6 Unrealistic Expectations Pinterest Has Given Me
The Street

Pinterest has been around since 2010 giving people everywhere unrealistic expectations about practically everything under the sun. From crafting perfectly painted coolers to your dream wedding dress or your dream mansion. Pinterest has it all.

1. Becoming a crafting goddess

Yes, Pinterest taught me to paint canvases, make bracelets, sew, and envision beautiful creations; although, sometimes those things fail miserably. Have you ever tried to free-hand paint an entire cooler? Don't do it to yourself (or at least not overnight).

2. Finding a dream home

If Pinterest were a real estate agent, they would be the best in the business. They find the perfect small apartment fully furnished to a cottage style house, or even a mansion on water. They allow you to dream big, find something you love without breaking the bank by re-pinning it and just dreaming of those walk-in closets, fireplaces, pools, lake house in the backyard, and all of the luxuries that aren't quite in that college girl budget.


3. Chef Master

Have you ever tried out a Pinterest recipe? Did it work out perfectly for you? Yes? Save it. Print it. Frame it. That doesn't happen too often when one tries to create something from the Perfect Princess Printer, but when it does it is flawless and delicious.


4. To Be or Not To Be: Philosophical

Quotes from the days of Aristotle, authors like Hemingway, lyrics from your favorite songs, and unknown writers who share their words with the world. If only we could all be like those writers and share our views with the world.


5. Perfect Weight. Perfect Face. Perfect Abs.

Just remember, Perfect Princess Pinterest has all of those things. Don't get too jealous.


6. Puppies

Who doesn't love puppies? Pinterest has the most perfect Golden Retrievers, Labs, little dogs, big dogs, fluffy puppies, and puppies playing with tennis balls. Who doesn't just want a lap full of puppies?


Now, it's time to get back to Pinterest and re-pin those dream kitchens, perfectly painted canvases, puppies, and everything that Princess Pinterest has to offer.

If Disney Princesses Went To Benedictine College

They would fit right in

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning. No matter how functionally dysfunctional your friend group may be, if you're anything like me, you feel absolutely blessed to have found such a wonderful group of humans to call "your people." Here is what your friend group might look like if they were Disney princesses (and that wasn't just a thing you all pretended in your heads):
