How To Get The Most Out Of Pinterest

Pinterest is a girl’s best friend. You might be thinking all there is to this app is DIY crafts, you are wrong. The lifestyle app is a secrete weapon for making every part of your life seem perfect. Pinterest is a site made for sharing hacks and tips about improving your lifestyle from people who seem like they have their stuff together.

You can search literally any topic that you feel you need help or inspiration in, say hair styles or organization hacks; and Pinterest will give you hundreds of results. Then you can create a collection of pins that you admire, called boards. I have a dream wedding and a house goals board, just to name a few. Pinterest is amazing and can really help you in every aspect of life no matter your age or stage of life.

Here are some of my favorite things to get inspired by on Pinterest.

Style

Searching for trends on Pinterest makes me so happy. From hair to nails to clothes, this app opens your eyes to anything and everything fashion. Fashion bloggers share so many tips and they are really easy to recreate. Pinterest can help you find outfits when it comes to job interviews and even weddings. There’s so many hair styles to try out from braids to buns. Pinterest is a life saver and your friends will be jealous of how good you look.

Fitness

Work out pins will actually make you inspired to exercise. Not only can you search what the fitness experts are wearing, but they reveal their tips on the app and give you major fitspiration. There are so many different workout plans for anything that you want to do, from cardio to yoga. Pinterest makes it really easy to want to put on sneakers and exercise, even if it’s just some squats in your house.

Food

It is shocking how many recipes you can make using avocado. Seriously, the recipes on Pinterest look ridiculously delicious, and if you try them you’ll find out they aren't that hard to make. You can find inspiration for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert, snacks, and drinks on this app. Also, it could teach you how to eat healthier and give you insight about popular trends like vegan, gluten free, or paleo diets.

Home decor

I like to look at the home trends on Pinterest and imagine what my dream house would look like. There are amazing mansions to look at, and beautiful kitchens and bathrooms. But until then, you can pin your favorite storage and organization tricks that you would never have thought of on your own. Also Pinterest is the destination for inspiration if you want to redecorate your room because there’s millions of pins that you can recreate and make Urban Outfitters inspired DIYs for your room.

Inspiration

Aside from the topics I just mentioned, there are so many other things to discover on the app that you probably never even considered important. Some of these things can change your life. I started doing things I heard about on Pinterest like drinking more water, meditating, and reading because of some blog posts I had read on the app. I didn't know what I was missing and thanks to Pinterest, I have incorporated so many healthy and fun things into my life.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
