Ten Best Totems At Electronic Music Festivals

Electric Forest Media

Admit it, we all love seeing the different totems at festivals. They have the limitless potential to be extremely big, funny, genius, and sometimes even a little inappropriate. People put endless hours of work into creating intricate totems that come in all shapes and sizes. Totems are an instrumental part of the EDM Culture we all know and love. Its sad to say that the summer is almost over which means festival season is swiftly coming to an end. In honor of another whirlwind festival season, we've assembled a list of the best totems this year, from Ultra, to EDC Vegas, right here in NYC at Electric Zoo. Here are the Top Ten Best Totems of Summer 2016.

10. We're Home at EDC Vegas

The new Star Wars movie had everyone running off the the cinema, so it only seems a matter of time before someone will make a totem out of it. Returning to a festival that you’ve already been too is a liberating feeling, this sign says it all.

9. The Steve at EDC Vegas

Your mind can play tricks on you, especially when you’re at a music festival. We are all a fan of Steve Buscemi, so seeing him peeking out above the crowd is a welcome site.

8. F*ck Trump at Ultra Music Festival Miami

May 4th is universally considered Star Wars day - “May the 4th be with you” - this raver used the force in a unique way.

6. Make America Rave Again at Electric Zoo Festival

Another sign that channels this insane election

5. Girlfriend Revenge at Tomorrowland

Couples break up over many different things, this is a new explanation on why this guy is single.

4. I Eat Ass at EZOO

This is sign is self explainable…

3. BRUCE at Electric Forest

We always try to relive our childhood because we just don’t want to adult. This totem will definitely make you smile.

2. Dick Butt at EZOO

This was the most popular dude this labor day weekend

1. That Face at EZOO

When Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps made this grimace that has now gone viral, this totem has been the crown winner of crowd totems.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

11 Ways To Live The Best Life You Can

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

Sam Houston State University

Life is all about twist and turns, sideways and which ways. Nothing is permanent, so we should take risks, and chase our dreams. We are taught at a young age many lessons that will follow us into adulthood. What we aren't taught is how to feel, and how we handle those emotions. We just have to figure them out ourselves, and that's not fun. In my 21 years of living, I have come to know that way too many people can't handle emotions, or the fact that not everyone is dead inside like them. When you're like me, and you have zero control over your emotions, it's hard to feel comfortable around people who aren't so in touch with themselves. As much as I would like to feel nothing at times, I've accepted who I am and the fact that I can cry over practically nothing. So, there are some things in life that you just have to do.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

It would be so much easier to just pay someone to do it for you

1. Figuring out when to start

2. Searching through list after list to get everything you need

3. Shopping for deals

4. Getting bins to put everything in

5. Figuring what you can’t live without

6. Going through clothes to find what you need

7. Finding out your siblings took something from you

8. Fighting with your parents.

9. Trying to plan things with your roommate

10. The fear of forgetting something

11. Move in day

Relatable moments from one of the best shows I have ever watched.

1. When you fail that midterm you studied so hard for.

2. When your crush finally texts back.

3. When payday comes around.

4. When you accidentally like someone's picture from 108 weeks ago.

5. When someone takes your unassigned assigned seat.

6. When your favorite character in your favorite TV series dies.

7. When that guy/girl you’ve been crushing on agrees to go on a date with you.

8. When you have so much to do, and such little motivation to do it.

9. When someone asks for your last fry.

10. When you try a new health-food craze.

11. When you get new clothing.

12. When you check your bank account.

13. When they're serving good food in the dining hall.

14. When someone tries to tell you what to do.

15. Or just your thoughts about life in general.

We all have that "I don't care" attitude.

1. Most students just take life day by day.

2. That means procrastinating, one day at a time.

3. College students don't mind dressing like crap sometimes.

4. In fact, dressing nice feels weird.

5. College students get so stressed that they contemplate dropping on a daily basis.

6. But most find another solution to deal with that stress.

7. And that solution can be pretty cheap. Anything over $5 is expensive.

8. One of the only things college students will spend money on is coffee.

9. College is just really expensive and you never forget how expensive it is.

10. But hey, we're getting a somewhat high-quality education, right?

11. We all really just want to pet dogs all day.

12. And eat pizza for every meal.

13. And stab the next person who asks us what we want to do with our life.

14. However, despite the stress and student loans, college is amazing and there's plenty of reasons to smile.

Thank you, April, for inspiring us with your wicked relatability.

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

1. Wallow.

2. Cry.

3. Get Angry.

4. Tell Someone You Love Them.

5. Forgive.

6. Let go of the negative people in your life.

7. Be yourself.

8. Swallow Your Pride.

9. Stop Freaking Out Over Your Body.

10. Say No.

11. Accept Love.
