10 Phases Of A Snapchat Streak
Garrett Boyd

It's tough out there, but we have all been through these phases in life. Find solace in the fact that you're not alone, and good luck.

1. The new relationship

Ah, the blossoming of a snapchat streak in the making. You see that "1" appear on the righthand side of your phone, accompanied by a rosy-cheeked, smiley face emoji. Great things are destined to happen.


2. The videos

The selfies are slowly evolving into selfie videos. Things are getting a little more serious.


3. The direct snaps

They used to do a two-for-one and just send you their story snaps. In this phase they are snapping YOU. Your name is now involved. You're now special. You are now a worthy snapee according to snapchat rules.


4. The uglies

Adios, filters. The time to impress is long gone. Got the flu? Still need to snap. Bad hair day? Oh well. Nothing will stop you from replying anymore.

5. The double digits

Next goal is already in the works. #tripledigits


6. Streak>Life

You now seriously acknowledge the importance of your snapchat relationship during this phase. While before it was all fun and games, videos of you going to class or eating chic fil a, it's now legit. You will snap a kleenex box and caption "#streak".


7. The first hourglass

Crap! You had 3 tests and have been cramming all day. Now you're brushing your teeth while stalking people on Facebook when you remember what you've almost forgotten. Nice save.


8. The recovery

Your significant other is glad you saved the relationship, but that doesn't stop them from judging you. This is only day 17. What will you be like on Day 117? They will start doubting your commitment abilities.


9. The second hourglass

This time, it was them. Their phone died. They were able to text, Facebook, and Instagram on their laptop, but unfortunately for your relationship, Snap was forgotten. It's over.


10. The breakup

Now you have to move on. There is no longer a number justifying the commitment, the effort put into that relationship. Hopefully you're still best friends, but it's just not the same. Who knows? Maybe a new streak will form. But don't fear: there are plenty of fish in the sea, and you will find another streak eventually.


You will be okay. You will get through this.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
