Why Snapchat is the Best App

Can you throw up a rainbow on Instagram? I didn't think so.

Why Snapchat is the Best App

Every time I open my phone, I find my finger gravitating towards the bright yellow app sporting a white ghost. You guessed it- Snapchat. Snapchat is a great way to share your everyday life with your community. The boys at SoKrispyMedia show us how snapchat is done:

1. Dress up at the touch of your hands

Being a girl growing up on Disney princesses and theatre, I love dressing up and transforming myself into something else. With snapchat filters, you have the ability to transform yourself at any point in time. I can be barfing rainbows at any point in time.

2. Risky messages are only temporary

Are you debating professing your love to your long time crush? A text message won't do, it's too permanent. But, with snapchat, you have the ability to send your message for one second, so they don't have a permanent token of your love (if things don't end well).

3. Face swapping = life

Face swapping is taking the world by storm. You can see what you would look like with your face on your dog, and vice versa. And who wouldn't want that?

4. Geotags

Instead of texting all of your contacts about the cool place your visiting, you can just slap on a geotag to your snapchat and add it to your story, and your friends all know about your cool adventures. Greetings from New York!

5. Snapchat stories are the perfect cure to boredom

Long bus rides, Doctor waiting rooms, getting to class early. All things that need to be filled with just a small dose of entertainment. And what better than getting a glimpse into all of your friends lives?

6. Window into your friend's lives

And on that note, snapchat provides a window into the lives of you and all of your friends. You can be riding the crazy roller coaster your friend put on their story or enjoying the humor of you're funny friend pulling a prank on their teacher.

Snapchat is an excellent and entertaining form of entertainment. Whether it be an exciting video of your trip to Italy or a puppy dog face, snapchat is an revolutionary app.

Oh college, lovely, lovely college. A four-year time span that is filled with many highs and many lows. Between procrastinating on an essay that is due at midnight to getting your first library card (if you know what I mean), college is a time that you should not take for granted, yet it is also a time where you feel like your entire world is falling apart. It is a time where one day you can feel like you are on top of the world and then the next day you are 500 feet below the ground surface.
