  • What’s on my iPad, and some of my favorite apps.

    I have my iPad with me at all times, it has everything I need on it, so I often can’t survive a day without it. Because of that, I obviously need it to be looking cute! Before I tell you about my fave apps, we need to have a quick discussion about the outward appearance of my iPad. I recently got this case from Skin It. And surprise, surprise, it’s my puppy, Oakley. Fun Fact: I also have this picture on a case for my laptop and my phone. I love this case a lot. It’s great for protecting the back of my iPad. it is a clear acrylic case with an image of my puppy printed on. I think it looks great and is also fab at protecting the back of my iPad. However, this case won’t help the front of my iPad at all so I also store my iPad in my Marc Jacobs tablet case. Again, surprise! My laptop and camera case also match this. If you couldn’t tell, I really like all my tech accessories to match. I feel so professional.

    Now on to the apps. The four apps I am constantly using are iBooks, Pages, Paper, and Jurassic Park.

    iBooks is a must for university kids. Not only can you store all your ebooks on here, I mostly use it for keeping tracks of all my university notes. When my profs post notes online, I can save them directly to iBooks where I can organize them into folders. It’s been so handy! I’ve never been so organized in my life!

    Next is Pages. I recently got Pages and I’ve fallen in love with it. It’s basically the dupe of Microsoft Word but for Apple. This app is where I do all my essay writing and note taking. Then afterwards, I can save them onto iBooks so everything is still in one place.

    I don’t use the next app, Paper, for school. This is what I used for creating my blog’s banner. It’s a great app for just drawing and sketching but since I am the world’s worst artist, I usually just stick to handwriting on here. It’s hard to describe the extent of this app but I love just playing around with it.

    Lastly, is a game app. Usually, I’m not a fan of playing games on my iPad, but for those of you who don’t know, I am obsessed with dinos so I had to download Jurassic Park. I’ve been addicted ever since. If any of you have played Zoo Tycoon, this game is exactly like that except with dinosaurs. You get to create your own Jurassic Park. Is that lame? Nah.

    Some of my other most-used apps include:

    School-related: Numbers, Math Pad, AstralPad, Cloud On, Google Drive, Dropbox, Khan Academy

    For fun: Sephora, Subway Surf, Covet, Instagram, Pose, Tumblr, Etsy, Zara, Songza
