Ed Sheeran's New Music Is Everything

It's so good!

Ed Sheeran's New Music Is Everything

Like most everybody else, I have been waiting a long while for Ed Sheeran to release new music.

On January first, Ed posted a little teaser video of him holding up a piece of paper saying "New music coming Friday!" Social media soon went crazy.

At exactly midnight Friday morning, Ed dropped not one, but two new singles; "Shape of You" and "Castle on the Hill." Both of which have the same shade of blue as the background, and right after they dropped Ed changed his profile image to the same blue.

Now, let's talk about these two singles, both of which I purchased.

"Shape of You" has a dance-like sound to it with Ed's iconic acoustic guitar sounds. This song is very different from other songs that Ed has released in the past. Personally, I like the song, but I have seen a lot of people saying that they do not like the sound of this song and it makes them miss "the old Ed."

"Castle on the Hill" has a more classic Ed sound, and tells a very vivid story. Almost every single comment I have seen on the YouTube lyric video have been very positive towards this song. I can honestly see this song being a huge summer drive song.

If these two songs suggest anything about how his new album will be, I personally think that it will be the most defining album of his career. Ed has always been an amazing writer, and he has so much natural talent, that he has created a huge following. Teasing his fans like this, only makes us want to buy his music even more.

Hopefully more music will come our ways soon. Until then, if you haven't heard these songs yet, I strongly suggest you check them out.

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.

"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.

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.
