7 Unspoken Snapchat Rules That You Should Adhere To From This Point Forward

Let's face it, there is a lot of material on social media that makes you want to rip your hair out. You might be scrolling through and wonder, "Do these people even think before they post?! How do they not know that this is socially unacceptable and annoying?" Thankfully, I've decided to take one for the team and address some of the most annoying Snapchat habits that the general public needs to drop for good.

1. Nobody, I repeat, NOBODY wants to see your multiple snaps in a row of you singing in your car.

We are not interested. You are not Mariah Carey in the booth. Your lip syncing skills are subpar along with everybody else on the planet. We all like to entertain ourselves by having personal concerts in our front seats and watching somebody else do it just makes us all uncomfortable.

2. Nobody is actually watching your ten consecutive blurry snaps of you at some rave concert.

Pro tip: Get one good video or picture from the set that is actually worth watching. After the first one, we’re all clicking on waiting for it to be over anyway. Also, just put your damn phone down and enjoy the moment.

3. Please for the love of God stop talking to Snapchat like you are addressing your fans.

We get it, you have 1,000 followers on Instagram and consider yourself a “Public Figure”, but you are not famous and you just look like a douche. Until you actually are a big deal, nobody wants to hear the play-by-play of your day as you're talking to the screen like you're Kylie Jenner.

4. I hate to break it to you, but your 20+ snaps from your night out only make sense to you and your drunken friends.

I can assure you that you are the only one watching it over and over like you're Steven Spielberg in the morning. Just post a few highlights and save the rest to your Snapchat memories and call it a day.

5. The whole posing seductively with a filter and a sensual song in the background really just creeps me out.

Like, what are you trying to do here? I feel violated. We understand that you're clearly trying to get somebody's attention or just throwing a thirst trap out there for shits and giggles but maybe consider fluffing your ego elsewhere.

6. You can never actually post too many pictures of your pets.

Most people with hearts and souls aren't going to be like, "Oh God, please no! No more pictures of adorable and fluffy animals!" You have full permission to go crazy with this one.

7. Save the emotional ranting for your diary.

I don’t care what I’m going through in life or how upset I am…I will never post a Snapchat story with a black background and big text talking about my feelings.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
