5 Reasons Why Pokémon Go Is The Best Game In History
Pokémon

Pokémon Go is an augmented reality GPS based game where you explore the real life world and catch all the original 151 Pokémon. If you haven't heard of this game yet, then you need to crawl from under your rock and download it now. In Huntsville, the two main hubs for Pokémon Go is Big Spring Park and Bridge Street Town Centre. Why should you Download this spectacular game? Well...

1. You will meet lots of different people and create new friendships

The first person I met we were friends in an instant. We both knew we both liked Pokémon and we were both on Team Instinct (GO INSTINCT). When I went to Bridge Street to catch some new Pokémon, I went to Red Robin's for lunch, and the service there is the best it has ever been. Ever since the launch of Pokémon Go, everyone just seems very friendly to each other.

2. You will discover places you have never heard of before

If you have ever been to Big Spring Park in Downtown Huntsville, you have probably heard of "The Flame." I heard of it the moment I returned to Big Spring Park after a few years. When going there again yesterday, I realized that this flame had been on fire every time I visit. Is it really on fire forever?

3. You will lose lots of weight

I have been playing this game every day since its launch a few weeks ago. Since Pokémon Go is a location based game, that means you actually have to go outside and walk around to Catch Em All. With me walking a few miles a day playing Pokémon Go, marching band, and eating much better lately, I have been the happiest with how my body looks in years.

4. Statistically, it has the most downloads

According to MyNintendoNews, Pokémon Go has reached 50 million downloads in record time and now has more than 75 million downloads. That's a lot of players. What's even more astonishing is that the game isn't even out in every country yet!

5. It is just genuinely a good game

Pokémon is just a great franchise and I have been a part of the community since childhood, and now that I can catch Pokémon in the real world, it literally is a dream come true. Every 90s and early 2000 babies are all living the dream of being a Pokémon trainer in this fantastic year of 2016. The great part about it is that the game is only about 10% complete, according to CEO of Niantic, John Hanke. It will take several years for the game to be 100% complete and I hope all of you will enjoy it as much as I do now.

Take it easy, be safe, and have fun!

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
