7 Reasons Why I Watch 'Fixer Upper'
www.gospelherald.com

"Fixer Upper" is not like any other HGTV show. They have brought a different type of dynamic to this channel. They act real. Unlike many of the other TV hosts, they seem real. It doesn't feel like they are reading a script and it's like you are actually watching the real Chip and Joanna Gaines on TV. I don't only just watch the show because of how amazing the interior designs or the constructions of the houses but rather I watch it because of Chip and Joanna. Here are the reasons why I watch Fixer Upper:

1. Their relationship


They are literally relationship goals! When you watch the show it is as if you are actually seeing their relationship and not something that is fake or scripted. Plus you can't write some of the things Chip says.

2. Their children

They have made some of the most beautiful human beings on the planet with their sun-kissed hair, golden tan, light freckles and I don't feel weird saying that. Clearly I have watched this show way too many times. Also, they say some of the cutest things on the show.

3. Their values

You can see their values when you watch the show. For example, how they always make a way to eat dinner together as a family no matter what. It's amazing to see their Christian values slowly seep through the show, but it is not overpowering that it puts you off. It's refreshing to see a Christian based family on a well-known TV channel. Also, if you haven't seen Joanna's testimony then you should really watch it. Here is the link.


4. They are funny

I love how every time the show starts it begins with a blooper and it never fails to make me laugh. The things Chip says are unreal and sometimes I don't know how Joanna deals with him. Especially the time he ran through the wall just because and probably hurt himself, but said it was awesome.


5. Shiplap

Shiplap over shiplap it is one of Joanna's core pieces when designing a house and I love it. I honestly never get tired of it. It's something that I have never seen in houses from where I am from. I love the idea of exposing your house and seeing what is underneath and then making it a decoration.


6. The farmhouse

Is it weird to be in love with this house? Because I am! I love the whole story behind the farmhouse and the design. Also the fact that is has 40 acres of land is amazing. I just want to go to Waco, Texas just to see this house and actually see the layout of the house because it's still a mystery to me.

7. The design

Some people criticize Joanna how she does the same design over and over again and I beg to differ. Yes, she does use shiplap and distressed wood often, but that is her design. It's the type of design she likes. What makes her different from the other TV designers is she always makes it personal to the client. She includes that one thing that speaks to the client.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

There have been many lessons learned.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
