What is the new "thing" now at every college campus? Having a voice... via laptop stickers. Within 30 seconds, a glance at a student's laptop can give you a clear picture of his or her preferences and priorities. New to this trend? Here is how to adhere to becoming a laptop sticker enthusiast:

1. The Token Apple Sticker*

Start with the basics. In your MacBook, iPhone or any other Apple product box, there is always a pair of white Apple logo stickers. No one ever knew where exactly where to place these. It's not even a question now if you are looking for the perfect first status symbol.

*Disclaimer: It is probably not the best idea to place an Apple sticker on a Dell or Asus. Just think about how much you would personally offend Bill Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft.

2. The School Spirit Sticker

Walk to your college bookstore. You are almost guaranteed to find a free sticker in there or find someone who could help you find one. If worst comes to worst, you can attend another freshmen summer orientation, where you find yourself coming home with a big ole' bag of college-related papers, cups, pencils, and... stickers.

3. The Typical Brand Sticker

Order a pair of overpriced sandals or a long-sleeved shirt with a whale across the whole back. If you have ever wondered why the price might be a little unreasonable, think about the other essential you receive with your purchase... A sticker to show off on your laptop.

4. The Fangirl Sticker

If you could kiss any superstar right now, whether is be an actor, musician, athlete, or... an animated character, invest in their face (on a sticker). Brand them and place them on your laptop to let everyone know they are yours, and yours only.

5. The Sister Sticker

The best place for the sticker of your letters you got from your big is on your laptop for your whole college campus to see. There is an unspoken rule in every sorority to show off your letters whenever you possibly can. We are proud of the family we have become a part of. We are grateful for the privilege of getting to run home to that special place on bid day. G.D.I.? Just roll your eyes and ignore this.

6. The Most Important Sticker

Think about the reason you are here on Earth. Think about the reason you wake up everyday. Find a sticker for Him and place it on your laptop. Any inspirational sticker that satisfies you will suffice for what you believe in!

This trend is so popular because it is cheap. Chief Marketing Officer of the sticker company, Redbubble, sums this up perfectly in stating, “Stickers are a simple and flexible way for people to express their personal style.” So get sticking!
