Let's Discuss the Lollapalooza 2019 Line-Up

Lollapalooza 2019 will be held once again in the historic Grant Park in Chicago this summer and I already have FOMO.

Let's Discuss the Lollapalooza 2019 Line-Up

Ah, summer music festivals! What a great time!

Two years ago, I attended Lollapalooza in Chicago and it was honestly quite the experience that I want to do again. Since I transferred to a four-year institution, money has been a big reason in which I haven't been able to attend as all my money has been going towards my living expenses.

So let the major FOMO begin as I won't be able to attend this year.

Thankfully, the festival has been doing livestreams of the performances so people can watch the festival in the comfort of their own home to make it feel as if you were actually there seeing it happen.

On March 20th at 6:00 AM PT, the 2019 Lollapalooza lineup came out and if I am being honest the previous lineups from 2017 and 2018 were filled with so many more amazing artists.

But please, let us discuss this year's lineup because Lollapalooza never tends to disappoint us music junkies:

So as we can see, there is a variety of genres being represented in this lineup. That is the beauty of Lollapalooza and similar festivals like that have a little bit of everything to attract all different types of music aficionados. The lineup this year ranges from rock to country, to pop, to alternative, to rap, to Latin, to EDM and then everything in between. It also ranges from extremely popular artists that get a ton of airplay on the radio and who are headlining to artists many of us may have never heard of yet they're lucky enough to be playing a legendary festival such as Lollapalooza.

If I were going this year but it is highly not going to happen this festival season year, I'd prepare every little detail on what I would wear, my makeup, my plans once I get to the festival, and which artists I would have to run a mile from one side of the park to the other.

The artists included in this lineup have been artists who have made memorable musical comebacks such as Ariana Grande, Twenty One Pilots, Bring Me the Horizon and Lil Wayne that we have not seen perform many festivals in a hot second.

Although this lineup does not compare as highly as both 2017 and 2018's lineups as it could have had more relevant artists who are coming out with new music, I am excited to see how it all plays out in the first few days of August! I might not be a professional music journalist who can have a is still an amazing lineup and I would do whatever to be able to go again and see all these great artists under the Chicago skyline this summer.

As college students, we are all familiar with the horror show that is course registration week. Whether you are an incoming freshman or selecting classes for your last semester, I am certain that you can relate to how traumatic this can be.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

Bonus points if it is more than two.

Whether you're commuting or dorming, your first year of college is a huge adjustment. The transition from living with parents to being on my own was an experience I couldn't have even imagined- both a good and a bad thing. Here's a personal archive of a few of the things I learned after going away for the first time.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it. These are eleven thoughts that I have as a writer while writing my stories.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
