"Good Riddance " is a significant cover choice for Woods. Growing up queer in a traditional, Persian household was understandably difficult for her, as she tellsMost notably, a recent loss made Woods grow closer to the Green Day's lyrics."Playing this song and relistening to the lyrics gave me a whole new perspective," she says."I lost my dad recently and this song really made me think about him.
Covering the song helped Woods grieve, but it also reminded her of good times and positive memories."You don't always have the perfect relationship with your parents," Woods says."Always appreciate the little things in life because you never know when they're going to go away." The track was originally penned about a failed relationship by Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong, who has been a lifelong musical hero for Woods."Growing up, Billie Joe Armstrong was one of my musical icons," she says."He was the reason I picked up a guitar. Every song that Green Day released got better and better, and his songwriting was so different to anything else I grew up listening to. I felt like he was always really honest.

Friends Camping Out In Woods Just Happy To Escape The Daily Grind Of Federal PrisonCLEARVILLE, PA—Acknowledging that getting the chance to relax in nature was its own reward, a group of longtime friends camping out in the woods confirmed Wednesday that they were just happy to escape the daily grind of federal prison. “It sounds like the simplest thing in the world, but it’s unbelievably nice to sit by the lake and think your own thoughts for an afternoon without the rigid structure of penitentiary life,” said convict Jesse Howell, who like his friends claimed that sitting against a tree feeling the breeze in his hair was a nice change from the rat race of roll call, meals, and 15 minutes in the yard. “My pals and I have been planning a trip like this for five to seven years, so it’s nice to finally kick back and bask in the beauty of the natural world. Just look at all these stars—you can’t even see them back at The House, what with the light pollution and the 12 inches of reinforced concrete.” Howell added that despite their efforts to stay “off the grid,” their respite would probably only last a few more days before they were called back to address mundane concerns, such as the three guards they murdered while setting out. \n
