Answer this Philosophy 150: If you hike to the House of Dreams and don't post a Snapchat, did you really hike to the House of Dreams?

19 Snapchat Stories Your Berry Friends Post
Leigh Hadaway

1. The fruit in DHall PSA

If there is any fruit besides bananas, apples or cantaloupe at DHall, it's your civil duty to post it on your Snapchat story. Studies show that fruit in DHall public service announcements increase DHall attendance by 70 percent. To be the most hated person, post a picture of a ToGo box filled with strawberries while the rest of us scrape through the leftover stems.

2. Sunrise and sunset snaps

There is no need to be sad if you miss the sunrise or sunset, because half of the student body captured it for you! For sunrises, there's a 90 percent chance that the caption is, "Makes waking up early worth it." For sunsets, you can expect a nice "So Berry pretty" or "End to a Berry great day." No filter needed.

3. The chasing deer video

Taking pictures of deer? Ha, you're not a tourist, you know not to take pictures of deer unless you have a hilarious caption. But strategically planning out a Snapchat video of your friends running after a group of deer? That's some quality entertainment.

4. The "when class is out early"

Class is out 20 minutes early. Low-quality picture taken as you walk out of an academic building. A lot of praise hand emojis. Very similar to "class is canceled, praise hand emoji" snaps. Simple yet enough to instill jealousy to your friend who's stuck in a three-hour organic chemistry lab. Next Snapchat posted is a guaranteed Netflix screen.

5. The infamous Netflix screen

This is undoubtedly the most common Snapchat you will see. "Should be studying LOL," the caption says. LOL yeah but if you and your Christmas lights and initial mug want to take an all-day study break, you do you. Responsibilities can wait. Meredith and McDreamy need you.

6. The Res adventure

If you spend your Saturday hiking to the Res, it is crucial that you make sure everyone knows that you're the cultured Berry student you are. You will not let them think you spent your Saturday watching eight episodes of "New Girl" while eating Zaxby's Nibblerz Meal for the third weekend in a row. No, you've come this far, you must document your endeavors.

Here you have a few options: You could settle for a nice Eno at res pic or, if you're feeling adventurous, get a selfie with a few friends in some colorful sports bras. Caption: "Accidentally fell in 🙈🙈." Haha you rebel. You cannot stop here. You must also post pictures on Instagram.

7. The all-nighter saga

Why would you pull an all-nighter if you aren't going to Snapchat it? If you are going to stay up for a consecutive 24 hours alternating between your 10-page paper and Facebook page, people have to know of your bravery. After you initially declare that you will be pulling an all-nighter, you must include a picture of either a computer screen or food item posted every hour so your friends know you're still alive. Skipping an hourly update shows signs of weakness, and you are not weak.

8. French toast Friday

This Snapchat is worth the seven-day wait. Thinking about this French toast got you through your 10 a.m. sociology lecture, so you owe it a slot on your Snapchat story. Bonus points if artistically taken in front of Kilpatrick Common's waterfall. If you add a filter, consider becoming an art major.

9. Intramural updates

If you for some reason do not skip through all 55 seconds of your roommate's indoor soccer game snap videos, you will learn that he may have a future with ESPN in play by play calling. There are several other renditions of intramural snaps. Picture of the basketball court.

Caption: "Game at 7:30 be there." The whole student body then immediately swarms to the MAC gym. Another intramural variation is the whole team throwing up the W after the game. Clearly on their way to celebrate with Dhall ice cream cones.


10. Club Lib

Club Lib snaps are a sneaky tactic to show everyone your library location. You not only want people to pity that you're spending your Tuesday night studying just like the rest of the student population, but hope that someone out of your 65 Snapchat views will come hang out with you. Maybe the Javalanche in the corner of your picture will keep you company. Until it's gone.

11. Donuts

I don't know if it's a universal college thing or if it's just a Berry thing, but donuts are by far the most popular food posted on my Snapchat feed. Whether you swing by Dunkin' Donuts or take the left on Turner McCall to Krispy Kreme, there's an unspoken rule that you can't get donuts unless you post it on your Snapchat story. Usually just posting a picture of the box is sufficient, but if you're really feeling cute, holding up a donut in front of your BFF's eye is even better.

12. Hookem' Vikes

You know these Snapchat stories. Athletes commonly post these in the locker room before games, which is a convenient reminder that your athlete friends are about to hit the field. This a nice conclusion to their 100-second bus ride to Hendrix snap story. "Hookem' Vikes" is also utilized by spectators. Cage gym, Valhalla Stadium or baseball fields with the caption "Hookem' Vikes" lets everyone know you support your Vikings. Usually accompanied by the devil emoji. I guess since there's no Viking emoji, the devil will have to do.



13. Temperature Snapchat stories

Temperature Snapchats have a domino effect. For some reason, once one person posts the temperature on their Snapchat story, everyone will post the temperature too. Captions are either heart-eye emojis or "Kill me;" there is no in between. None of the "This weather today is mediocre" shenanigans.

Level 2 of the temperature Snapchat: 1. Get a circle of Chaco-wearing friends. 2. Add the temperature filter (obviously) 3. Caption: "Chaco weather."

Temperature Snapchats are very convenient because you don't have to open the Weather Channel App! Blessed.

14. The stalker snap of someone walking on the diagonal sidewalk between Dana and Krannert

You're being Berry and Enoing in front of McAllister, just catching up on some light "reading" as your Snapchat story would have us believe. All of a sudden you see your BFF walking toward Krannert. You obviously have to take a Snapchat video zooming in on her as she walks to get her mail. Make sure you circle her in red so there is no confusion as to whom your target is. Insert inside joke caption about BFF. Wait patiently until she views your Snapchat story. Gottem.



15. Late night Cookout/Steak N Shake/WaHo Runs

You're an adult and you want people to know that you can get a Cookout Tray with three quesadillas at 2:15 in the morning if you want to. No matter what ungodly hour you decide to consume your full day of calories in one meal, you are guaranteed to see at least four, maybe five people you know. You cannot leave unless you take a Snapchat with them and/or your Waffle House waiter. The time filter is key for these Snapchats.

16. Stall Wall Fame

Your BFF Mark's pun finally made it on the Stall Wall! How did the ocean greet the shore? It waved! Hahaha he's so funny. In this case you must take a Snapchat and circle his name to claim your fame by association. The caption "Ayyyeee" will be sufficient.

17. Obligatory Swift & Finch Latte

Latte art is a skill and it needs to be shared with the world. Plus, you have to let people know about your artsy side. I could go to the Beanery, you think, but my Snapchat story is looking a little boring today. You need the Swift & Finch aesthetic just as much as you need those three shots of espresso.


18. The Ford Building

If you live at Ford, you have to keep your princess status by posting a bi-weekly "Waking up in my castle heart eye emoji" snap. It's a little more tricky for Dana and MoLem residents because we have obviously never seen the Ford castles. So when one of us ventures down to Berry's poster child building, we have to make sure its well documented. Bonus points for a combination of the sunset and Ford building in the same snap. Triple points if you can think of a caption other than "Prettiest school on earth."


19. The Viking Filter

Everyone remembers the day the Viking filter had its Snapchat debut. It may go down in history as one of the most patriotic Berry days, only second to the day we finally got our Berry geofilter. It's like it was made for us. If you didn't post a Viking filter with a "We All Row" on your Snapchat do you even go here? Even your non-Berry friends probably sent you Viking filter Snapchats with the caption "Am I Berry yet?" Such a day for Berry pride.


Bonus:

My non-Berry friend sent me this:

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
