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!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
