PEXELS

If you're in college, you have probably used or heard of Venmo.

If you haven't, here is your chance to learn all that you need to know about the best invention ever. Venmo is a way to pay your friends through a simple app. There isn't a charge for the transaction, there is a quick turn around when it comes to the money going into your account, and it takes 2 seconds to send your friend some money for the Uber you just split.

These 5 things are the essential reasons why Venmo is the best invention for every college student.

1. Splitting the check has never been easier.

When the waiter asks if your together or separate, you will never have to stutter about it again. Simply take one check, send a Venmo request for their meal and move on. It has never been easier.

2. Paying bills is easy as pie.

My roommates and I have tons of bills. Instead of trying to get cash or checks, I send a Venmo request for the amount and they send it over. I transfer it to my account and pay the bill in seconds. Easy as pie!

3. Paying dues for an organization is quick and easy.

How many college students carry cash or checkbooks with them? Slim to none. Being able to pay your dues for your organizations through an app?! So quick. So easy.

4. Sharing the Uber is easy, peasy, lemon squeezy.

It's annoying to pick a person to pay for the Uber. With Venmo, your friends and you can share Ubers without the stress of taking turns. Send that request and move on! Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy.

5. What's easier than sending gas money without a fee?

Nothing. Going on a trip and can't decide who is going to drive? Make it easy by sending a Venmo request for gas money. Your friend's don't have to pay the petty fee from the ATM or give you an IOU for the next trip. Honestly, what's easier?


I kid you not, this is the best app for college students. It makes your life so much easier and every 18-23 year old needs to get it as soon as possible. I promise there is no better way to share money with your friends! Try it out!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
