How To: Make Your Own Rave Palace
Forrest Wilms

You live for the rave lifestyle and the atmosphere that comes along with festivals. The only thing that is missing is closest to you, your room. Creating a wonderful bedroom is not only very fun, but can be the life of the house party when having friends over to kick back.

Painting your room is one of the most important parts. This is where your creativity comes in to play as your decisions here set the atmosphere and mood. You can choose your favorite colors, but make sure they are bright and vivid for extra appeal! When I was younger I splatter painted one wall of my room and it was entertaining making it as well as made it my own creation. Have fun with this!

The next step is decorating. Posters of your favorite artists, activities, quotes, or just interesting stuff in general add a very personalized look. A few smaller items include lava lamps, chargeable glow sticks, and dancing lazer lights (which are my favorite). These can be found at Spencer’s and even your local Goodwill is going to have some hidden gems.

Personally, my rave room was in my P.O.S dorm sophomore year. I made the best of it (picture above) with blacklight posters, regular posters covering every inch of wall space, and flags from my favorite states and countries. The best part about creating a rave room is that it is your room and showing it off to people fulfilling when they say, “this is so bad ass”.

For additional fun I created a custom beer pong table that had led lights fastened around the side so it provided an awesome effect to the whole room. One of the most important parts is a stereo system. Lower priced stereo systems are going to be speakers that bottom line will provide an audio or blue tooth plug in so you can hear the music. Each level above will be louder, heavier, and bassier for bassheads that love the mind melting drops. I got my hands on a sony speaker with two subs, two kickers, and a mixing deck so I was DJ ready to go.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
