What's App-ening Wednesday? #7: Marvel's the Avengers: A Second Screen Experience
Yo wassup peeps! Today we're gonna be talking a little about the Avengers app, which goes alongside the Blu-ray version of The Avengers.
I absolutely love Marvel and The Avengers is just one of my favourite films, so when I found out about this app, I naturally went and downloaded it.
Personally, I think this app is just awesome! The interface is very S.H.I.E.L.D. and it makes you feel like you're in the control room on the helicarrier.
As for the actual content, they've got character files, which contain various elements such as videos, close-ups of weapons, and other 'confidential' information. There's also an interesting-looking timeline, which I haven't explored in too much detail yet.
Even though the app is meant to be connected with the Blu-ray version of the film, I don't ever use that function.
Overall, I love the feel of the app and it's great fun going through S.H.I.E.L.D.'s top secret folders.

Weekly News Round-Up #38: 20/10/2013
Hello, hello, hello! Welcome to an on-time edition of Weekly News
Round-Up! This week has been semi-relaxed...actually I take that back,
now that I think about it...
Monday breaktime saw our dearest ANT ranting about a craft fair that she had been to the previous day. She made sure to point out that she very much dislikes browsing, being the sort of person who goes into a store, gets what they need and then makes a bee-line for the exit.
After ANT went home for lunch, Ruby, ArwaChihuahua and Master had a fabulous game of 'Guess the Skittle Flavour' (Ruby had a pack of 'Confused Skittles' and we took turns at guessing what flavour it was meant to be). Until this little game, I'd never heard of blue rasperry or melon berry before (I even did a little research on it just now). How interesting. I bet ol' ANT is regretting going home now ;)
In other lunchtime news, ConscienceSarah gave us all a sneak preview of her new story. I'm not sure how much I'm allowed to reveal, but we'll keep you posted.
Wednesday afternoon was an interesting one. Thankfully, Mr Ian Bory was able to provide a reference for Wicks and ArwaChihuahua's project. Meanwhile, the rest of the afternoon was spent on badminton. Even though we spent much time on the courts, we also spent time observing other players. An individual that surprised us was CatMole. There was a particular point when he was trying to take his coat off, but he was still playing. Somehow he managed to inch it off inbetween hits.
This week has also been one of birthdays! On Thursday it was Wadz's big day and Friday was DisneyLover Molly's! Hope you both had a good time :D
Friday lunchtime was also rather eventul. We discussed computer games, such as Minecraft, Sims, and those cooking and dress-up games. For once, ANT decided not to argue about which, out of Minecraft and Sims, she thought was better.
And to end a great week, ArwaChihuahua aimed food at Wicks' mouth. We have video proof that ArwaChihuahua scored at least once ;p
Until next week, have a good one ;)

What's App-ening Wednesday? #6: My Horse
Hey peeps! Speaking of hay, today we're talking about My Horse!
After hearing ArwaChihuahua and Wicks talking about it, I thought I'd give it a go.
It's pretty much exactly what it says it is on the tin. You get a virtual horse to look after. This includes many tasks, including feeding, cleaning, entering competitions etc. I must admit that it's a nice game, but it's not something that I go back to very often (I'm probably not their target demographic anyway).
If you're interested, you can check out their website:

Weekly News Round-Up #37: 13/10/2013
Now, I must start this post with a massive apology to all you loyal
readers. I offer y'all my most sincerst apologies for this incredibly
late update. My reason is that Team Business temporarily took over my
life. Very sorry about that, and I will make sure that it won't happen
again.
With that outta the way, what happened last week?
Monday lunchtime was an eventful one as a few of us decided it would be a fun idea to steal Wadz's possessions (when I say steal, we just hid it under the table for a while). Naturally, this lead to a few people getting a slap...
This week may also be considered eventful in the sense that it was interhouse! (I'll have y'all know that my astro-surfing days are over.) There were even more options than usual: badminton, hockey, or logic-related puzzles (crosswords and sudoku's). As expected, we went for the logic-related puzzles. As we like our strategies, it was decided that ArwaChihuahua and Master would solve the sudoku, whilst the rest of the team tackled the crossword.
In the end, we completed at least one crossword and two sudoku's (even though, in the first one, there were two 5's in one section. The second one ended in us putting it down to luck. It reached the point where you just think #yolo.) Overall, I think it was a nice end to Wednesday :)
A project that's been in the pipelines for a few weeks re-surfaced in conversation on Thursday. There has been talk of us forming a new band called 'Banned' (you like the play on words? We're still unsure about whether the 'e' should be in there or not...), which will essentially be a freestyle percussion group (if you remember that little tribal moment the other week, you'll know what sort of music we're talking about). We'll keep you updated on more 'Banned' news...
On that same afternoon, all members of our year had to listen to a presentation (which was slightly pointless, since we'd heard it all before the previous year). It just happened that we were one of the last to get in the hall, therefore we ended up with front row seats, consequently giving everyone the impression that we were extraordinarily enthusiastic. It was an inspirational talk, however Wicks got a little distracted by the wallpaper in the room (a certain part of the pattern looked like a dog). Afterwards, the only one of us to sign up for spam mail was the Cap. (Wicks had learnt from previous experience that this organisation are most keen on marketing, whether it be by email, phone, fax... (I was joking about fax).)
Friday lunchtime saw ANT buy herself some chips. They happened to be very plain, therefore she went back to get salt and ketchup. In the time that she was away, Ruby and Master took this opportunity to dare eachother to steal a chip and see if ANT noticed the difference. In the end, Master took a chip, however Ruby was unable to as ANT had made a speedy return. She didn't notice any difference.
Master would like to publicly apologise to ANT for taking a chip without permission.
Of course, if this scenario rings a bell in your head, it did in ours as well. Master leapt at the opportunity to remind everyone of the salt sachet incident ;p
ANT also decided to voice her opinions on the incredibly famous movie 'Titanic'. She said something like, "I don't really find it sad. If anything, I find it quite funny, like the part where she says 'she'll never let go' but she does in the end..." Now, that is just so typically ANT. Enough said.
So, it was Cap.'s birthday this week! Woooo! To conclude, Cap. invited us all to go bowling (who doesn't love a bitta bowling?) I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say that we had a great time :)
To end a great Saturday, ArwaChihuahua, Wicks and Master stopped off at 'The Codfather' on the way back home. Let me tell you now, if your in the market for some fish and chips, and you like your chips wrapped, 'The Codfather' is the place to be! #puntastic
Until next week, have a good one ;)

What's App-ening Wednesday? #5: Modern Girl
Hello there! This week, I've got a review for y'all on Modern Girl.
Now, if you remember ANT's review on Top Girl, this game is by the same creators and is pretty much the exact same concept. When asked ANT said, "This is exactly the same as Top Girl, but instead everything's purple." Personally, I don't completely agree with this as there are some improvements in Modern Girl. I find that the graphics are better and the boyfriend doesn't follow you around everywhere.
Apart from that, the chat-up lines are as good as they are in Top Girl.
If that sounds appealing to you, check out their website:

Weekly News Round-Up #36: 06/10/2013
How's it going, peeps? This weeks been slightly quieter, but I cna almost promise that there will be a lot more to come in the very near future... Let's crack on!
At the beginning of the week, we were talking about the Mr Men and Little Miss collection. Along with that, there was much talk about Wick and ArwaChihuahua's previous experiences of getting free comic books on the day of a certain comic book festival!
What surprised me the most at lunchtime were Ruby's Yorkie buttons. If you're confused, they were just massive chocolate buttons. Later, we imagined the sort of people, or giants, who would work at the production factory...
It also occurred to us, this week, that ArwaChihuahua's clothes always have a stain of some sort on them. It truly baffles us how it happens. It's almost as if she was cursed after the yogurt incident.
One of the biggest things that happened this week, at the Academy, was the issue of our own name tags, or as Wadz prefers to call them 'Swag Tags'. The lanyards are of a sunshine yellow shade of colour, there's no hiding if you're wearing one of them.
Meanwhile, our photos on them came in varying degrees of humiliation. We were able to put them in order from most happy-looking to least. It seems to be accepted by everyone that Master looks most unimpressed and angry in her photo. People just took one look at it and burst into laughter.
ConscienceSarah and Master also discovered that there's more than one way to wear it. By wearing it across the body, it also serves as what ConscienceSarah likes to call a 'samurai sash'.
For enrichment this week, we decided to mix it up a little by switching from badminton to tennis. this was mainly because there wasn't enough room on the badminton courts, and also ANT decided that it was time to brush up on our tennis skills.
With next week being Interhouse week, I'm sure we'll have more to tell... ;p
Also, look out for a new spam-related segment coming soon to this blog. Plus, your Wednesday's will be just that tad brighter with all new Wadz's Poetry Wednesday over on the Book Blog :)
Until next week, have a good one ;)

What's App-ening Wednesday? #4: Pocket Warwick
This week's guest reviewer is the wonderful Wicks! Here's what she had to say about the app 'Pocket Warwick':
Being a big Warwick Davis fan (you mean you aren't?!), I eagerly downloaded this free app and set to work coaching my little Warwick to stardom. Caring for him, completing missions and feeding him multiple roast dinners. Unfortunately, to complete said missions and feed your Warwick, you need to spend money. Money which takes quite a few missions to earn. This meant that before too long, Warwick was living in poverty.
My enthusiasm waned and I left him to his own devices for a day. When I returned, I found Warwick saddened and dressed in a grimy dressing gown. All bars at zero and I was only gone for a day?! *sigh* So needy.
Spending more money to get him back into shape, then forgetting about him, repeat, repeat, repeat,- and I was skint. Sorry Warwick - A-list? Unlikely!
4/12 stars
- Fun at first, but any neglect and woe betide you!

Weekly News Round-Up #35: 29/09/2013
How's it going, peeps? This has been a week of reading, camouflage and Googling. Let's get started...
Monday morning saw Wicks coming into school and having a litle rant about X-men. To avoid SPOILERS, skip to the next bold word. It is a mystery to us all how Magneto manages to lose when there are people on the opposing team who are partly made of metal. We think he's definitely a candidate for Villain Academy. Overall, it got a 2/12 from Wicks.
After lunch, BaffledHarrison, Alexis, Wicks and Master all had a free lesson. They decided it would be nice for BaffledHarrison to read them an extract from 'A Game of Thrones', since he has such an audio-book-reader voice. The whole experience was enhanced further by the occasional ad-lib ;p
In the middle of the week, they had enrichment in the form of badminton, where a rather extraordinary number of people turned up.
Firstly, Master looked pretty ridiculous as the only person in the room standing in full PE kit. ANT unintentionally made matters worse by saying that she 'felt over-dressed' when she was swaggering about in normal gear.
During the session, the group managed to lose their court to another group. Consequently, they were squeezed onto a smaller court, playing 3 against 2. Wicks remarked that we should play like you'd play table football, where you can only move sideways. Overall, we had a good time :)
Thursday was the Academy's All-round Fun-day!
Wicks, ArwaChihuahua, ConscienceSarah and Master were involved in activities inspired by the Hunger Games. Sensibly, most people went for the green and black colour palette, outfit-wise. It also happened that there was plenty of face/body paint, which was meant for camouflage. Everyone, apart from Wicks, went all out on the paint. Wicks, The Wolf, decided to transform Master into The Eagle by painting a yellow beak on her forehead. It was all happy days until the end of the day when Master tried to wash it all off. That was the tricky part.
Meanwhile, Ruby and ANT were involved in Interhouse events with the 2nd years. To our surprise, ANT apparently had a good day being a team coordinator and working with the younger kids. Although she did have one kid who decided to be the downer of the group and insisted on not doing anything. There was also a kid who insisted on being called 'Samuel' instead of 'Sam'. He was apparently the real star of the group.
Until next week, have a good one ;)

On Friday, most of us had a good go on the Google piñata
game. Also, ANT and Ruby experimented with different Google tricks,
such as typing in 'Google sphere' or 'Google gravity' and then hitting
the 'I'm feeling lucky' button. Master was oh so impressed with this
new-found Google knowledge.
There
was also much discussion at lunchtime about the pet versions of certain
games. They contemplated 'Candy Crush Pets' (which Wicks imagined to be
a rather terrible game where pets got crushed by candy), 'Cut the Rope
Pets' and 'Top Girl Pets'.
However,
the game of the moment has got to be 'Handy Crush' (Name credits go to ConscienceSarah). Yes, you heard
right, it's that pointless game where you and a bunch of friends sit
around a table and piles your hands on top of one another's.
And
to end a most eventful week, we had a lil' tribal moment, where we used
the tables as drums, Wadz did a solo, and ConscienceSarah half-expected
someone to burst into a tribal tune and perform a ceremony of sorts.
Until next week, have a good one ;)

What's App-ening Wednesday? #3: Magic Piano
Today's hilarious review comes from Wadz! Take a look:
Smule. Many thoughts come to mind if the faintly German-sounding company is ever mentioned to me. Accomplishment, determination and pride. However words such as annoyance, confusion and table-flip also spring into mind. Today’s review will be about none other than the app Magic Piano. From Britney’s “Stronger” to Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata”, people all around the world take up the hobby of climbing through these ranks of ebony and ivory. And for what? Grade eight on piano? I think not. But in all seriousness, this app helps you with one thing, the art of time killing. And honestly, this game is mind-blowingly addictive. Which really confuses me because Apple doesn't seem to register that you are supposed to use 4 fingers at once at some points and closes the game, just for you. Making you start all over again after your “masterpiece”. Thanks Steve. That and the fact if you play on an iPhone and not an iPad, your thumbs may as well belong to an alpha male Silverback.

Smule. Many thoughts come to mind if the faintly German-sounding company is ever mentioned to me. Accomplishment, determination and pride. However words such as annoyance, confusion and table-flip also spring into mind. Today’s review will be about none other than the app Magic Piano. From Britney’s “Stronger” to Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata”, people all around the world take up the hobby of climbing through these ranks of ebony and ivory. And for what? Grade eight on piano? I think not. But in all seriousness, this app helps you with one thing, the art of time killing. And honestly, this game is mind-blowingly addictive. Which really confuses me because Apple doesn't seem to register that you are supposed to use 4 fingers at once at some points and closes the game, just for you. Making you start all over again after your “masterpiece”. Thanks Steve. That and the fact if you play on an iPhone and not an iPad, your thumbs may as well belong to an alpha male Silverback. Nevertheless, 4/5.

"Same thing as last time, John."

Story behind quote:
We contemplated if the people on the Great British Bake-Off were allowed to bake the same thing every week. Wicks imagined what it'd be like to ask for the ingredients...
This sorta reminded Master of 'Pinky and the Brain':
Pinky: "So, what dya wanna do tonight then, Brain?"
Brain: "The same thing that we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the world!"
Whatta show.
