"Pokémon Go" is the new craze taking over peoples lives. Here some signs it might being doing the same to you; and if you haven't started playing Pokémon Go yet, I suggest you do so soon.

1. When you go to hard.

I mean when theres a Pikachu on the line you gotta do what you gotta do!


2. You walk into the most random places.

Well theres a Pokémon in that persons house and I really shouldn't go in there but...

3. You drive around with your phone out the window trying to catch them all!

But seriously don't play Pokémon Go while you are driving! but if you are in the passenger seat catch the ALL!

4. You run around like a crazy person from place to place!

Well I'm sitting at dinner and there is defiantly a Pokémon across the street... I'm sure they won't notice if I just slip out really quick.

5. You scream at your phone when you can’t catch the Pokémon!

Yep people are defiantly going to question your sanity, but everyones doing it so it's basically a new social norm.

6. When you can tell who the other "Pokémon Go" trainers are.

When you see them you then continue to scream across the street.. "Any over there" or "Pokémon Go?"

7. You delete everything, even Facebook, to make room for the App.

Sometimes you gotta make sacrifices to be the best Trainer out there, yes even twitter and Instagram might have to go as well.

8. You yell at your friends to slow down because you are trying to catch a Pokémon.

The app should really come with Warning: friends beware of other friends constantly stopping to catch a Pokémon! If they are your real friend they will be playing it as well, because everyone is doing it.

9. When you get the notification the Pokémon is down the creepy alley.

Don't go anywhere by yourself, use the buddy system when playing....unless its a Gym then you take down your all of your friends! Team BLUE or RED?!? Definitely not team Yellow.

10. When you end up in jail because you just wanted to catch them all.

Well I hope not! Lets just hope the only thing being caught is the Pokémon, and taking over gyms!

Now, Pokémon Go is a super fun game, but make sure you are playing smart and safe! Always pay attention and don't do anything stupid :)

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
