While walking around a college campus, you see a lot of things. One thing that stands out about college students is that they all seem to stroll around sporting laptops that have a variety of stickers on them. Based on your personality, the stickers on your laptop can say a lot about you. Here's a list of the type of person you are based on the type of stickers you put on your laptop.
1. Organized stickers
If you are someone who has their laptop stickers arranged perfectly even and lined up, it probably means that you are an organized person in your life as well. You like to keep your work area, car and bedroom super clean, and you're probably one of those people who writes things on their to-do list just so they can cross them off. When you're in class, you have the nicest handwritten notes, and are likely to color code all of your assignments in highlighters. You are the person we all aspire to be.
2. Unorganized stickers
If you are anything like me, you probably didn't put any thought into where your stickers went on your computer. You probably scanned the surface for a few seconds, shrugged and thought to yourself, "Eh, I'll just plop it right here" without a second thought. Your stickers are most likely overlapping and somehow, your laptop actually looks good. You're probably a creative person with a lot of ideas that you just can't keep track of because your mind goes a mile a minute. Even though most people think you're messy and all over the place, you always seem to get things done when they need to be done. So what? A little bit of organized chaos never hurt anyone.
3. TV show stickers
After watching "The Office" for the fourteenth time on Netflix, you finally decide to get a sticker to commemorate all of the good times you've had watching your favorite show. Besides being a dorky, funny, lighthearted person, you're also the person who gets sad every time they finish a series because they legitimately felt they were part of the show. Don't worry, we've all been there before.
4. Cheesy quote stickers
You know exactly the type of stickers I'm talking about - the ones that say things like "Good things take time" or "Look on the bright side" in that fancy calligraphy lettering that we all wish we could do. Even though they are indeed cheesy, these stickers are some of the cutest ones around and show that you have an optimistic spirit. People with cheesy quote stickers are the type of people I want to talk to in class and become fast friends with because they are the type of people who hype you up when you need that extra little nudge.
5. Dog stickers
You miss your favorite furry friend(s) from back home and you want everyone to know it. Every time you see dog stickers, you nearly shed a tear thinking about all of the good times you've had over the years with your own dog(s). It's likely that you have your dog(s) as your computer or phone background, and FaceTime your mom every day to see your furry friends (don't worry, we won't tell your mom that these phone calls aren't for her). You have crazy dog parent written all over you, which is honestly the best label to have.
6. Food stickers
If you have food stickers on your laptop, you're like me - always hungry. What better way to represent this than to have a sticker of pizza on your laptop for everyone to see? At any given moment you could eat a cow. You're also the type of person who has an extreme amount of confidence because you don't care what other people think about you. Oh, and you probably leave pizza grease all over your keyboard or cracker crumbs in the cracks of your computer. Saving it for later though, am I right?
7. Political stickers
You are a very opinionated person who knows what they want and is willing to stand up for what they believe in, despite what other people might think. You know that people see your stickers and judge you, but frankly, you don't care. You get into arguments on Twitter and Facebook over current events and you are fiercely loyal to your beliefs. Overall, you are an independent person who cares a tremendous amount about the people and things in your life.
8. Alcohol stickers
You like to party and want everyone to know it. These types of stickers are typically bottles of wine or ones that say things like "rosé all day." You're probably the most basic person ever, and you talk about how you can't wait for pumpkin spice lattes at Starbucks and how you got so wasted at wine Wednesday last week right before your exam. If you see someone with a vodka or tequila sticker on their laptop, turn the other way. You really don't need to hear how they go from party to party on the weekends as if that's something unusual for a college student.
9. School stickers
You've got school spirit and you know you chose the right place to go to college. You attend your dream school and you are so proud to show everyone around that you bleed green (or red or blue or purple or whatever - it's all irrelevant if you don't go to Michigan State, the best school ever). You probably watch hype videos for football season and get chills, and sing yourself to sleep at night with the fight song. You live for Saturdays and tailgate season, and Tom Izzo and Mark Dantonio are your idols.
10. Only a few stickers
You're simple and you probably just hopped on the laptop sticker trend. You didn't want to buy too many stickers for fear that they wouldn't look good together or there wouldn't be enough room, but you greatly underestimated the amount of space you have. You aren't addicted to stickers now, but soon enough you'll be on Red Bubble checking out your cart with 27 stickers trying to impossibly narrow it down to 3 because there just isn't enough room for all of them.
11. No stickers
You don't care enough to buy stickers. That's an extra however many dollars that you have to buy something you need, like books, a calculator or food. Only the necessities for you - no need to go above and beyond when it really doesn't matter to you. That's one less thing you need to worry about, and you are already busy enough without the extra added stress that comes naturally for most people. Being you is complicated, but you just might have it all figured out.
12. A little bit of everything
You're kind of basic, kind of dorky, kind of funny and kind of out there - but hey, that's okay. You're a wild person who can fit in with anyone you meet and you have the ability to bring a smile to the faces of many. Your quirky personality stands out and you're sort of a happy-go-lucky person. Being able to go with the flow is your greatest quality, and you talk a lot. And by a lot, I mean that in elementary school, your teacher probably always checked the box on your report card that said "Talks too much in class," and/or "Distracts others in class." There is nothing wrong with that; keep up the laid-back lifestyle.
All in all, laptop stickers are a really neat way to express yourself and show your peers what makes you, you. If you haven't hopped on the laptop sticker bandwagon yet, your time is surely coming.
