I recently went back home to Gibraltar, Mich., for some family Fourth of July festivities, complete with barbecued bratwurst and fireworks. This was a gathering I’d been looking forward to for a while because while the town is small, the fireworks display is actually pretty decent and my family and I can watch them from our front porch.

W hen meeting new people, as soon as they find out that you’re a student they have one question: What do you study? I myself am guilty of asking that question. When I answer it, however, it prompts another set of questions — “But, why? What are you going to do with that degree? Are you going to go to grad school? Oh, so do you want to teach?”

Sports are traditionally defined as activities where opponents challenge each other in physical prowess. Such a strict definition, however, is being unraveled by the “nerdy” antithesis of “jock” sports — video games, where a very different kind of prowess is required.

I love being a reporter. I know that is an odd way to start a column, but hold on for a second. As a reporter, I get to practice a right I believe is one of the most important of all — the right to information.

T he odds of coming to Michigan State with a set of divorced parents are 50-50. An even split, right down the middle. I had simply lived under the assumption that they would always be in my favor.

Living in Holden Hall freshman year, I ate three meals a day, spent time with my roommate in our little, square-shaped home and endured many nights drowning in a pool of my own sweat because there was no air conditioner.

T?his might be a bit biased coming from me ?— I love my minimum wage job. When I’m not fighting crime, watching and reading “Game of Thrones” or editing at The State News, I work as a sandwich artist at a Jimmy John’s back home. I spend four days a week slapping mayonnaise and tomatoes onto freshly-baked bread, and slamming out sammies.

The other day while in the car with a group of friends, I got into a conversation about why it was hard for domestic and international students to integrate on campus. So many of us are a part of organizations dedicated toward making MSU’s already diverse campus more incorporated. As we were trying to define the causes of why the students aren’t able to approach one another, some of the statements that people made ended up coming out a bit offensive.

A merica, we are missing out. Right now, one of the largest sporting events in the world is happening in Brazil. Thirty-two countries, including ours, have sent a team of their best soccer players to play in one country.

My assistant coach lent me the book "The Fault in Our Stars" last week. I read it in less than a day, shut the book, cried about one page in particular, bookmarked several thought-provoking pages, and blew up everyone’s Twitter feed with #TFIOS quotes.

I have a strategy when it comes to the game “Never Have I Ever.” For people unfamiliar with the game, it involves friends, or people trying to get to know each other, who gather in a circle and hold up ten fingers. Each person says something they haven’t done, and the people who have done that act put a finger down.
