Why Trivia Crack Has Taken Over My Life

I am not playing games when I play this game.

Why Trivia Crack Has Taken Over My Life

I am a typical college student who has come to the point in my Christmas Break where I am completely and utterly bored back at home. So during my pointless hours on social media, I started noticing a trend. Many people were tweeting about this thing called "Trivia Crack". So once I figured out it was an app, out of curiosity (and boredom) I decided to download it. This is when everything went south. 

Now I like to think of myself as a fairly nice, easy going person, but in my life time I have been described as "hard-headed" and "competitive" and I know for a fact that I love always being right. I also have a very addictive personality and because of this, Trivia Crack has brought out the worst in me. I would imagine being addicted to actual crack is something like the way I feel towards this game. I'm constantly thinking about my next hit, I mean... turn, and I get a indescribable rush of adrenaline and excitement when I finally get another character crown. This has me starting games with people from High School that I haven't spoken to in years (one actually slid into my Trivia Crack DMs, but that's a whole other story). I also, admittedly, have texted my friends multiple times reminding them, nicely of course, that it is their turn. However, this is not an addiction I plan on recovering from. Yeah, yeah, maybe I can be a little less crazy, but I like to think of this "problem" as a good one to have. 

Unlike actual crack, I'm not losing brain cells or teeth, I am gaining valuable knowledge I can take back to actual trivia nights in college that will help me win a free pitcher of beer or something. Win-win in my book. So if you are a very intense, competitive person like me, maybe let's just take it down a notch. It is still important to do other things than Trivia Crack, like eating or sleeping. 

P.S. I took breaks writing this to play Trivia Crack.

P.P.S. Play me in Trivia Crack.

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.
