22 Reasons Why IKEA Is The Best
Cool Bananas

Ikea has taken the world by storm through its spunky designs and practical products! Here are 22 reasons why Ikea is literally the best!


1. You can never miss it.

What other store is in a massive blue and yellow building?

2. The food is as good as the furniture.

Seriously, the meatballs are heavenly!

3. They create serious "house goals."

Who else can put a bedroom, kitchen, dining room, bathroom, and living room in 391 square feet?

4. There is endless amounts of stuff.

You'll always find what you need, and you will always find what you don't need.

5. Everything is reasonably priced!

Why yes, I do need 30 candles for $2.99.

6. All of their products are on Pinterest.

"Jane Doe created a new board, Ikea Home Makeover."

7. It will turn you into a complete DIY king/queen.

Be careful! It can become addicting!

8. Everything is self-service.

Yes, you have to get it from the shelf. Yes, you have to assemble it when you get home.

9. All products come with easy instructions for assembly.

No words! Just pictures!

10. Transporting everything is no biggie.

Everything is packed into flat boxes to make packing your trunk a breeze!

11. You can test everything!

DO NOT TOUCH DISPLAYS! Ikea wants you to touch, sit, and even nap on the displays!

12. They are always changing the layout of the store.

The walls even move!

13. If you ever get lost, just follow the arrows on the main walkway.

Turn right in 6.5 feet.

14. There is a reason the walkway is never straight for very long.

There is a sharp turn every 50 feet to make sure you never get bored.

15. If you do get bored, just watch other customers.

No matter where you are, there are always couples arguing.

16. Every product has the most unique name.

Different product categories are named after Swedish names, towns, or islands. This system was devised by Ikea's creator, who was dyslexic and had trouble memorizing product numbers.

17. The bathrooms are always spotless!

You won't want to sprinkle when you tinkle...

18. It is family oriented.

They even have a free daycare!

19. You can play an epic game of hide-and-seek.

Ready or not, here I come!

20. It is the Disney World of furniture.

Welcome to the happiest place on Earth!

21. They care about the environment.

All of Ikea's products only use 1 percent of the world's commercial wood supply. Some stores even have gardens planted on the roof to help heat and cool the building more efficiently!

22. There is something for everyone!

Yes, you too!

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.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
