The 7 Kinds of Snapchatters
instyle.com

Snapchat – one of the greatest inventions of our time. It allows us to send selfies with more chins than we ever knew we had, turn ourselves into everything from a dog to a strawberry and experience FOMO like no other. It makes you realize just how long 10 seconds is and wonder why you look better as a dog than you do as yourself. Just like anything, everyone has their own Snapchat "style." Whether we realize what kind of Snapchatter we are or not, we are all known for the pictures we send and post to our stories. If you are wondering what kind of Snapchatter you are, then you will find this list extremely helpful. If you already know what kind of Snapchatter you are, then this list will help you realize that you are not alone.

1. The Filter Obsessed

The filter-obsessed Snapchatter would not be caught dead sending a Snapchat without a filter. Whether it be a geofilter letting everyone know where they are or the filter that magically makes you look like a supermodel (still not sure how that filter works to be honest), these Snapchatters love their filters and never send a snap without one. These Snapchatters might even find themselves traveling to new places simply to get the geofilters in that area.

2. The Streak Keeper

This Snapchatter highly values their snapchat streaks, which is the number that lets you know how many days you and your friend have consecutively snapped in a row, and will do everything in their power to maintain them. Nothing is more annoying to a streak keeper than somebody that could not care less about snapchat streaks. In this situation, it is not uncommon for the streak keeper to send a snap of a black screen saying "streak" to encourage the other person to respond in order to keep the streak. Breaking a streak is a very heart-breaking moment for a steak keeper and he or she may require some time to get used to not seeing the fire emoji next to their best friend's name anymore.

3. The Texter

The texter is a huge fan of the messaging feature on Snapchat and does not care that the entire conversation will be deleted as soon as he presses send. There is nothing worse than forgetting what you said when sending a Snapchat message because what you said is gone forever. The texter may have become this kind of Snapchatter because he or she is too lazy to keep switching from Snapchat to their messaging app, which is completely understandable. Pushing the home button can get pretty strenuous from time to time.

4. The Selfie King/Queen

The selfie king or queen is obsessed with taking selfies and does not feel the judgement he or she receives when taking a million selfies in public. The Snapchat story of this kind of Snapchatter is usually loaded with selfies, which may or may not contain the exciting new filters that Snapchat has posted for that day. Just because they like taking selfies does not mean they are always good selfies. This type of Snapchatter has usually mastered the art of taking ugly selfies and not caring.

5. The Repeater

The repeater is the person on Snapchat that thinks it's a good idea to send a picture to individual people and then post it on their Snapchat story as well. There is nothing more annoying than feeling all special when you receive a Snapchat to later finding that exact picture on their Snapchat story. Do not be a repeater.

6. The Anti-Kim

The anti-Kim, which is named after Kim Kardashian West, hates taking selfies and can rarely be caught doing so, unlike selfie queen Kim Kardashian West. Just because this person does not like taking selfies, does not mean that they do not like Snapchat. This Snapchatter often takes pictures of their surroundings in order to communicate with their friends on Snapchat. You may be asking yourself, "Why don't they just text their friend instead?" However, it is just not the same.

7. The Story Teller

This Snapchatter is guilty of having a super long Snapchat story that few people make it to the end of. Long Snapchat stories can sometimes be interesting, but often times are just an extra workout for your thumb. We all know who the story tellers are and often tend to avoid their Snapchat stories. Ain't nobody got time to watch a 200-second Snapchat story.

Most of us are more than just one type of Snapchatter and we find ourselves with qualities from two or more of the different kinds of Snapchatter, and that is okay. Embrace your style and keep on snapping!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
