7 Great Party Games
abcparish.blogspot.com

One thing I always love about parties are the crazy games that happen, and sometimes get way out of hand. While there are many types of games played, here are the top games I love to play with my friends.

1. Clue: The Classic Mystery Game

A classic game about solving a murder, hat could be better than that! Clue is a fairly old game in this line-up, but it is a classic for a reason. This game is always fun to play, and if you are having a Sherlock themed party, this game is definitely a must have at the party.

2. Trivial Pursuit

For all of the know-it-alls, this game is the best game ever. There are many different versions, which means there is a version out there for everyone to enjoy, my personal favorite has to be the Marvel Cinematic Universe edition. This game is another classic on this list of games.

3. Jenga

Jenga is one of the most nerve-wracking games ever to play with any aspiring engineers, but is always fun to play with a group of friends. Jenga, big or small, is a fun game of luck and balancing skills all meshed into one game of stacking block on top of each other. Adding the element of truth or dare to the game is also a new way to keep the game interesting, and a must to try at least once.

4. Apples To Apples

Apples To Apples is a card game where one person is a judge who decides which card is the best for a green card containing an adjective. The game can be played seriously or extremely sarcastically, and is never boring. This game is a very family-friendly type game, and I would recommend this at almost any party to get things started, because chaos can ensue from playing.

5. Cards Against Humanity

A extremely grown-up version of Apples To Apples, I do not recommend playing this with your mom or dad. With that said, it is one of the funniest games to play at a party, ever. With vulgar, and downright offending cards, a group of strangers can get to know who they are playing with quite quickly with this card game. This game is hilarious, and definitely worth a try.

6. Pictionary

A game for all ages, and especially for the artists. No one can really go wrong with playing Pictionary at a party, even if you are a bad artist, because that adds the element of hilarity to the game. This game can be played with children, or become very adult quickly, and is flexible to fit at any party, maybe is just to plan a party around the game itself.

7. The Song Game

A game kind of made up by a close friend of mine, and based on the Sing-Off from "Pitch Perfect", this is the kind of game meant for music lovers and up and coming singers. The game is played by drawing either from a bag filled with artist or a bag filled with words, depending on how you ant to play, and the person who drew from the bag must sing a song that is either by the artist they drew, or contains the word they picked in the lyrics. To make it tougher, you can draw both the artist and word. This game can go on for hours, and can go back and forth, but is extreme fun for the performer in you.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
