Whether you're a freshman, sophomore, junior or senior, loads of people are obsessed with the brand new app, Pokémon Go. You'll be the luckiest player for the upcoming fall semester because Rider is a Pokémon hot spot. There are loads of Pokéstops to gather supplies and even a gym to battle other students!

As a fan of Pokémon Go myself, I have decided to prepare all other Pokémon fans for the upcoming fall semester by giving you all of the locations for each Pokéstop and the gym. I mean, who needs to study when there are so many Pokemon to catch?

But if you're looking for something fun to do after class, here is your guide to a successful Pokémon Go adventure at Rider University:

1. Rider Rock

As an incoming freshman, you'll get to know this iconic Rider tradition, but you can get to know it even more if you want to collect some Pokéballs.

2. Chesterwood

This piece of artwork close to the library is not only nice to look at, but a great place to gather supplies! So check it out on your way to study for class!

3. Dirge

Another sculpture on the Rider campus, located by the Sweigert Business building, is a great place to take a break if you're going from building to building -- so why not gather some Razz Berries to help catch those wild Pokémon?

4. Gazebo by Centennial Lake

I don't know about you, but this is a hot spot for a lot of students on campus. It's a great place to sit down and look out onto our beautiful campus lake. Now, it's a Pokéstop!

5. The Yvonne Theater

The creators must have known that so many students on campus have class by the Yvonne Theater. It's the Fine Arts building and luckily (or unluckily, if you have to climb the stairs to the third floor) is where majority of my classes are this Fall. I'm looking forward to this Pokéstop for sure.

6. Delta Phi Epsilon

Going Greek or Pokémon Hunting? I recommend you do both, but if you happen to stumble upon this purple house, it's a Pokéstop! Perhaps you'll catch a rare unicorn Pokémon while you wait.

7. Gill Memorial Chapel

If you're looking to pray for a Gyarados, head on over to the Chapel. It's the last Pokéstop on campus.

8. The Gym


There's really no name for this one, or there could be, but I couldn't figure it out. There is another piece of art on campus that happens to be the gym. It's located near the library and has been taken over by all three teams so far. Who will take over come September fourth and fifth?

I cannot wait to catch 'em all with my fellow Pokemon fans this fall semester!

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.

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
