16 Reactions About Pokemon Go

If you don't know what Pokemon Go is by now, I applaud you from being disconnected from social media. Pokemon Go was released a little more than a week ago, but is now a worldwide phenomenon. People of literally all ages are playing it, including my mother. It's bringing all sorts of people together and getting people to leave their houses and go for walks. And although, yes, people are still on their phones, it's an amazing achievement that a simple gaming app is creating such a positive outlook on exercise in general. Now everyone can be a Pokemon trainer in real life, which is actually a sort of difficult task. It's been a whirlwind of a week with Pokemon Go, but I'm sure everyone can relate if you play.

1. First downloading Pokemon Go, you think you're going to catch a Charizard in the first day.


2. Wasting 10 PokeBalls trying to figure out how to catch your first Pokemon...

Seriously, why can't I capture it!

3. Finally capturing your first Pokemon:


Wow, I bet no one else has a Zubat!

4. Your phone buzzes to tell you a Pokemon's nearby, but it's just another Zubat.


5. When it's 12 a.m., and there's a Charmander outside your house but your parents are strict.


6. Finding a rare Pokemon but it escapes and flees from your PokeBall:


7. Finally being able to evolve your first Eevee:


8. Hatching an egg that required you to walk five kilometers, only for it to be a Weedle:


9. Finally catching some rare Pokemon:


10. Finding a place with at least 100 PokeStops:


Is this what Heaven looks like?

11. Being completely out of PokeBalls and finding a Pokemon you don't have yet:


12. Winning against the first Pokemon in a battle:


13. But then a stronger Pokemon comes to take its place and you have to flee the battle:


14. Getting so into Pokemon Go, that you actually re-watch the original Pokemon on Netflix.

Misty and Ash are the original relationship goals.

15. Getting a group of friends to go Pokemon hunting with you:


16. Being the best Pokemon trainer in your friend group:

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
