"I'm convinced Pinterest could teach me to build my dream house, with nothing but, foam wreaths, wine bottles and a glue gun."

Currently, I have 8.5K pins and 2.5K likes on Pinterest. I'm a Pinterest Addict. Any time I'm bored, I'm pinning. Involved in an awkward social interaction? The solution will always be pinning. I have a board for every occasion and I add another each and every day.

My boards range from cats, to food, to clothes, to words of inspiration. And I know I'm not alone. So if you’re a twenty-something young woman, you should have all of the following Pinterest Boards.

1. Wedding Boards

So you’re in your 20s and are totally single, with no prospects on the horizon. That doesn’t mean you can't have a wedding board that’s totally enviable. Make sure to pin the dress, the ring, the color scheme, the bridesmaid’s dresses and the food and drinks. And don’t forget the flowers! I'm partial to calla lilies, big dresses, and even bigger diamonds.

2. Hair Boards

Whether it be haircuts or colors, every girl needs to have a board of options. Personally, I like to separate hair boards into hair color, haircuts and hair styles. Recently break up with your high school sweet heart after your first semester away at college? Reference the board and chops off your locks. Pass your nursing final and deserve to reward yourself? Finally take the plunge and dye your hair ombre like you’ve been wanting to since you saw the sweet color on some chick from Pretty Little Liars.

3. Food Boards

I can't cook. Like literally at all. I can burn toast without even trying. So it only makes sense to have a food board and one dedicated to all those sweet treats I try making and end up royally ruining. Note to readers: the less ingredients, the easier it is to successfully make a food pin without ending up on the hilariously true Pinterest Fail pages.

4. Clothes Boards

Because I like to be thorough, I have a board for every occasion, including fall, winter, classy, gym and formal clothing. Although I'm a connoisseur for yoga pants, which are pinned to the gym board, a place that is only figurative, I like to think I’ll pin all these cute outfits and one day own and wear them. When in reality, I'm totally fine wearing leggings and a VS hoodie every day of my life.

5. Quote Boards

Need an Instagram caption? Or a Facebook status quote with just enough passive aggression that you should have just tagged the person in it? Or maybe you’re looking for your next tattoo quote to get? The Quote board will always be there to save the day. Word of advice, divide them into happy quotes, sad lyrics, and words that remind you to always SLAY.

6. Beauty Boards

Can't afford every new Anastasia eyeshadow palate eyebrow pencil or the ever popular Kylie Jenner Lip kits? I love to pin makeup ideas and kits, and sometimes I can even recreate some of the looks. Just pin them now, and later when you’re not a broke college student, you’ll remember that beauty comes second to brains.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
