Animal Crossing Has Taken Over My Life

Yes, I'll give you 40,000 bells for 5 Tarantulas

All I ask is for my loans to be paid off and for a nice dog.

Just sounds like a regular college student right? No, I'm talking about Animal Crossing where the loans are the loan to my house that has a 0% interest rate and the nice dog is Isabelle, which is also my main for Smash.

I literally messed up my sleep schedule more playing this game than a school break

So technically I did get this game over Spring break and I did play it during Spring break. But (zoom) university is back in session and I went to bed at 6am because I was playing Animal Crossing. That's right, I decided to sleep at 6 IN THE MORNING. I proceeded to wake up at about 10:30am so I could get up in time for classes and group meetings. I just really wanted to make bank on those tarantulas.

Sorry professor

Look, my house doesn't have a good place for me to study so I study and go to classes on my bed. It's my bed so it's comfy. I either fall asleep while taking notes or play Animal Crossing while my professor drones on and on about the same slide for the past two classes. Honestly, it keeps me awake and I still take notes on it just because I'm also alert and not dozing off.

Fishing

To any video game ever, if you have a fishing mini-game, hit me up. Fishing is my passion in video games apparently. But my joycon is the first generation that has the drift so it makes it hard to fish as I can't get the angle exactly perfect. Plus the fish turns around IMMEDIATELY after I drop the perfect cast with a drifting joycon, it's the most aggravating feeling so I would like to have what I am entitled to: that fish.

Nostalgia

I think I was somewhere between 4th-6th grade when I played Animal Crossing on the Nintendo DS. Not only was it a birthday gift from a cousin I didn't see very often, but it was so peaceful. I remember the used version that I got that had Dizzy in it. He was such a great villager and so nice. I want that. I want that carefree happiness again during this pandemic

Tik Tok

I have a Tik Tok. But I only viewed and watched people dance and do some other fun things like make fluffy coffee. I actually made a tik tok. I thought my first tik tok would be a dance video since I used to dance, but no. It's an animal crossing tik tok. Because I love this series and how cute that shit is. And me succumbing to making a tik tok sums up this article pretty nicely

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
