Texting, snapchatting, Instagramming, etc., technology has completely taken out the emotion we use when having a conversation and replaced the personal with reading words on a screen. But thank God for emojis, because without them, how would we differentiate a simple "Hey" from "hey"? Since life is hard sometimes and we can never read the tone of a text through an iPhone, I listed below the must-have emojis in your recents as a college student.
Rolling Eyes Emoji
Applicable when you're talking about that girl who swears she "definitely failed" the exam that you know she will get upwards of a 96 percent on. In fact, it's even more applicable when you in fact know you failed.
100 Emoji
When something's gucci or you want to reassure your friend that the plans for tonight are a-go, hit 'em with that 100 emoji. They'll thank you for the confirmation.
Running Man Emoji
Whether you're running away from your problems or telling your roommate you're actually working out, the running man emoji is an oldie but a goodie. Highly underrated and can be used on multiple situations (i.e. discussing your postgrad plans).
Party Thing (no one knows what this actually is) Emoji
For obvious reasons. And to celebrate finally turning that paper in.
See-No-Evil Monkey Emoji
How cute are the monkeys? Shocked, surprised, or embarrassed, you need this emoji in your life. For sure one of my most used.
SOS Emoji
Simple, but effective. SOS gets your point across when talking to your study partner or reaching out to your best friend to let her know that guy you've been talking to was walking past you on the quad with another girl.
Awkward Hand Emoji
When you don't know what to say back, always throw an awkward hand emoji. No one knows what this emoji is supposed to be used for, so you're pretty much given free reign with this one.
Fire Emoji
The staple emoji in the comment section of sorority sisters' Instagrams, the fire emoji is great when you want to let someone know their outfit is absolute "fire." Or that new song you heard at the frat this weekend is "lit." Keep it in your favorites, people.
Cross-Eyed Face Emoji
Whether you're on your deathbed if God forbid you get sick at college (which is the absolute worst) or you're running on E from the six hours of sleep you've gotten in the past five days, this emoji is for you.
Champagne, Beer, Wine, Sangria Emojis
Regardless of actual consumption on your part or not, it is essential to keep these emojis readily in your mind. With the amount of people you know approaching legal age, it's absolutely necessary to throw these in with the obligatory birthday post for your lab partner's best friend's freshman year roommate.
