That Feeling You Get After A Good Concert
Maryn Tanksley

There’s nothing like the feeling you have leading up to a concert. You’ve been saving your money just to buy a ticket with your friends to see your favorite band or artist. You pick out an outfit, arrange your rides, take pictures and the whole time you’ve got what feels like butterflies. You have been looking forward to this all month, and it’s finally here. You’re about to be in front of your idol, they are going to be in the same building as you. Someone you watch on TV and listen to in your car is now in the same vicinity as you. It’s hard to grasp.

Whether you just heard of the band or have been listening to them your whole life you get this natural high off the energy that surrounds you at a concert. The people around you share the same excitement as you, it’s almost like you can connect with anyone there. The moment before they come on stage, as you look at your best friends, your stomach is in knots. Here they come.

Now you're dancing, singing, sweating and loving every minute of it. It’s like a dream come true. It’s not just about the music anymore but also the entertainment that comes from the performance. It’s as if they are speaking directly to you when they say,” How ya doin', Atlanta?” It’s something you can’t really describe. Everyone puts off this vibe, and you're waving your arms in the air with strangers that you feel like you know.

It makes you happy. At this moment you are happy because happy people listen to music and happy people go to concerts. It’s a fact. There are specific songs that speak to you and you get lost in the moment. You’re making memories.

The concert is over, and you’ve listened to this band all month in preparation for this concert, and your whole drive back you’re still listening. Its a feeling that takes over your whole body. You leave the concert smiling and jumping around with your friends talking about your favorite part, but really the whole night was your favorite part. Music makes you happy and the feeling you get from going to a concert is something everyone should experience.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
