4 Pinterest Boards Your Boyfriend Should Never See

There are few people who do not understand the obsessive addiction that is Pinterest. When everything that you could ever want is curated onto one website, it is difficult to not become addicted. Girls pin everything from food to wedding ideas to sorority crafts to funny memes. For any need or want, there is a Pinterest board out there somewhere.

In general, boys don't understand Pinterest. It truly baffles them. Honestly, there are quite a few things that you will find on your Pinterest boards that your boyfriend really should not see. Here are a few Pinterest staples that you should keep hidden from you boy at all costs.


Anything and Everything to do with Weddings

Every girl's favorite board, and every boyfriend's worst nightmare. Not only does a wedding board say "commitment" in big, bold letters, it also sets future wedding expectations extremely high. It would benefit both you and your boyfriend if he doesn't find out you have every detail of your wedding planned down to the font style of the Save the Date cards. There is a possibility it could cause him to hyperventilate and/or run screaming in the other direction. The less he knows about your wedding board right now, the more likely it probably is that you will get to plan that dream wedding with him.


All Pins on a Board with a Title Along the Lines of "Maybe, Baby!"


A bit self explanatory but this type of board, like the wedding board, screams "I want to settle down" to a boy. All of the baby name lists, baby/family picture ideas, birth announcement templates, and shower ideas could possibly cause your boyfriend to pass out cold. If he knew about the existence of this board, he would not think of this in simple terms. He would take this as an immediate desire to have babies. And lots of them. And take black and white pictures of their feet. For now, keep all of those adorable ideas to yourself.


Pins of Contouring Tips and Tutorials

If your boyfriend saw the specific steps it takes to make your cheekbones look on point, he would be extremely disturbed. Makeup routines, like Pinterest, really baffle boys. They don't understand, and most likely never will, which is probably for the best. And do you really want him to know how you make your face look so fabulous? Of course not. So keep the mystery alive, and don't let him find out about the 100 different contouring tutorials you have collected. Maybe she's born with it, maybe she found it on Pinterest.


Cute Date Ideas Board


Most of the date ideas you will find on Pinterest are absolutely adorable, but slightly corny and unrealistic. You are well aware that your boyfriend will never, ever want to do anything like "Rake a pile of leaves and then jump in them" or do anything involving Hobby Lobby and picking out fall and Christmas decor. But if he sees you pinned any of that stuff, he might feel like you want to actually do them and feel bad that you haven't.

To avoid making him feel inadequate, keep the cutesy fall date dreams to yourself. You and I both know you don't actually want to bake cinnamon apple scones with your significant other.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
