"You got games on your phone?"

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!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
