Why "The Maine" Is My Absolute Favorite Band

(I want you to listen to this song while you read this so you can get a better understanding of what I'm saying)

Music is more than just someone singing words to a melody, it is more than just lyrics and beats. Music tells stories. Stories of oppression, falling in love, falling out of love, heartbreak, and rising from the ashes like a phoenix.

Music can also bring people together, music can make families just from seeing them at the artists' concerts. My favorite band is called "The Maine". I've been listening to them since I was a sophomore in high school because of one of my best friends Sophie. She had an extra ticket and asked me if I had wanted to go see them with her. I had mentioned that I wanted to find new music to listen to so I said yes.

now just because I’m always at their shows. They always ask how I am and how things are going, I always tell them my favorite part of the show, sometimes even thank them for playing my favorite songs. I even told Jared that the aesthetic for the night looked like a Target-esqe kinda vibe and he was like a little kid in a candy store.

support them the way we do (I FORGOT TO MENTION THAT THEY WENT ON TOUR AND IT WAS FREE TO GET INSIDE). It’s also the fact that some of my best friends are with me because of them and because they feel the way that I feel towards them.

I really genuinely hope that anyone that reads this feels the way that I do when I see The Maine, because it really is the best I’ve ever felt in one moment.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
