6 Reasons Why I Love To Go Grocery Shopping
WordPress

As a kid, many of us hate to go grocery shopping with our parents or grandparents. I know I did. The whole idea of just trailing behind my mom as she roamed the various aisles and debated between two products and then ended up not getting them just did not interest me at all. Now, I am the complete opposite and I have turned into my mom. Here are ten things that I love about grocery shopping.

1. Roaming Around

I love just walking around and browsing at everything.

2. Looking At Literally Every Product In The Store.

I could spend hours in a grocery store looking at products and trying to figure what the best ones are, if there are good reviews, or if there are any new products that I want to try. It is ironic how I would through a tantrum if my mom did this when I was little but not I do it.

3. It's a Getaway

Honestly, if I am feeling stressed or bored I go to the grocery store. It is so relaxing and calming to me. My time to just not really think about anything and just get things I need or sometimes things I just want. I never think of going to the grocery store as something I have to do. I want to go. I really enjoy it.

4. Getting To Choose My Foods.

I LOVE having the power and control over getting to choose my own foods and what I buy at the store. I like being able to buy healthy foods and then when I am being bad and buy ice cream I can't get mad at anyone but myself when I feel sick because I ate the whole thing in one sitting. It's great.

5. Getting Good Deals

There is nothing better than getting a good deal and saving money on food and products at a grocery store. Buy one get one free? HELL YEA!

6. It's Something To Do.

Time can go by so quickly when grocery shopping. Trust me I have spent so much more time in a grocery store than I thought until I looked at the time on my phone. Just like that, an hour had gone by so fast.

Grocery shopping can be seen as a chore or as a casual fun experience. You make it what you want.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
