20 Ways You Know You're A HGTV Junkie

HGTV. Four letters, so much meaning. HGTV stands for Home and Garden TV. But for us HGTV junkies (those who watch daily, or never switch channels), these four letters have so much more meaning. So, here’s to wood-floors, open-concepts, marble countertops and spa-like bathrooms!

20 Ways You Know You’re an HGTV Junkie (as told by one):

1. You watch every show. There literally isn’t one you won’t watch, and when someone asks you your favorite, you honestly can’t tell them.


2. BUT, if you absolutely had to choose, it’d definitely be "Fixer Upper." Chip and Joanna Gaines are just #relationshipgoals.


3. Oh, and you literally want EVERY single house that they fix. Joanna is AMAZING. But you know it will probably never happen, so you just pin everything and hope that someday your house will look like that.


4. HGTV is your default channel, your "default browser." It's literally on 24/7 and you never really need to change the channel. It even makes good background noise.

5. And if someone dares ask you if they can channel -- wait, there's other channels?!


6. And even when you're not near the TV, you've always got HGTV Magazine nearby, ready to keep you company.

7. That way, you can tab all the pages of what you love, and get serious #inspo for your future home.

8. These words have whole new meanings for you: "hardwood," "marble," "open-concept," "move-in-ready," "flow," and "office-space," They're basically a regular part of your vocabulary now.

9. That bathroom! The closet! And don't even get me started on the kitchen...I NEED ALL OF IT.

10. Hardwood floors? Check. (Mainly so you can do this).

11. A tub you can soak in? Absolutely. (Does Richard Gere come with it?!)


12. Immaculate kitchen complete with marble/granite/quartz countertops?! For sure.

13. Hoping it looks something like this...

14. OK, back to the shows.

15. "House Hunters" makes you want to move. Especially "House Hunters International"...

16. You have this reaction when you see the houses on "Flip or Flop" for the first time before they've been "flipped." (And the prices of the houses, ouch!)


17. David and Hillarey, and Todd and Jillian bickering make you want to pull your hair out. But you love them anyway and are secretly rooting for one of them to win.

18. You can tell Drew and Jonathan Scott apart from one another, no problem. They're basically your brothers too...

19. You're constantly coming up with new ideas for re-decorating or re-arranging everything in your home/apartment/dorm and you can't stop.

20. Nope, never.


You know why? Because my name is Katie and I'm an HGTV junkie, and probably always will be.

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?

2013
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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.
