At some point or another, we've all bee involved in a group chat. Sometimes they are ongoing with family members or high school best friends, and other times they might be for a group project. These group chats come in all shapes and sizes, and there is for sure never a dull moment. So below will be some thoughts I've personally had while being in a group chat at least once in my life.

1. "Thank god for Katrina because she always has the details about what's going on at home."

If it wasn't for girls like her, how would I ever know about the details of home? There's always someone who is going to know exactly what you're missing. Whoever Katrina may be for you, you're grateful to the person in the group chat for always keeping you up to speed on what you're missing.

2. "Why did they just ignore me?"

There's probably been a time where texts have been sent, but yours seemed to somehow fall through the cracks? It might be a funny joke you told or a life or death question you asked and no one responds. It's like no one cared enough to answer!

3. "Why can't I type fast enough?"

Let's face it. When something big is going on, our fingers cannot move quick enough towards that send button. It's almost as if someone's fingers were lighting bolts when they're sending messages during an important time.

4. "Can my phone stop going off for one second please?"

It could be the middle of the night or right in the middle of your midterm exam and the group chat will not stop pinging your phone. You don't want to hear your phone going off all the time, but if it's on Do Not Disturb, you could be missing something super important.

5. "I wish I was home with my friends instead of staying at college for break."

The intense FOMO (fear of missing out) was real this Easter break when a lot of my friends got to go home and spend time with each other. It's hard to see the group organize plans with you not involved.

6. "I'm going to change the group chat name."

Whether it's an inside joke or you're just trying to be funny, we've all changed the group chat at some point or another.

7. "How could I live without these people?"

The truth is, you probably can't and that's okay. Whether these people live down the hall from you or you're all studying in separate states, our phones keep us more connected than ever and we're lucky we have something as advanced as this to keep us all connected!
