41 Thoughts While Instagram Scrolling

I would like to think of myself as a pretty nonjudgmental individual. I am fully aware that everyone in this world is, or in my opinions should be, different. We all have different tastes in style, music, art, etc. I feel as if the differences amongst us is what makes each day a guessing game- you never know what crazy outfit you may see on the street or what new song lyric may catch your attention while driving in the car. Usually, I like to take things as they are, and continue on without asking any questions. My previous ‘usually’ tends to exclude the few times of the day I spend scrolling through my Instagram feed.

41 Thoughts While Scrolling Through Instagram

  1. Where are these 15 year olds learning how to apply their makeup? I am 21 and barely know how to apply mascara let alone know how to contour my face, blend four different eyeshadows, or highlight my eyes.
  2. Aww, your family is so cute. Why doesn’t my family take super cute family photos?
  3. Okay, so it looks ‘candid’, but we all know it isn’t. So really, who did you hand the camera off to saying, “Here take this, I’m going to pretend like I’m not looking”..
  4. Why did you caption the location as Chipotle? You are clearly at a beach. I don’t get it.
  5. Oh hey, another selfie of your boobs. No wonder you get 200 likes.
  6. YOU GOT BACK TOGETHER, AGAIN?!?! I swear you two break up every week.
  7. Hey, that’s my shirt.
  8. I didn’t even know you two knew each other. This is weird. How do you know each other?
  9. WHERE IS THAT?!? I need to vacation there.
  10. Oh wow, sick invite.
  11. Oww Oww, my best friend is gorgeous. Like* comment*
  12. You always like my posts, so it’s only fair for me to like yours.
  13. You look so freaking great in that outfit. I love it. I could never pull that off, but you kill it!
  14. Nice pose, who do you think you are, Candice Swanepoel?
  15. 417 likes, are you joking me?!?!
  16. You’re 17 and your parents let you out of the house in that outfit?
  17. Tim Riggins can’t be your MCM because he’s my future husband, sorry.
  18. Wow, you lost a lot of weight. You look so good. Go you, I’m so happy for you.
  19. Okay wow that caption is way too long and totally unnecessary so Im just going to scroll right on through to the next one.
  20. I can’t get enough of these adorable dog accounts.
  21. If I see that quote one more time..
  22. Oh hey, look it's you and your alcohol and your duck lips, what’s new?
  23. Awh, I really miss you. Im going to text you right now.
  24. Ahh, you got engaged! Wow that is so exciting! So much love.
  25. Can we please stop with the Boomerangs? They’re cool until they don’t stop repeating. They should probably come with a warning, “May Cause Seizures”
  26. Oh gosh, look at that high school throwback. laughs hysterically* What a great stage in life.
  27. I wonder what you look like without any makeup on.
  28. That baby is adorable. I hope my babies are that perfect.
  29. Oh no, another cancer post. Those always hit the heart. I should probably say a quick prayer.
  30. How can a person be so beautiful? I should probably start wearing a bag on my head.
  31. #please #stop #hashtagging #every #word #in #the #English #vocabulary
  32. Wow, your little brother is growing up so fast. I feel so old
  33. This photo doesn’t have many likes, so I’m going to be a good samaritan and give it one
  34. Free donuts on campus?!? I wish I were showered and dressed. Dang it.
  35. How can one be so talented? I want to be you.
  36. Wow, that is a huge accomplishment. That’s so awesome. Go you
  37. You wake up looking that good?!?
  38. Oh hey, choker necklaces are back in. I figured it out after every girl took a selfie with a choker, pigtail braids, and straight face pose. Original.
  39. … Where is the originality anymore?
  40. I wonder what people think about my photos.
  41. I should probably get off Instagram an get out of bed already.

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?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

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.
