What Your Instagram Bio Says About You

The bio is the window to the soul.

Instagram is the place to share your life in photographs, and while social media isn't full of substance, it's still a great place to show some creativity. What's just as important as the photos you post is your bio. You know, that little blurb that tells everyone who you are and what you're about. There's a few routes you can take to get the perfect bio made for you.


An inspirational quote.

You find the most profound quote that perfectly describes your life, and whenever someone taps to your profile, they'll see you are a well-read, insightful individual... or you've been really in your feels lately and found the perfect quote on Pinterest.

Your VSCO link.

You are ~artsy~ and you're totally into photography. Your VSCO is sort of like the extended cut of your Instagram. Every photo on your profile is on preset C1 and you're all about aesthetics.

"Hometown|College|Sorority."

Oh you know you've seen this one, or this is your bio right now. And why not? It's short, sweet, to the point, and it eliminates any questions. "Where is she from?" Look at the bio. "I wonder where she goes to school?" Look at the bio. "Is she in a sorority?" Look. at. the. bio.

The student athlete.

You're on the grind and working day in and day out, you deserve a little humble brag. Think about those student athlete memes and put that in your Instagram bio. The more emojis, the more dedication you have.

"Public Figure."

You're an Instagram model, "fitness guru" or blogger. You've racked up those followers and thanks to the new update, you can tell the world (well, you can tell Instagram) that you're a pretty big deal.

Emoji's.

They say a picture's worth a thousand words... so an Emoji must be worth even more. Who has time for quotes or descriptions, just throw in a few of these bad boys to really get your message across. Are you basic? Drop the avocado emoji. Do you treat yo self with some McDonald's regularly? The french fries emoji is perfect! Do you only attract good vibes? Try out the sunflower emoji and maybe throw in the crystal ball.

No bio at all.

What a maverick move. You don't have to explain yourself in a 140 character slot, people will figure it out on your own. It is only Instagram after all...

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.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
