The Ultimate Experience:

Beyonce Formation World Tour 2016

Last night I went to the Beyonce Formation World Tour at the Georgia Dome in Atlanta, Georgia! I could end the article here but I know you are curious on the fun I had. Just a little background information on me, I am a die hard fan of Beyonce, also known as Yonce or Bad Bitch (you would understand if you attended the concert). My obsession starting while I was away at school. I remember starting my freshman year, Fall of 2011, and her 4 album dropped. I loved the entire cd but my love for her came when I started watching her performances on YouTube. As you may not know, I am also obsessed with YouTube. It was a match made in heaven. I could binge watch makeup tutorials and flawless Beyonce concerts and performances.

If you have ever been interested in the cost of a Beyonce concert ticket, let me be the first to tell you it AIN’T CHEAP. Let me clarify. It depends on the type of experience you want. I love Beyonce and will LOVE Beyonce until I die. When I attend a concert, I would like to smell Beyonce’s deodorant and be able to count the crystals on her costumes. Others may just want to be in the same building with her, in which I understand that too. So if you want to be in the same room with her, you can pay about less than two hundred. Do not be shocked by the starting price or just plain cheap. You must realize the ticket cost is paying for more than Beyonce. You are paying for her costumes(They are all designer by the way. Tina Knowles, Beyonce’s mother is no longer sewing costumes in Houston, Texas’s third ward. Givenchy is just one to name.), Blue Ivy’s nanny, the amazing backup dancers, and the crew who assembles the stage. They have to eat too. I was very fortunate enough to have floor seats. I could not taste the Freedom water( You would have had to attend a concert to understand) but I did have great people sitting next to me and my view was nice between the stage and screen. If you wanted to taste the Freedom water and see the Swarovski crystals, then you are automatically in one grand, at minimum, out of money. All of these prices do not include Ticketmaster fees.

Lastly, let me tell you about my experience. I enjoyed myself 110% and beyond. Yesterday, I am writing this the morning after, I was not in the best mood. Yet, I was not about to let a raggedy graduate teacher and ungrateful family members,so called friends, and a pitiful dating life ruin my day. How many people you know can buy BEYONCE tickets within less than twenty hours from the concert? I would agree that it would be few people. She did perform as many songs as I thought she would but the show was still entertaining. It is a once in a lifetime experience. You are definitely paying for an experience. She had an opening act with a few artist by the name of T.I, Young Thug, DJ Khaled, 2 Chainz, Usher, Ludacris, and Jermaine Dupri. She started two hours after the proposed starting time, 7:30 pm, and doors opened two hours before the starting time, 5:30 pm. Do not break your bank trying to see her if you cannot afford it but if you can spare the money, buy the ticket(s). Fan or not.

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.
