16 Things Only A True Gamer Understands

All gamers, no matter what type of console, knows exactly how it feels when these situations come up. We all may fight about what system is better, but at the end of the day we all share the same experiences when it comes to just playing the games. So let's see who the real gamers are:

1. When you're in an online lobby and someones internet goes out.

2. When you lag out of nowhere but your internet connection is fine.

3. When you're about to save your progress in the game and it freezes.

4. That moment when you are waiting for a new game to download and it finally does, so you go and load it up and it has in-game downloads too.

5. That messed up moment when your friends won't play with you because you don't have the new DLC or they tease you about not having it.

6. When you know dang well you shot first but somehow you're the one lying on the ground dead.

7. That sick moment when you're just doing your own thing, not messing with anyone, and some random player comes up and kills you out of nowhere.

8. When the people you're doing a mission with suck so you have to keep retrying.

9. That miserable moment when you haven't played in a few days so your first couple of games are atrocious.

10. When you didn't play that one game for a couple of days so when you go back to it you forgot all the moves and there are no tutorials after the first time.

11. That most epic of feelings when you get all of your perks back to back.

12. That God-like moment when not only are you on the top of the leader board but you also get final kill cam.

13. That jerk-off moment when a teammate steals your kill and you don't even get the assist.

14. That gangster moment when you're last alive in the final round, the enemy team still has a few players and you clutch the match.

15. When you go super ninja status hiding, in plain sight, but the enemy keeps walking by you so you sneak up behind them and knife them.

16. Camping.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
