The Top 5 Texting Faces

Unless you are a robot, you are not emotionless when you text.

The Top 5 Texting Faces

Honestly, texting has slightly contributed to my generation’s inability to talk face-to-face, but we still do all right, given the circumstances. Regardless of who you happen to be, I know you text. It’s a normal thing nowadays. Group messages, individual messages and group messages without that one person you don’t like from the original group message are all a normal part of life. While you are texting, think about the faces you make. If you think you are emotionless while texting, remember that screenshot your best friend sent you last week. Here are a few examples of the "texting faces."


1. I am in a public place, but I must awkwardly smile, but not too much.

We've all been there. It's hard contain the laughter that would have happened had we been in our bed with our Netflix.


2. Why did his name appear on my phone?

Taylor Swift might write a song about it for us. But really, why? I am at Five Guys stuffing my face with fries, and you decide to say "Hey." What does this mean?

3. I look good today, so let's text everyone.

You're bored and need plans. After all, you look bomb today, and it would be a shame to waste a cute outfit. Not to mention, your hair looks fabulous. Then you think, well maybe I can go be hipster at a coffee shop. Maybe I'll meet a cute boy. No. No. No. Text everyone so you aren't getting coffee alone. Fake hipster is not cool.

4. I'm over it.

You are having a conversation with your friend about literally the same thing since forever. Same complaints, new words. Like boo, I love you but we gotta find some new issues. It's been approximately three years. Get it together. Or text someone else about it every once in a while.

5. This is the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life.

Thank the group message that keeps you going in the middle of the week. It is the most important thing on a late Wednesday night. You have a 9 a.m. test and are on the verge of a breakdown, but your best friends have the world's best conversation. So you just laugh hysterically, instead.


So yes. You do indeed make different faces when you text. If you're still in denial, have someone follow you around with a camera. Because I promise, I've seen you walking around on your phone in Wal-Mart. It's funny. Thank the group messages and the best friends, because they are the happy texting faces. Other humans? Well, hopefully you learn how to make the person on the receiving end smile. If you can't, maybe you shouldn't be texting this conversation in the first place. Much love!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
