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!

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.

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.

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.
