The Best App Of 2016

And it involves cats.

The Best App Of 2016

There are always new game apps that people get addicted too. Remember Candy Crush? How about Temple Run? Maybe even 2048? But there's a new app that's different than any app before. It has no goal or purpose, but you'll love it anyway. This new app is called Neko Atsume, and it's taking over.

The "game" starts with an empty yard. You can buy different toys to attract cats to your yard. There are normal toys, like a scratching post and yarn, as well as unique toys like a hammock or cardboard box. The game gives you a free, unlimited amount of food to leave out, but you can buy fancier food if you want to treat them.

In the shop, you can buy different toys and snacks for your cats. You pay for these with fish that the cats leave for you (almost like a thank you for the toys and food you leave them). Each toy and special food will bring different cats who leave different amounts of fish for you.

The more fish you have, the bigger you can make your yard. It can expand all the way into the house which means you have more room for toys and treats!

When a new cat comes, you can take a photo of them and add it to their album. This helps you keep track of which cats have come and how many you have.

It may seem like a silly app, but the cats are so cute you can't help but check and see what they're doing as much as you can. They become almost like your own real pets, and you want to play with them as much as you can.

Some of the cats will come and play with all of your toys daily, while some are a bit more rare. For example, Joe DiMeowgio will only come if you leave out a toy baseball. Señor Don Gato will only come if you buy a Mister Mouse. But all of them are so cute and you'll want to collect every cat possible.

Except maybe Tubbs. He's absolutely adorable and reminds me of what you look like after eat a Chipotle burrito. However, he can be slightly annoying when you spend all your money on expensive food, and you look back seeing him laying there with all the food gone.

If this doesn't seem like something people are actually addicted to, you're wrong. People are going crazy over this adorable game. People have made things from cups to stuffed animals inspired by this game.

It's a simple and stressless game that anyone can play. And who doesn't love cute animated cats? If you still have doubts, download it anyway. It's available in the App Store for iPhones, iPods, and iPads as well as the Google Play store for Androids.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
