11 Signs You Might Have A Dog Obsession

They're furry. They're cuddly. They love you. They think you are the best thing in the whole entire world (besides the scraps they get from the table at dinner, of course). And they're always there for you. Who doesn't love dogs? Personally, I love my two dogs very much. Since being away at college, I've come to realize how much my dogs mean to me. When you don't see a dog every day and when you don't get puppy kisses and cuddles every day, you start to realize how much you miss it! Here are 11 signs that may mean that you are slightly obsessed with your dog, like me. Hey, it's not a bad thing!

1. You put their comfort over your own.

Here's the situation: You're sleeping on the couch. You want to put the blanket over you more because your legs are cold. But your dog is on top of the blanket, snoring peacefully, and you can't move the blanket without waking him up. Guess you're just going to have to deal with cold legs.

2. You tell your dogs where you're going every time you leave the house.

Not sure if they actually understand, but maybe they can!

3. You're camera roll on your phone is filled with pictures of your dog.

"Aww, look how cute he is! Let me take a picture!"

4. You celebrate their birthday.

Everyone deserves to be celebrated!

5. You are used to only having a small place to sleep in your bed because they take up all the room.

But you wouldn't have it any other way.

6. You've gotten emotional when leaving your dog for a while.

Whether you're going on vacation or leaving for college, you're not ashamed to admit that you've shed a tear over not being able to see your furry friend for an extended amount of time.

7. You've tried to talk to your dog on the phone before.

"Mom, hold the phone up to Murphy's ear!"

"Here he is..."

"Hey buddy!"

8. You've thought about getting them a Friendship Collar.

I recently found out about these, and I think they are the coolest things ever.

9. You talk about your dog all the time.

Sorry, not sorry.

10. You want to take them everywhere with you.

And sometimes you do. Even restaurants.

11. You consider your dogs to be some of your very best friends.

And they consider you to be theirs as well.

I can definitely say that a world without dogs is a world I never want to experience.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!
