3 Nerdy Games to Add to Your Game Night

Free time is amazing but being stuck in your dorm maybe boring every time. Grab some friends and try these nerdy, fun-filled games. With some even being long-lasting, these games can make the time go by fast while waiting on the line in your favorite cafe or before you have to go to your next class.

1. Card games like Magic: The Gathering

Magic: The Gathering and other card games can get pricing but it is good to learn on a starting deck. Cards can be bought pretty much anywhere like Walmart, Target, and local card shops. Other Magic players may also sell cards too. I learned through other players but the rules are most likely online too.

2. Tabletop Games like Dungeons and Dragons/Pathfinders

Dungeons and Dragons has been around since the late 70s and loved by many nerds, young and old. The easiest and most accessible version is 5e. This is the version played by most now. Ways to be able to learn are easy to access. There is a channel on YouTube called Critical Role which plays and post sessions every Thursday plus websites like DnD Beyond. Books are kinda expensive but .pdf files of them can be found online.

3. Board games like Munchkin

Munchkin is a board/card game that has you face monsters to go up in level. You even get bonuses and such with the cards you have. The game can be bought at most places with the board games. They are also online.

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.
