"Summertime and the living is easy."

Caption This

It's summertime, and not only does your skin get darker and constantly smell like sunscreen, your Instagram is sure to display it. Instagram is among the most popular ways to capture a moment and share it with friends, all while adding a unique filter. Not only does thought go into the picture posted, the caption is usually crafted just as much. What goes into an Instagram caption, you might ask (as if you need me to tell you)?

Usually, Instagram captions either describe the picture or simply state a quote or song lyric they love. Anyway, here are some captions I believe I'll see many times while scrolling through my Instagram feed.

"It's 5:00 somewhere."

The perfect excuse to be drinking, even if it's 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Basically this says, "I know it's a little early for my margarita, but in my head, I am on a beach and it's 5 o'clock, so don't judge me"

"Summertime and the living is easy."

No one has to know that you're secretly taking 12 hours of summer courses, and that you have a retail job. This caption with a picture of you at the pool or on the lake will have everyone thinking you're living up the summer life.

"Sunny and 75."

Who doesn't love a good, country, warm weather anthem? This caption goes perfectly with a picture of you and your sweetie on the beach or at the pool. People will see your Instagram and visions of warm weather and bikinis will dance through their heads.

"Where bare feet and sandy toes rule."

If you use this caption with the inevitable picture of your feet halfway in the water, please make sure you recently got a pedicure. We suggest bright pinks, oranges and purple polishes on the toes so they stand out with your Reyes filter.

"Beachin.'"

Self Explanatory. The only people who don't love the beach are people who are actually just sad that they're not on the beach. True facts.

"Everything is hotter when the sun goes down."

Hint, hint. Wink, wink. Nudge, nudge. The best way to tell your Instagram followers that some serious late night, beach shenanigans are about to happen--all under the guise of a Kenny Chesney song.

I'm not saying that using one of these captions on your picture will gain you more likes, but then again, I might be. If you used one of these captions for your picture, good for you! Chances are, I did too!

    Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

    "Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

    We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

    In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

    For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
