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

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

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
