It just got better... and better!

It's the weekend that everyone has been waiting for. Coachella weekend 2. And it was just as lit as the first weekend, if not better.

On the first day of Coachella weekend 2, high winds left the camping feature unable to be used by attendees until one day after Coachella (Saturday) and the less than disheartened campers started dubbing it Walmartchella (due to having to go to Walmart to buy tents so they wouldn't have to sleep in their cars.)

1. The Weeknd

Weeknd 2 did not disappoint (see what I did there?) The Weeknd put on an incredible show filled with excitement and energy. Fans are dubbing his show during Weekend 2 the best, because you could tell in person that he was having fun and really enjoying himself rather than just putting on a show.


Here is the very beginning of his iconic performance with his recent hit, "Pray for Me" with Kendrick Lamar.

2. Ariana Grande

Ariana Grande came out during Kygo's set to perform her new single for the first time called "No Tears Left to Cry." She posted on her Instagram earlier that day, saying that she would be performing but fans didn't know when.

3. Post Malone

Fun fact: It is so much harder to find Weekend 2 Coachella performances because they were not live-streamed, due to the first weekend being streamed.

One thing that didn't change Weekend 2: Post Malone was still crossfaded. Big Shocker.

4. Chance the Rapper

A big surprise for the audience this year at Chella: the one and only Chance. He performed only for a few moments, but this was enough for the Chance lovers out there to be blessed.

5. Alt - J

This year was the band's first appearance at the famous music festival in Indio, CA. They played their alternative hits ranging from Breezeblocks to Tessellate. There is a good shot that they will be invited back for Coachella 2019 because they brought in such a crowd.


This is a crowd favorite, having been out for a few years.

6. Beyoncé


Oops, she did it again. She brought out Destiny's Child for another reunion to perform one of her most popular songs "Run the World."


Where can I learn to kick like those backup dancers? Asking for a friend

7. Eminem

Eminem closed the house down when he had Bebe Rexha join him for the debut of their song "The Monster." In the video it is clear that it was pure electric when they sang this song in public for the first time.

Eminem brought out Dr. Dre again for his song, "Still Dre." It's hard to follow a night full of Queen B, but Eminem did his best and put on a great show to close out 'Chella 2018.


So there ya have it. A review of the last weekend of Coachella 2018. It's heartbreaking that it's over, but this year proved that Coachella can only go up from here following amazing performances from upcoming artists and the Queen herself.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
