TO Be The Very Best

Okay! Let’s talk about Pokémon Go! I have dream of something like this app before I knew it was possible to do something like this. I get to catch Pokémon! How cool is that! Now this app is not without faults

There are some features, that the app doesn’t explane. Like the rustling leaves, what are those for? I have found that they are not helpful what so ever! There are the feet next to the icon of the Pokémon. Also can we talk about how there is no totally what so ever! I understand some things are easy to understand, but when capturing Pokémon what does the green and white ring mean, I just don’t understand your worth. I think that the Gps tracking of Pokémon could be better than it is. I think that if they were to keep the feet, then we should know how much distance each foot symbol equates to. I wish that they had put street names on the app, so that if you are someone who get lost easy you could find out where you are! I don’t think anyone should ever go Pokémon hunting alone. I would just be great to have street names! lastly, its sad that you have to pay for things like coins if you want a large amont, but at the same time there are ways that you can earn coin, slowly.

I had to go online to find any information about these things, it sucks, because it would be nice to have all of this information on the app itself.

Now that I have bashed on the app let’s say some nice things about it. I truly enjoy this app. It has gotten a lot of people who would not have normally go outside, to go outside and walk. I also like that when you are trying to hatch an egg you can’t cheat by driving, you have to walk, or bike, or run, It makes you move. I enjoy that you can’t stay home and play this game you have to leave and do things, it is bringing out the kid in everyone. It’s bringing out the kid in me who loved to play in the dirt and collet bugs. I get to do that now, but a much cleaning version! I also enjoy the component of competition the creaters have brought in to the game with battling at gyms and defending them for your chosen team. I have not been able to do any of that yet! But I will. I have sat and watch the gym right behind my house change color three times in under 30 minutes I think this app is breaking wall for the casual gamer industry. With this game you don’t have the barrier of who is a “casual” gamer and who is a “serious” gamer, because we all just want to catch them all and be the very best. It’s also a really good game to introduce to younger kids, you could take them walking and let them try and catch the Pokémon.

I really do love this app and I hope that the hype that is going with it doesn’t fade, and that they continue building on a great thing they have here! It will be a sad day if people stop playing this game!

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
