My 5 Favorite Games

Pexels-Marcin Milewski

I have been playing video games for some time now on a continuous basis. When I was very little I remember playing my first game, Spyro, with my sister using her PlayStation and consuming peach ring candies as I learned every move. After those days, I went back to gaming on and off whether through my original Xbox or Wii console. After graduating from high school I gave up my Wii console in a garage sale but desperately knew I both wanted and needed to play video games.

I begged my dad to help me purchase a used Xbox 360 and my determination led to my deep love of gaming today. It has been about 3 years since the used console arrived at my house and I have traded up to a Xbox one via a Christmas gift from my dad. I have played some games and returned them in order to find one that suited my interests. I have found some of my most favorite achievements in these games and want to share some titles with you. For a very picky gamer, these games are being put on a special list and so I hope you play them too!

1.Tomb Raider (2013): Rated M, Crystal Dynamics & Square Enix, on multiple platforms

2.Dishonored (2012): Rated M, Arkane Studios & Bethesda, on multiple platforms

3.Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor (2014): Rated M, Monolith Productions, on multiple platforms

4.Fallout 4 (2015): Rated M, Bethesda Softworks, on multiple platforms

5.Rise of the Tomb Raider (2015): Rated M, Crystal Dynamics & Eidos Montreal, on multiple platforms

I hope you enjoy any of these games you or someone you know plays! I have loved gaming on and off for most of my life and am glad to be back in the swing of things. There are many games coming in the future that will just as exciting if not more than these! Including sequels to some mentioned above! Happy summer and happy gaming guys ;)

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
