4 Signs You're A Target Addict

It's possibly the most relatable issue in this century.

The love-hate relationship between a shopper and Target is one that can make or break your wallet, and if not watched carefully, can quickly get out of control. Here are some signs you might need to step on the breaks a bit.

1) If you go in to buy "one thing" and come out broke

Going in for one item and walking out with one full bag is alright. But if you head toward check out with a full cart and a not-nearly full enough wallet, it may be wise to take some time apart from your beloved Target. After all, you have to make sure the relationship is a healthy one!

2) If you convince yourself you need everything you're tossing into your cart as you shop

No, you don't need a new blender.

3) If literally everything you own is from Target

You're not a true Target addict until you look like a walking Target add, or walk into the store wearing the exact outfit displayed on the mannequin in front of you.

4) If you pronounce it "Tarjay"

Once you've reached this point, you really are a lost cause.

Don't beat yourself up too much

I, myself, am a Target addict. I mean, who doesn't love a store that sells things ranging from Apple products to produce? It may be the greatest retail store of our century. Just don't let it get too out of hand (I don't think they have rehab for these kinds of addictions.)

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!

Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
