iPhone 8 Plus Review

-
Hi everyone! 

Today I'm talking about an early Christmas gift that I got: the iPhone 8 Plus!  When getting a new iPhone, most people have been trying to decide between the iPhone 8, or the iPhone X.  I chose the 8, so today I'm going to be letting you know what I think of it!


The main reason that I wanted the 8 over the X was the home button.  I know that the face ID is new technology and is supposed to be way more secure than a finger print, I'm too used to the home button to try anything else!


I got the 8 plus in the color "gold" and I really like it!  I was worried about the phone having a glass back again like the old iPhone 4 had, but it genuinely feels pretty sturdy, and not too fragile.  Plus the fact that I have a case on the back helps to make sure that the glass back is protected.


The main reason I wanted the plus over the normal size is the portrait mode camera.  The phone I had before this one was the iPhone 6s and although I really liked that size, I really love photography and wanted to be able to take professional camera-quality photos on my iPhone when I may not have my camera with me.  I got used to the size very quickly and honestly don't even notice it anymore!  I love the size and will probably stick with a plus from now on!


The case that I have is this one from Apple in "Pink Sand".  They are a little more expensive than the average phone case, but I love the Apple brand silicone cases!  They are soft, super simple, and stop your phone from sliding around on surfaces.  I had the black one on my iPhone 6s, and new that I for sure wanted one when I got a new phone!

I hope you all have a happy New Year!

xoxo, Hannah

February/March Content Consumption

Since my family and I are 100% practicing social distancing right now, we have been staying home and consuming so  much content.  I realized I never posted a February content consumption post, but that's mainly because I read a ton of books and only watched one TV show...so it really would have been pretty boring.  Although March is already almost over, I thought I would just combine the two now in case you all want to read/watch what I did these past two months while you're social distancing! BOOKS The Boys in the Boat by Daniel James Brown: 9.5/10 //  All I can say about this book is wow .  My family and I got this book for my grandpa for Christmas a few years ago and he still says it's his favorite gift he has ever gotten.  I had been wanting to read it, but I kept putting it off since I don't know much about rowing and I wasn't sure if I would find it enjoyable.  I finally borrowed the book from my grandpa and wow am I glad I did!...

Who I Watch On YouTube

Since I am currently at home for Spring Break and not going on a trip, I am spending a lot of break watching YouTube!  I've been watching YouTube for so long and have added and gotten rid of subscriptions for years.  I am always so interested in seeing who other people watch, so I thought I would share some of my faves!  So without further ado, here is my YouTube Subscription List! 1. ABBY ASSELIN I started following Abby about a month ago, and I'm so so glad that I found her!  She is a sophomore at the University of Alabama who mainly does "College Day in My Life" videos.  They are some of my favorite videos to watch, and she gives me a lot of ideas such as healthy meals, workout routines, and study tips!  It also helps that her dog is absolutely adorable! 2. GRETCHEN GERAGHTY Gretchen's channel is another recent find.  I started watching her videos in January and am so  glad that I subscribed!  She is another YouTuber in colle...

What I Eat At College

This year is really the first year that I have started cooking for myself.  Freshman year I lived in a dorm, so I would either eat microwavable macaroni and cheese, eat at the dining halls, or go out to eat.  Sophomore year I lived in a sorority house, so we had a chef that cooked lunch and dinner for us throughout the week.  This year, I live in an off campus house which means I have to go grocery shopping for myself and actually cook some meals.  It took a lot of getting used to in the beginning, but now it's actually kinda fun to plan out what I want to eat and make it.  So here is what I eat throughout the week. BREAKFAST What I eat for breakfast usually depends on how much time I have in the morning.  On the mornings that I have dance practice at 7am, I usually eat a Chobani flip cup yogurt.  These things are so good!  There are so many different flavors that I never get bored of having them! I also buy Quaker Oats to make my own oat...
