoustic guitar, and a grand piano that had light up strings.

Before every few songs, she would take the time to talk to the audience, telling us the story behind the song, which was usually very personal. It was cool that she was so genuine with her fans and opened up about her album.

She played all of the hits, including "Poker Face," "Bad Romance," and "Just Dance." I was a little disappointed she only played a part of "You and I," since Nebraska is mentioned in the song, and that's probably the biggest thing to happen for my home state in my lifetime. She ended on "Million Reasons," which was beautiful and emotional.

Overall, I give Lady Gaga's performance a 10/10, even with her being late. Her voice never ceases to amaze me; she honestly sounded better than on the records. She brings an amazing energy and presence to the stage, and I would recommend her show to anyone.

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.
