3 Nerdy Games to Add to Your Game Night

In This Article:

Free time is amazing but being stuck in your dorm maybe boring every time. Grab some friends and try these nerdy, fun-filled games. With some even being long-lasting, these games can make the time go by fast while waiting on the line in your favorite cafe or before you have to go to your next class.

1. Card games like Magic: The Gathering

Magic: The Gathering and other card games can get pricing but it is good to learn on a starting deck. Cards can be bought pretty much anywhere like Walmart, Target, and local card shops. Other Magic players may also sell cards too. I learned through other players but the rules are most likely online too.

2. Tabletop Games like Dungeons and Dragons/Pathfinders

Dungeons and Dragons has been around since the late 70s and loved by many nerds, young and old. The easiest and most accessible version is 5e. This is the version played by most now. Ways to be able to learn are easy to access. There is a channel on YouTube called Critical Role which plays and post sessions every Thursday plus websites like DnD Beyond. Books are kinda expensive but .pdf files of them can be found online.

3. Board games like Munchkin

Munchkin is a board/card game that has you face monsters to go up in level. You even get bonuses and such with the cards you have. The game can be bought at most places with the board games. They are also online.

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.

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.
