Zack And Cody...The Video Game?

Too many of us have forgotten this gem. It is about time we were reminded.

Zack And Cody...The Video Game?

Okay, listen up.

I know that it is very easy to keep getting swept up into the hype that comes along with game releases for new platforms (don't you even dare mention Animal Crossing coming to iPhone because I cannot wait any longer), but with this excitement, we are slowly forgetting about the height of games' past. Along with that past comes the one that reigns high above all: Zack and Cody's Pizza Party Pickup.

I am offended by my own memory that I forgot this game existed. Thanks to my wonderful roommate, this delicacy was placed back into my everyday routine and my life will not ever be the same.

It has come to my attention that while studying my late nights away in Marston Science Library- and by studying I mean playing Zack and Cody's Pizza Party Pickup- that some of you may have never played this game nor have you heard of it.

Truthfully, this is unacceptable, so allow me to culture you.

I can recall many an afternoon of my elementary school life spent staring at this screen before falling into the pizza-filled abyss for hours on end. The game is simple: you pick one of four characters (Zack, Cody, Maddie or London) and you have to collect tickets on each floor of the hotel, along with slices of pizza and other snacks and goodies to throw the best pizza party ever! The catch? Don't get caught by Mr. Moseby or Carey, the twins' mother.

You utilize the hallways to sneak past the other characters and to also retrieve extra items for the party. It looks fairly simple in the photo above, but I can assure you that by level five (the level that this 19-year old college student cannot even defeat) you'll be screaming at your laptop with more angst than you could imagine.

The fact of the matter is, no matter how hard you try I can assure you that you'll end up in defeat by level eight and they will always tell you that your pizza party was only "ok!" Accept your losses now and remember that Zack and Cody's Pizza Party Pickup isn't about the destination, it is about the journey.

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.
