The anonymous collective behind the Facebook page NYUSnaps has given outsiders a pretty awesome look into the fantastic, cosmopolitan, and downright bizarre experience of being an NYU student. We combed through the recent submissions — all provided by current undergrads — to find the crème de la crème. Did we mention they also have an anonymousconfessions page, memes page and even a scandalous Gossip Girl-esque page? Combined with the Snapchats to follow, this social media tour de force is proof that NYU students are among the luckiest in the world.
Without further ado….
They live in Greenwich Village, at the most prestigious address in the world.
Despite the upper class existence, they’re not too snooty to engage in the lowly pleasures of Basic Bitch Season.
…yeah
In fact, they really know how to enjoy life’s little pleasures.
(Read: Pokemon on Gameboy Color on a crisp autumn afternoon in Washington Square Park)
But they also understand life’s heartbreaks…
…and are detectives in their free time.
Of course, they can appreciate the finer things too, like modern art… and stuff like that.
Don’t forget NYC’s rich and famous. They get to schmooze with local celebs on the reg.
And by schmooze, we mean take incognito Snaps of local celebs. We can’t actually confirm this is Jason Lee. Minor details.
OK, this one’s legit. Definitely Rebel Wilson.
Casual classmate.
This one too. Dexter. Basically, celebs abound.
But they don’t take anything for granted. They live in the greatest food city on the planet and they take full advantage.
They know that minor distractions should never get in the way of exams.
Unless they bring their pets to the library.
They know that things tend to get a little OOC around Halloween…
So they’ll go to literally any lengths to get the perfect costume…
…and sometimes so cute that they can’t even.
…but that this type of behavior is also a totally normal occurrence.
This is a real photo from Bobst Library. No f*cks given.
They know how to multitask to get shit done.
They might be a little bit paranoid, but that’s just good practice in a big city like NYC.
They know that some threats are digital, and that not every NYC wifi network is to be trusted.
And speaking of paranoia, they definitely know how to stay safe when ebola hits.
………………
And they know that ebola’s not the only threat in town, and they know how to make STD prevention fun: just pretend HPV is a Pokemon character!
They know that sometimes math class needs to chill because there are other important things to do:
And that lecture notes can relax because there’s simply other priorities in life.
And that the best classes are the most thought-provoking.
And that after all that rigorous coursework, everyone needs a break.
Because even when shit gets really, really weird at NYU…
…and when New Yorkers get really mean….
…and even when disaster strikes…
…no matter how unexpected…
…that at the end of the day, it’s all worth it for the best study break views on the planet.
Because it truly doesn’t get any better than that.
Even on gloomy days.
Especially with all these treats.
And views like this.
Can we transfer now?
