It may be during school time, but these games can create a nice hour or three break.

Five Video Games To Play This Fall

As the summer draws to a close, the fall (and the school year) is quickly approaching. While this is the time of year for class lectures and term projects, it is also the time of the year where the some of the best video games titles launch for players. Maybe it might be a good idea to wait until winter break to play these games (and buy them on Black Friday), but here are a few that will make this a great gaming season:

1. Final Fantasy XV

A game that after many, MANY years will finally be launching at the end of November. In this new adventure of the Final Fantasy series, players will take control of Noctis as he and his friends travel the land to find a crystal that has the power to save his kingdom and combat "The Plague of The Stars". Gameplay footage has already revealed that combat will be more freestyle unlike the past ATB combat format. Gameplay also shows how Noctis will be able to pull off some very awesome summons in battle, allowing players to gain advantages over their enemies. With the game's expansive open world, players will have plenty to keep themselves busy in this new world.

2. Pokémon Sun and Moon

To catch you up on what else has been revealed about this game since E3, very old Pokémon from the first game will now be in this new game's region with different types. Some of these were favorites like Vulpix (now an ice type) and Marowak (now a fire/ghost type). The game will now be doing Island Trials instead of gym battles. These trials will consist of a puzzle, battling a totem Pokémon and then fighting the island's Kahuana. Also, the new big bad team will be Team Skull, who are basically modern day pirates in the Pokémon world. With these new additions to the game, players will be excited to jump into the Alola region.

3. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare

Another game from the famous series will be launching at the very beginning of November. This time, the game will take place in space, the final frontier! This game will have players fight their enemies with space combat, transitioning from running on the ground to some zero-gravity action. I am not usually one to play this games series, but "Infinite Warfare" is changing my mind!

4. Friday the 13th: The Game

A horror game that is appropriately being released in October. This game follows the events of the original film. Here, eight players will play in a session, with one player assuming the role of Jason Vorhees. The other seven players will be camp counselors who are trying to stop him. While a session can end if the person playing Jason can kill all seven characters, the seven players can also work together to kill Jason and end the session as well (although it is Jason, so killing him will not be easy for the seven potential victims). Jason will also be able to teleport anywhere in the environment, forcing other characters to think on their feet. While it lacks a major story mode, players will enjoy the opportunity to be immersed in the creepy camp of Crystal Lake.

5. Titanfall 2

The successor to one of the Xbox One's first major multiplayer games. This game allows players to fight other players and, after getting enough points, can call a Titan (a sort of robo-suit) down to the battlefield. These machines may move slower, but they allow players to dish out more damage. This game will see the inclusion of six new Titans, even one that can shoot fire and another that can wield a sword. Ready to drop some Titan madness onto the battlefield?

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.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
