iOS 10 Update Brings Games Straight To Messages
ytimg

iPhone users! Have you updated your phones in the past month or so? If not, I highly recommend you do so because it comes with some cool new features. For those who already do have it, I'm going to change your lives with a new feature that most people don't even notice.

When you open your iMessage App, there is this arrow pointing to the right where you normally type a text message. Click on that icon and it will open up three more icons. Out of those three icons there is one that looks like the letter A. Once you click on that, it shows you more icons to click on:

Store, Recents, #images, Music, and GamePigeon.

If you're one for playing game apps on your phone, you'll come to love GamePigeon. It's practically become the new way to text your friends! If you click on GamePigeon, it will tell you to download it and everything goes through the App Store from there. It's totally free too!

You'll have a plethora of games to choose from. There are:

8-Ball, Poker, Sea Battle, Anagrams, Checkers, Knockout, Four In A Row, Dots and Boxes, 20 Questions, and Gomoku.

Click on a game and get started, adjusting the settings to your preferred board game length, etc. It then sends to the person once you've made your play and you continue to go back and forth. They are constantly updating GamePigeon, so expect more games coming soon!

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
