Catan the Board Game Will Have You Hating Your Friends

Courtesy: Flickr Released in 1996, 23 years ago this game will still have you hating your friends. Okay, not actually hating but the competitiveness and need to prove your power is present, as always. Catan the board game. You can play with up to 10 of your friends. The goal of the game is to lay out settlements on the board near as many of different resources as possible. When the die are rolled the resource with that number can be taken, but only if you have a settlement on it. You must get to 10 points worth of settlements to win the game. There’s extra cards in the game called development cards which reveal different tricks that can put you ahead of the pack. Warning! This game can take over an hour to play, but is completely worth it. As you watch other players build and collect resources you get more competitive. The game always stays pretty close in score, so you always feel like you could have a chance to win. There's actually a whole Twitter page dedicated to f...

Week 10 Blog Post

My three goals on my first blog post were 1. I want to commit time to the Commuter. I really hope to get published in the Commuter many times this term and write great stories for them to have. 2. I would like to improve my story writing and how in-depth I work on the stories I write. 3. My interview process as well, I've done many interviews but there's always room for improvement especially with the questions and content I retrieve. My first goal really turned around. Not only did I write stories for the Commuter, I became a photo editor, and I'm really glad I did. I think throughout this term I did improve my writing. I wrote a variety of different feature stories I'd never done before. In the past I only wrote news reporting stories, then this term I got to write columns and reviews, which I'd never done before. On the last goal, I'd say I improved some, probably not as much as I would've liked.

"Wasteland, Baby!" Review

After five long years of waiting for something new from the “Take Me to Church” star, Hozier 's new album “Wasteland, Baby!” delivered. An intricate selection of sounds has the listener wanting more. The album contains songs from the previously released EP “Nina Cried Power” and much more. His angelic voice makes this over an hour-long album an easy listen all the way through. His soft tones in songs “As it was” and “Wasteland, Baby!” contrast well with the more upbeat pop melodies of “Shrike” and “Nina Cried Power,” which includes artist Mavis Staples. “‘Wasteland, Baby!’ is relatively free of the too-high expectations that tend to plague young artist’s anticipated second albums,” said Rolling Stone reviewer Jonathan Bernstein. On his first album the focus was centered around what was happening in the world at the time. Like hit song “Take Me to Church” as a focus on the LGBTQ+ community. But as for this album Hozier had a new goal, love. “There's no plan, there's no r...
