Animal Crossing Has Taken Over My Life

All I ask is for my loans to be paid off and for a nice dog.

Just sounds like a regular college student right? No, I'm talking about Animal Crossing where the loans are the loan to my house that has a 0% interest rate and the nice dog is Isabelle, which is also my main for Smash.

I literally messed up my sleep schedule more playing this game than a school break

So technically I did get this game over Spring break and I did play it during Spring break. But (zoom) university is back in session and I went to bed at 6am because I was playing Animal Crossing. That's right, I decided to sleep at 6 IN THE MORNING. I proceeded to wake up at about 10:30am so I could get up in time for classes and group meetings. I just really wanted to make bank on those tarantulas.

Sorry professor

Look, my house doesn't have a good place for me to study so I study and go to classes on my bed. It's my bed so it's comfy. I either fall asleep while taking notes or play Animal Crossing while my professor drones on and on about the same slide for the past two classes. Honestly, it keeps me awake and I still take notes on it just because I'm also alert and not dozing off.

Fishing

To any video game ever, if you have a fishing mini-game, hit me up. Fishing is my passion in video games apparently. But my joycon is the first generation that has the drift so it makes it hard to fish as I can't get the angle exactly perfect. Plus the fish turns around IMMEDIATELY after I drop the perfect cast with a drifting joycon, it's the most aggravating feeling so I would like to have what I am entitled to: that fish.

Nostalgia

I think I was somewhere between 4th-6th grade when I played Animal Crossing on the Nintendo DS. Not only was it a birthday gift from a cousin I didn't see very often, but it was so peaceful. I remember the used version that I got that had Dizzy in it. He was such a great villager and so nice. I want that. I want that carefree happiness again during this pandemic

Tik Tok

I have a Tik Tok. But I only viewed and watched people dance and do some other fun things like make fluffy coffee. I actually made a tik tok. I thought my first tik tok would be a dance video since I used to dance, but no. It's an animal crossing tik tok. Because I love this series and how cute that shit is. And me succumbing to making a tik tok sums up this article pretty nicely

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?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

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!)
