You're now in college. At last, you're free to do anything you
want your parents have been restricting you to do when you were in high school.
Now, you can have all the liberty to have all the party and booze, like the
ones you see in the movies. But most of all, don't forget that college life is
also about studying and learning new and worthwhile stuffs, too.
Aside from that, college life can also be confusing and
challenging at the same time. It can be difficult, at first, to find your
footing in a social way. Thanks to technology, you can easily touch the World
Wide Web with your own hands. Here is a collection of apps that will surely
kick start your college social life.
Don't be
the only person in class who isn't updated with the world events. Use Twitter to keep
yourself in the loop in both the academic and social aspects of your college
life. In today's contemporary classrooms, you may even be asked to participate
in class discussions via Twitter.
Are you
someone whose attempting the long-distance relationship course? Kudos to you
because that's not a small task to deal with. Relationship app Between can help you ease the separation anxiety by letting you send
messages, voicemails, memos, and photos. A private timeline makes it easy to
reminisce about the good old days with your significant other or loved one(s).
Video
interviews are not going away any time soon -- so you might as well get a heads
up now. Microsoft's Skype is
a reliable way to connect with faraway family and friends via text, voice, and
of course -- video.
LinkedIn and all
its nifty features makes connections a breeze -- for better or worse, college
is a time of both personal and professional connections.
The LinkedIn
app is available for free on the Internet, of course, but you can also get it
for free for iOS and Android devices.
These
days, anyone with an Instagram account can call themselves an amateur
photographer of sorts. But with these two apps, you can even make more
beautiful pictures to put on your blog or social media accounts. Afterlight is an
app that has lots of shape, formatting, and filters to make your pictures
really beautiful. And Over is an
amazing app that lets you put text on your pictures. What makes these two photo
apps stand out specifically are that they are super sleek and classy, so really
nothing that you do to your photos with both of them makes your pictures ten
times better looking. Of course, these are more for your average Facebook/Insta
use and not for professional photography per say, but anyone of any expertise can
use them to make pictures really nice. With these apps, you won't be able to
stop editing.
Let's face it, when you
graduate into the real world, you're not going to have all your friends living
within a mile radius for you to hang out, party, or go to football games with.
So realistically, if you are new to the place or the city, or even just
interning for a couple of months somewhere, it helps to join a group who has
similar interests or backgrounds. And that may sound terrifying, or
Tinder-esque, but the whole point is to find an entire group of people to hang
out with and get to know. So maybe consider taking a buddy with you, or ask
around about activities, but give it a try so you'll get used to your new home.
