ProcrAPPstination

ProcrAPPstination

With finals week just around the corner, it’s time to find inventive ways to put off studying. And where else to find distractions than the App Store: no movement required!

We all know about Facebook and Instagram, but sometimes we need a break from the status quo. Check out these hot new apps that are taking our screens by storm:

Candy Crush: Soda Saga

Candy Crush was one hell of an addictive game, but forget about that! Meet Soda Saga, Candy Crush’s hot, updated, younger sister.

With better graphics and more compelling levels, crushing candy has never been better. You know what they say: “Once you go Soda Saga, every else will seem like GaGa.”

Trivia Crack

For those of you that live for random facts (did you know that Cookie Monster’s original name was Sid?), Trivia Crack  is the game for you! Play your friend or randoms, as you spin the category wheel and answer questions that fall under Art, Entertainment, History, Geography, Science and  Sports. The aim of the game is to get more category crowns than your opponent. Crack may be whack, but Trivia Crack  sure isn’t!

Coffee Meets Bagel

Finals got you feeling lonely? Can’t seem to find “the one” on campus? Don’t like the superficiality of Tinder but are too lazy to make a full OKCupid profile? Then Coffee Meets Bagel is the app for you! You make a short, but somewhat insightful, profile (height included!!) and you get one “bagel” (or should I say bae-gel) per day. If they like you too, then HUZZAH you’re connected. You then have seven days to get to know your bagel before the chat room closes.

With the time pressure and the limited number of matches you can have at once, conversations tend to be longer and more productive. No bae, no problem; no bae-gel, yes problem.

Netflix

It’s an app, enough said.

So get downloading, and make your “study breaks” more refreshing! Good luck on finals ;)

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.
