Pocket Trains Walkthrough, Tips & Hints

I usually don't do this, but since this game is consuming so much of my time. I thought why not share with you guys or whoever is actually paying attention.
This game is called the Pocket Trains and it is made by the same creator that made tiny towers & pocket planes. I love this game! It doesn't require me to have Wi-Fi at all times and I love the little graphics of the people that remind me of Tiny Towers.


So my friend thinks that this game is kind of confusing and as you can see in my map it does get a tad messy. Basically you are the person that's organizing these various trains and you control their routes. you can expand your network by purchasing more stations and more paths. 

Tips/ Hints:
You can get coins and money if you View the train as it's making its way to it's destination 

If you do run out of quoins you can convert your bills into coins

Participate in the daily events and the prize is one crate with a mysterious chain part and 20 bills (keep in mind that the events may not actually include cities you already have access to but it will be a little" ! "On the city if the event revolves around delivering a particular type of car go to that city. 

Adding an engine will let your trains carry more cargo per trip
Adding a fuel car extend its fuel capacity


If you do run out of fuel I was suggest just waiting or consider building a new engine because it is very expensive to pay for the temp refuel. 

You can also gift components to your friends and your code is found under options on the menu page (it is a four digit/number code)


If you do see a ! In the shop this means that you can click to watch videos and earned two bills per video (it's very similar to what they do for the Tiny Towers game) 

I hope that you guys will try this game and spend as much time as I do.

Manicure Monday - Feb 10 2014

In the spirit of Valentine's Day, I decided to paint my nails pink! I used to think that I didn't buy many pinks because I like non-traditional colours.... until I swatched all of my pink polishes. I had like 15 pink polishes and about 15 blue/green polishes.
My nail polish obsession aside, I love this colour and I am sad because it is getting so clumpy now ):
It is like the perfect coral pink, it is a limited edition colour called Casting Call in the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure formula. Happy early Valentine's Day :)

Mini Haul - Shopping vs. Buying

According to my boyfriend, all he does is "buying" and I am always "shopping". The difference between the two is I spend too much time walking around looking at stuff with no immediate intention to buy. I think it's fine, I bought one of these items and "shopped" for the rest.

I generally never shop at American Apparel and these riding pants were $82 Canadian. But, I did have a groupon for the value of 80$ so I only paid 7 dollars in tax. (~$47). I was contemplating between the disco pants and riding pants when I was browsing online. Since these are high-waisted, I decided to get them in medium :)
Over the boxing day sale, I went on Chapters and shopped around to find these adorable pug cards. They come in a set of 8 and they were approx 3 dollars for the box. They are also blank cards so they can be customized to suit any occasion. Never send the items to be picked up at store, they took forever to get over there.

Last item I shopped for was this non-caffenated tea blend from DavidsTea. It smells lovely but I haven't tried it yet :)
Strawberry Rhubarb Parfait
I need to stop shopping ><

Manicure Monday - Feb 3 2014

I am on time! I hope this continues. I decided to continue the purple trend. Mostly because this nail polish is almost opaque in 1 coat. Can you guess what brand of polish this is?
In Natural Lighting
You are correct if you guessed Forever 21. Now, I don't think you would expect it but it's true! I actually picked up this polish online... last year? Now before you run out to buy every colour, I also bought a green one but that one will probably need 4 coats.

I love how shiny my nails are when I use seche vite. The name of the polish is Lavender, but they've already discontinued this type of packaging ):
