5 iPhone Games That Should Make A Comeback

tecnomundo.net

As someone who constantly procrastinates, I have developed a love for my iPhone more than the average person. That being said, I am constantly downloading new apps to avoid responsibility. Several apps (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) have remained popular throughout the years, but there have been several apps that were huge then eventually disappeared that should have remained popular AF because they were perfect for procrastinators like me.

1. Draw Something

(Released: February 24, 2012)

What wasn't to love about getting to become Picasso for a second and have your friends guess what it was? The best part? You could literally draw anything and it could look nothing like the word you said it was and whoever you were playing would have to spend far too much time trying to figure out what your drawing was. A modern day mobile Pictionary- artsy.

2. DragonVale

(Released: September 14, 2011)

I remember everyone building their dragon farms and showing how cute their baby dragons were. I high key love this because of the low-key maintenance this took. Most of this app was waiting (dragons take specific times to hatch- the cooler the dragon, the longer the wait) It gave you something to look forward to during the day (0/10 wouldn't recommend if you're an impatient person).

3. Candy Crush

(Released: April 12, 2012)

Before you judge me, I've never sent out a mass Candy Crush request to my Facebook friends (just the ones that play Candy Crush). How could you not love this game? It was simple and fun- match candy and rack up points. It was pretty much the easiest way to waste time (all while feeling like you were accomplishing something).

4. Trivia Crack

(Released: October 26, 2013)

I love trivia and am shamelessly good at knowing the oddest facts. This game was/is a mobile trivia night that I can play with anyone anywhere, at any time and I've learned much more trivia through my incorrect answers- did you know that Meg Ryan's name is an anagram for a European country? Germany, to be exact.

5. Words With Friends

(Released: July 2009)

I will admit this game gets a 0/10 for creativity- it's literally online Scrabble. That being said, it was popular with people who enjoy word games (and who would have guessed that an English major would love word games?) Regardless, if you love word games (and wasting time) this was a great way to learn some new words with people all over the world.

I'll shamelessly admit that I still have all of these apps on my phone

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

University of Dayton

2979

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
