Why 'Trivia Crack' Changed My Life

Are you unreasonably competitive in nature? Do you sometimes wish you were smarter than you actually were? Have you ever experienced the glory of winning a competition? Well, do I have news for you!

Trivia Crack will change your life.

It is three weeks into spring semester. I'm honestly starting to realize that maybe I should have only taken 13 hours, or maybe just drop out of American Government for the second time. Pulling out my phone, I'm immediately happy to see countless notifications from the game "Trivia Crack."

Trivia Crack is a game that leans on the idea of one vs. one "competitive pop quizzes" from traditional topics, including history, sports, art, entertainment, science, and geography, all of which I have problems with in school. Well, except entertainment—turns out, I watch a lot more TV than I thought.

By the end of last week, I completely agree with the addictive oriented title of the game. Crack[ed out on Trivia Crack] is probably the best way to describe my experience.

I have begun to change the way I argue because of this game. "Bro, who get's the last beer in the fridge?" they'll say. With firm eye contact, I can now reply, "Play me for it." Not only will a battle of wits and quick-fire intelligence occur, but every time I play the game, I learn something new. I'm starting to see the world in a new way. Political disputes? Trivia Crack. WWIII breaks out? International Trivia Crack competition.

Obviously, this is satire, but only up to an extent. It seriously does blow my mind that this app has a population that hates learning, taking tests, and lending any form of concentration constantly doing exactly that. Earlier I joked, "Are you unreasonably competitive in nature?" I believe that the head-to-head competition is what has made this game so much fun. That is why we probably should have some form of active competition in the classroom.

All in all, download this game and play me. Bring it.

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.
