App Addiction: Minecraft

Hey Chicas! About a week ago, I downloaded the free Minecraft app for my iPod Touch. Within the hour, I was hooked. It's such a fun game!

You can play Minecraft in two ways, Creative or Survival mode. I really only play Minecraft in Creative Mode, because you can't really die in that version. Once, when I tried survival mode, all these stupid sheep were bouncing around. You're supposed to kill them or something, but I was like hahahahaNO. Then I built a house because at night all these creatures come out and kill you or something. I was in my little bunker when it got super dark outside. I stood there listening, when I heard growling noises. I literally shrieked and quit the game. Therefore, I prefer Creative Mode.

In Creative Mode, you have lots of creative ability. You can choose from all these blocks in your inventory to build stuff with. You can dig, climb, jump, even fly (but I haven't figured that one out yet). You start or spawn in this random world. It can be filled with everything, from flowers to mountains to oceans. You basically build whatever you want! I normally tunnel through the mountains to make quicker routes everywhere.

I also like building houses and towers. Today, I actually built this ridiculously big house with all these different levels built on top of a mountain. It had lots of rooms and balconies and tunnels and stuff. I build most of my houses out of red brick, but today I built it out of this grey stone. I actually just figured out how to use torches. I used to just hold them and be like, " TORCH!! WHY U NO WORK?" No joke. Oh, and another thing. I HATE BEING UNDERWATER. Sososososososososososo much!!!!! I always get stuck and just die.

One problem with this game that I have is that it doesn't save. If I exit the app or get a Facebook notification or something, it deletes everthing. If you know how to fix this, tell me please! It also might be the fact that I'm on the free version. I dont feel like spending 7 bucks to play a game I'll probably only love until the next awesome app comes out. If it's totally worth it, maybe I'll get it.

Tell me what you think about Minecraft! I want to hear your opinions! Also, let me know of anyother awesome apps you love, so I can check them out. Love you! :)

Keep Calm and.... What?

It's INSANE the amount of these signs I've been seeing around lately. My friend had one on Facebook that said Keep calm and Love One Direction ( who doesn't these days?), I found one that said Keep Calm and Fake a British Accent. They're literally EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!

Where did this insane saying come from, you ask? Well, it was first used as propoganda by England during WWII. It was used to keep citzens calm and collected. In 2000, someone discovered a copy of one in a bookstore in Northumberland (in NE England). It was quickly printed on everything from welcome mats to mugs, and have been very popluar since 2012 started.

This new found "trend"  is spriraling upward, so I thought I'd share some of my favorite Keep Calm and... quotes. Here are a few of my faves.

Who doesn't LOVE a good cupcake?

This is something only a true Gleek could say.

I love this one. it's so silly and hilarious *whips hair back and forth*



The Hunger Games is literally the BEST movie I have ever seen.... and I've seen a lot. This is a term that Effie trinket, a bizzare being from The Capitol, uses many times in the book and movie.

This one is probably my favorite one of all. It has an upside down crown and would cause quite a stir if used during the War.
*DISCLAIMER*
You can search for "Keep Calm and " on Google and literally find every saying out there. These are just a couple I wanted to highlight. I don't own any of these pictures.
