A typical college student cannot end the week without at least one trip to Target. The process of going to Target is a whole other ball game. You enter with a plan and leave with less money in your wallet, a random coffee mug and five pairs of llama socks. A true Target fanatic does not learn from their mistakes, and the endless shopping cycle continues next week.

1. Close the laptop.

Netflix can wait. You are out of food, pencils and shampoo. It is time to go to Target.

2. Prepare the list.

Maybe if I make a list ahead of time, I won't buy things I don't need. You write down your essentials on cute stationery from, of course, Target.

3. Contemplate the list.

Do I really need five bottles of hairspray? You think on your list for at least 10 minutes before putting down your pencil.

4. Reason with yourself.

I don't know what to do anymore!You start to feel guilty for making the list in the first place.

5. Search for money.

I have two dollars. You decide to charge it to the credit card and not tell Dad.

6. Put on your shopping outfit.


I must look absolutely fabulous, but not too fabulous. You put on your favorite shopping outfit that is trendy, but not too trendy, so you look effortlessly chic.

7. Grab a friend.

My friend is as obsessed with Target as I am. Friends are there for you, especially when shopping is involved.

8. Play bumpin' tunes in the car.

It's a mini dance party in my car! You and your friend listen to the latest hit singles and jams. People stare at you while driving by, but you don't care.

9. Arrive at Target.

I am SO excited I might pee. You pull up to Target and scream a little in total excitement.

10. Walk through the doors.


I practically live here. The doors open for you. A+ service.

11. Grab a cart.

So many cart options to choose from all in my favorite color -- Target red! A little basket won't help you on this shopping trip.

12. Go to the dollar section.

Destination one: dollar section. What more do you need than cute, little 1-5 dollar items?

13. Walk through every aisle.

I can't wimp out now. You came here for a reason but forget the list. It's time to go through every aisle and grab everything

14. Wait in line.

Why does she have 20 coupons?! You wait for everyone else to go through the check out line.

15. Hand over the money.


Take everything I have! I want my cute pencil erasers. You practically beg the Target employee to take your money.

16. Leave the store super happy.

I have everything I could possibly need in this world! You leave the store satisfied with your purchases.

17. Have instant regret.

What have I done? Oh, man. You have made many mistakes and left without anything on your list.

18. ...but you love Target anyway.

It's all worth it in the end. Even though you spend most of your money and time at Target, you still love it just as much.

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Singing is something I do all day, every day. It doesn't matter where I am or who's around. If I feel like singing, I'm going to. It's probably annoying sometimes, but I don't care -- I love to sing!
