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.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
