Our generations most prized possession is most definitely the cell phone. People live on their phone, some even say, you're psychologically attached to your cell phone. Nowadays, you basically either have an Android or an iPhone. On both of these technologically advanced smart phones, you can download applications, also known as, apps. At the U of A, there are essential apps that I'm sure most students would recommend to make your time easier at this insanely huge school. Here are seven apps that are a major key to U of A student life.


1. Venmo.


Instead of carrying cash with your friends, you can pay your friends with venmo! Venmo transfers money from your bank account into the other persons. I know it sounds utterly sketchy, but I assure you it's totally safe.

2. GroupMe.


To be honest, I'd never even heard of GroupMe until I came to school at the U of A. GroupMe is a crucial key to campus life because a lot of organizations and clubs at the U of A connect through this app. Groups for schoolwork assignments also might use GroupMe to connect, so it's definitely a social and an academic component.

3. Tapingo.


We all know the agony of waiting in a long line for food. Well, with Tapingo, you can order your food ahead of time on this app so, you don't have to wait on any of those lines. Tapingo also delivers from on-campus and off-campus locations. Another neat thing about Tapingo is that you can pay the delivery fee with your meal plan. I mean what U of A student wouldn't love that?


4. Whatsgoodly.


The app with mildly (or not so mildly) sexual questions and greeks basically hating on each other. But it's pretty entertaining when you're bored in that 9 a.m. math class.


5. Your bank app.


No matter which bank you have, Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America etc., you should have your banks app on your phone to keep track of your money. You're going to need to know when the next time to ask mom and dad to put more money in the bank is.

6. Lyft/Uber.


The Lyft and Uber apps are basically the same thing. Both apps are extremely prominent at the U of A. I would recommend having both because sometimes the prices are lower on one over the other.


7. Arizona Mobile.


This is one of the handiest apps if you go to the U of A. You can get to your D2L, UAcess and CatMail all through this app. This app even offers a full campus map, CatTran times and a book of events going on at the school. U of A students, you will definitely get a good use out of this.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
