Ten Things That Are So Hot Right Now

1. Wordfeud

It's official. I am addicted. My parents play scrabble a lot but I never play with them because I always end up putting words like "dog" or "cat" down after they've put down words like "magnanimous" or "idiosyncrasy". With the Wordfued iPhone app though, I actually have a chance of winning. Particularly because I am only playing against my best friend and her boyfriend so victories come on a semi-regular basis. And the best part? It's free! Which, if you're anything like me, is the dealbreaker when it comes to the purchase of apps.

2. Innocent Orange Juice

Taken with instagram

I hate pulp or bits in any kind of drink. Absolutely hate it. I do however love a good glass of orange juice, as long as it is pulp-free. My particular favourite at the moment is Innocent smooth orange juice. It comes it a great handbag friendly bottle and it has become quite the faithful study buddy too.

3. Body Shop Honey Bronze Gel

I posted about this stuff before HERE shortly after I first bought it, and it is proving to be a great addition to my makeup bag.

4. Ryan Gosling
It is getting ridiculous at this stage and frankly I think it has just gone too far. Ryan Gosling, you are simply too fantastic and it is unfair that you should just be allowed to parade your fantastic self about with no regard for the feelings of us poor girls around the world. It's even too much for Bradley Cooper to bear!! So stop being so goddamn sexy already. Either that, or come to Galway.

5.  Emoji for iPhone
If you like using smilies, then you will love Emoji. Every emotion emojized!

6. NUIG Memes FB page
If you are not familiar with memes, then you should not be here, you should be on 9gag. Go have a browse and then come back here.

So now that you're familiar with the memes and all that, go have a look at the NUI Galway Meme page. If you go to NUIG then you will undoubtedly recognize, and have a chuckle at, some of the fantastic wee jokes they have going on.

7. Original Source Vanilla milk and Raspberry shower cream
As I mentioned before in a Studenty.me article that you can read HERE, this stuff smells like you're showering under a rainbow with a unicorn made of marshmallows.

8. Studded slippers
I have been madly in love with studded slippers since first seeing Christian Louboutin's pair (check out these ones too. And yes I'm aware that they are for men). Now Topshop are offering some looovely studded slippers too. Asos also have some studded loafers and slippers. Click HERE for a somewhat cheaper version of the Louboutins link above.

9. Lindsay Lohan on SNL
Now I am a massive fan of Saturday Night Live and I was intrigued to see how Lindsay Lohan would fare on last night's episode. This was Lohan's fourth time on SNL and so at this stage, she is well versed in the ways of the show: if you have something you're ashamed off, they will make fun of it. And for Lindsay, it was a night of jail related gags and delinquent girl gangs. Even her opening monologue wasn't free from Kirsten Wiig and Kenan Thompson patting her down and examining her pupils. For the skits however, her lines were few and far between and when she was speaking, it was more like reading because she was very clearly reading from a teleprompter or cue cards. She wasn't so much hosting but more like a guest star or something just there for a sketch or two. Jon Hamm, who was jokingly introduced as the back-up host in case something went wrong, was on screen almost as much as her (okay that may be a slight exaggeration but only slight). To be honest it wasn't really that good an episode of SNL and it was kind of disappointing. Then again though she was following Maya Rudolph and Sleigh Bells which was probably my favourite episode ever!

10. Shazam
As I began this post with an iPhone App, I figured I might as well close it with one too. Shazam is simply fantastic. Hear a song playing in a shop, a bar or pretty much anywhere at all? Desperately want to know what it is? Shazam it! (This app is also free. Whippee for cheapos like me!)

Cheers for reading,
