20 Ways You Know You're A HGTV Junkie

HGTV. Four letters, so much meaning. HGTV stands for Home and Garden TV. But for us HGTV junkies (those who watch daily, or never switch channels), these four letters have so much more meaning. So, here’s to wood-floors, open-concepts, marble countertops and spa-like bathrooms!

20 Ways You Know You’re an HGTV Junkie (as told by one):

1. You watch every show. There literally isn’t one you won’t watch, and when someone asks you your favorite, you honestly can’t tell them.


2. BUT, if you absolutely had to choose, it’d definitely be "Fixer Upper." Chip and Joanna Gaines are just #relationshipgoals.


3. Oh, and you literally want EVERY single house that they fix. Joanna is AMAZING. But you know it will probably never happen, so you just pin everything and hope that someday your house will look like that.


4. HGTV is your default channel, your "default browser." It's literally on 24/7 and you never really need to change the channel. It even makes good background noise.

5. And if someone dares ask you if they can channel -- wait, there's other channels?!


6. And even when you're not near the TV, you've always got HGTV Magazine nearby, ready to keep you company.

7. That way, you can tab all the pages of what you love, and get serious #inspo for your future home.

8. These words have whole new meanings for you: "hardwood," "marble," "open-concept," "move-in-ready," "flow," and "office-space," They're basically a regular part of your vocabulary now.

9. That bathroom! The closet! And don't even get me started on the kitchen...I NEED ALL OF IT.

10. Hardwood floors? Check. (Mainly so you can do this).

11. A tub you can soak in? Absolutely. (Does Richard Gere come with it?!)


12. Immaculate kitchen complete with marble/granite/quartz countertops?! For sure.

13. Hoping it looks something like this...

14. OK, back to the shows.

15. "House Hunters" makes you want to move. Especially "House Hunters International"...

16. You have this reaction when you see the houses on "Flip or Flop" for the first time before they've been "flipped." (And the prices of the houses, ouch!)


17. David and Hillarey, and Todd and Jillian bickering make you want to pull your hair out. But you love them anyway and are secretly rooting for one of them to win.

18. You can tell Drew and Jonathan Scott apart from one another, no problem. They're basically your brothers too...

19. You're constantly coming up with new ideas for re-decorating or re-arranging everything in your home/apartment/dorm and you can't stop.

20. Nope, never.


You know why? Because my name is Katie and I'm an HGTV junkie, and probably always will be.

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

Friends

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
