College-Bound Kids Say the Darndest Things on Twitter
Barbara | February 11, 2011
If you’re a college-bound student, chances are you’re a little nervous these days as you wait for news of admissions and financial aid decisions. A healthy way of dealing with that stress is taking it to Twitter and unleashing your feelings across the social media universe. That’s what hashtags are for–they link you to other people who are in the same boat as you.
Or, in the case of those people using the #collegebound hashtag, you’ll all be in the same stressed-out-of-your-mind, can’t-take-it-anymore, is-June-here-yet boat. With some, ahem, colorful language thrown in for good measure.
We use the #collegebound hashtag for our weekly Twitter chats, but are thrilled to see that others are using it for their tweets, too. Some know that others are following along, some don’t–which is a shame, because some of their thoughts just make our day.
And now, in what we hope will be a recurring post, we present you:
COLLEGE-BOUND KIDS TWEET
THE DARNDEST THINGS
Fine, we’ll just leave a message!
Hope there are some male models at her college…
Not sure what you’re saying, but we’re happy you’re happy!
College isn’t just about good grades–it’s also about good hair.
Exaggerate much?
No lack of self-esteem here.
Now there’s a misguided overachiever!
Um, maybe you should study a LOT more.
Hate to tell you this, but there’s stress at college, too.
But we’ll miss you!
That’s right! Up and at ‘em!
The next Spike Lee?
Awwww. Maybe Momma can send you a care package.
Same thing goes for Pajama Jeans...
YOU GO, GIRL!
Tweet on, college-bounders. Until next time…
