Concerts are my happy place.

There's no better feeling than screaming the words to your favorite songs while the artist is singing them right in front of you. Attending a concert is one of my favorite experiences that everyone should have the pleasure of partaking in. It is truly breathtaking to hear the songs you love performed live. Sometimes it feels unreal to see the people that you idolize performing on a stage. I have so many amazing memories from concerts that I frequently look back on and smile.

Arriving to a concert early and waiting in line is an experience in itself. Concerts are an amazing way to meet people who you share similar interests with. To this day, I have an unbreakable bond with a few people that I met years ago at a concert. I've also met some pretty cool bands while waiting in line for concerts. I love the thrill of waiting in line for a concert because you never know what's going to happen or who's going to turn around the corner. The same goes for waiting after a concert. You never know who's going to walk out of those doors.

Concert tickets usually go on sale months or even years before the actual concert but that just gives you something to look forward to and count down the days until. You don't need to spend a fortune on concert tickets to have a good time. From being in the front row at a concert to being in the "nosebleed section", I've experienced both. I can assure you that attending a concert is one of the greatest things you will ever experience, no matter where you're standing for it. Familiarize yourself with smaller artists/bands. Tickets are cheaper and you'll have a good chance of meeting them too. I personally enjoy attending concerts for smaller artists/bands more, if makes the experience more engaging.

If you've never been to a concert, I highly recommended attending one as soon as possible. Results from an Australian study showed that concertgoers are happier with their lives than those who don't attend concerts. The way I feel at every concert I attend is indescribable that makes me yearn for more.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
