11 Reasons Why Every Girl Should Have A Fake Instagram
Olivia Hurley

Scrolling through your daily Instagram feed you'll usually see the same typical photos, duck face selfies, sorority girl pictures, celebrity photos, artistic sunsets, or even someone's outfit of the day. Looking through these pictures every single day gets old. The simple solution to spice up your news feed is to make yourself a fake Instagram (a finsta). And if that has not already convinced you, here are 10 reasons that should:

1. There is no need to stress about getting likes.

On your real Instagram account, the amount of likes you get is important. Getting over 5 likes on your finsta is super exciting.

2. It doesn’t take an hour to pick the right edit.

No one cares if you use Vsco or Instasize, your photo is beautiful the way it is. #noedit really comes in clutch.

3. It’s perfectly acceptable to like your own photo.

(On your real account too)

4. The pictures you post all express who you truly are.

Posting 100 pictures of your dog, your favorite Netflix shows, and your late night munchies is acceptable.

5. Your followers are handpicked to your liking.

Because you’re on private, you can let whoever you want follow you. Not to mention that only your true friends will appreciate your posts.

6. Your caption is a perfect place to vent about all the problems in your life.

Especially when your ex-boyfriend does something to piss you off and you can call him out without him ever seeing.

7. When you feel like you aren’t getting enough likes on your real photo, a like from yourself is always a nice confidence boost.

It’s important to go from 99 to 100 likes.

8. Ugly photos of yourself will never go to waste in your camera roll.

The infamous ugly photos you take with your friends can be shared to make your followers day a little bit brighter.

9. Creative usernames are encouraged.

Employers can’t find you if your username is a pun separated by 3 underscores.

10. All unspoken Instagram rules are disregarded.


You can basically do whatever you want, as long as it gets a laugh or two.

11. Everybody's doing it.

Once you make a finsta, so will your friends. It's a new trend!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
