Gamer or Not, You Need These Games On Your Phone

Trying to kill some time? Need some games to play while you are waiting to called into your appointment, waiting for your bus or train stop? You have to be careful while playing a game when waiting for your bus or train stop because if you're too into the game you might miss it haha. Well, here are some games I suggest you download from the App Store if you don't have them already!

Words With Friends

I've been playing Words with Friends for a few years and I'm not embarrassed to admit that I am not as good as I should be by now! My sister introduced my other sister and I to it and we have been hooked since. Words with Friends is also available on Android, Windows Phone, any web browser, and Kindle Fire, so not just iOS. It is a two-player game in which you take turns creating words as pictured above. You can either add friends you know to play with, a random opponent, or do solo play. There is also Words With Friends 2 but I have not played it yet.

Candy Crush Saga

Yes, I'm still playing Candy Crush! I played it a lot when it first came out but I stopped playing for some reason I can't remember. I re-downloaded it a few months ago and have no regrets. It is fun to play when you're bored or waiting like I mentioned earlier. Candy Crush is a single player game where you match three or more of the same colored candies given a certain number of moves to make in each level. Certain levels require you to score an assignment amount of points in a given time, clear jelly, and more. The good thing is that although this game is addictive, you are given a number of lives and if you lost all your times you have to wait a certain amount of time to play again which is good. It's really telling you to stop playing and return to your current life responsibilities which is what we all need. We tend to find ourselves behind a screen for the majority of our day whether it be for our job, school, or just in during our free time.

FriendO

I had no idea about FriendO until my best friend invited me to play. FriendO is an app where you answer questions about yourself various categories the app provides and you send them to your friends. Some of those categories are my sports, celebrities, music, and passport (travel). Your friend then has to guess what your answer is and if they get it correct then they get a point. You do the same and it keeps going. The more friends you invite then the more categories you unlock! It's pretty fun to play because you learn more about your friends. Just a heads up though, you have to be at least 17 years old to download it!

GamePigeon

GamePigeon allows you to play games on iMessage. My favorite games are 8-Ball, Anagrams, and Basketball but there are definitely more to choose from. I was happy to see this was a part of the latest iOS update because it makes texting much more fun. I think this might work on Android as well but don't quote me on this!

I hope you download at least one of these apps!

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
