The Top 5 Texting Faces

Unless you are a robot, you are not emotionless when you text.

The Top 5 Texting Faces

Honestly, texting has slightly contributed to my generation’s inability to talk face-to-face, but we still do all right, given the circumstances. Regardless of who you happen to be, I know you text. It’s a normal thing nowadays. Group messages, individual messages and group messages without that one person you don’t like from the original group message are all a normal part of life. While you are texting, think about the faces you make. If you think you are emotionless while texting, remember that screenshot your best friend sent you last week. Here are a few examples of the "texting faces."


1. I am in a public place, but I must awkwardly smile, but not too much.

We've all been there. It's hard contain the laughter that would have happened had we been in our bed with our Netflix.


2. Why did his name appear on my phone?

Taylor Swift might write a song about it for us. But really, why? I am at Five Guys stuffing my face with fries, and you decide to say "Hey." What does this mean?

3. I look good today, so let's text everyone.

You're bored and need plans. After all, you look bomb today, and it would be a shame to waste a cute outfit. Not to mention, your hair looks fabulous. Then you think, well maybe I can go be hipster at a coffee shop. Maybe I'll meet a cute boy. No. No. No. Text everyone so you aren't getting coffee alone. Fake hipster is not cool.

4. I'm over it.

You are having a conversation with your friend about literally the same thing since forever. Same complaints, new words. Like boo, I love you but we gotta find some new issues. It's been approximately three years. Get it together. Or text someone else about it every once in a while.

5. This is the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life.

Thank the group message that keeps you going in the middle of the week. It is the most important thing on a late Wednesday night. You have a 9 a.m. test and are on the verge of a breakdown, but your best friends have the world's best conversation. So you just laugh hysterically, instead.


So yes. You do indeed make different faces when you text. If you're still in denial, have someone follow you around with a camera. Because I promise, I've seen you walking around on your phone in Wal-Mart. It's funny. Thank the group messages and the best friends, because they are the happy texting faces. Other humans? Well, hopefully you learn how to make the person on the receiving end smile. If you can't, maybe you shouldn't be texting this conversation in the first place. Much love!

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.

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.

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.
