Musical Weekends For Your January

In our humble twin cities filled with young people looking for something to do now that football season is in our past, choices look thin. Fear no longer! In the upcoming start to spring 2016, your weekend plans can include an array of musical entertainment.

1. Eli Young Band

January 20th at Hurricane Harry's

The well-established country group, Eli Young Band has made several stops in our town and this one definitely won't disappoint as a way to kick off the semester. It's on a Wednesday night, but what is syllabus week for anyway?

2. The Honeydewdrops

January 23rd at the Grand Stafford

This band is a duo made up of Laura Wortman and Kagey Parrish. This indie folk group just released their album Tangled Country in 2015. Delightful sounds of the mandolin and banjo fill each track.

3. Beautiful Eulogy

Even if rap music is not your cup of tea, this ensemble from Portland, Oregon is for you. The show will certainly be one of the most artistically thoughtful performances this year with creative use of instruments and thought-provoking lyrics.

4. Green River Ordinance

January 27th at Hurricane Harry's

With most of its Spotify listeners coming from nearby Houston, Texas, this is sure to be a great show. Their clearly pop/rock sound and high energy makes for great time every time GRO performs! Not one to miss.

5. Gungor

January 30th at Common Grounds in Waco, TX.

If you are willing to make the drive, Gungor puts on an fantastic show with high energy, a light show, and that intriguing "cool factor." Common Grounds is a venue worth traveling for itself, with its outdoor stage and excellently brewed specialty coffees.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
