If you're a shopaholic, you know the struggles we face on the daily. Sale? We're there. No sale? We're still there. Shopping is our therapy and we can't help but go to the mall every weekend and blow our pay checks.

Here are 11 things all shopaholics do:

1) You just got paid, why not go to the mall?

Getting paid is your favorite part of the week. Those pair of shoes you've been eyeing, why not get them now? You've worked hard for that paycheck, you deserve it!

2) A limited edition makeup palette just got released...

You already have 10 palettes, but this one is limited edition. You wouldn't want it to sell out!

3) You bought a sweater that you've only worn once.

You cannot be an outfit repeater.

4. The new year rolls around and you say you're going to "save" your money.

You need to save my money, you need to save my money. *Sees new purse on display* Better luck next year.

5. Feeling like it's Christmas when your online packages arrive.

Those 3-5 business days took forever!

6. Buying new clothes when your closet is full.

Everything you have feels so outdated! And that's a good enough excuse to buy some new pieces.

7. You love that jacket, so you need it in every color.

It only makes sense to get something you love in every color, right?

8. You'll find ANY excuse to go to the mall

Oooh, Victoria's Secret is having a sale!

9. Shopping is your therapy

Sad? Go shopping. Mad? Go shopping. Confused? Go shopping!!

10. You buy things that you absolutely don't need

You could really use this pair of designer gloves, cause you know, they're designer.

11. Even if you're too lazy to go out shopping, you always find a way

Online shopping, anyone? Spending money from the comfort of your bed!

Let's face it, we shopaholics need serious help. But do we want it? Not really. Just keep on shopping!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

1991
Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
