21 Stages Of Shopping At Target

There is no such thing as a quick trip to Target.

When I tell people I am making a quick trip to Target, I'm lying. Who makes a "quick trip" to Target? No one just simply walks in and walks out with all the things they needed. A trip to Target is always an adventure. It's honestly a black hole that traps you inside and you don't even realize it until you leave two hours later with a trunk full of bags. Here are the stages of shopping at Target:

1. Finding a parking spot.

2. Typing in your phone the five things you need.

3. Grabbing a basket because you only need a few things (but then eventually going back to get a cart).

4. Making a pit stop at Starbucks for no reason.

5. When you see the $3 and under section.

6. Deciding you need a pair of $1 fuzzy socks for whatever holiday it is.

7. Stopping at every sample station on the days they are out.

8. Debating on buying those healthy drinks because they are buy-one-get-one.

9. Going down every aisle of the grocery section.

10. Looking at the fun designer luggage and wanting to buy it even though you aren't going on a trip anytime soon.

11. Going down the blanket aisle and obviously buying a new soft blanket.

12. Trying on basically every shoe that has your size.

13. Looking through the holiday/seasonal section knowing you aren't buying any of it.

14. Stopping by the workout aisle and thinking to yourself how you should work out more.

15. Checking out the new kid toys, questioning why you didn't have things like that as a child.

16. Galavanting through the swimsuits and clothes wondering when Target got such cute things.

17. Looking at the workout attire thinking you'd workout more in those leggings.

18. Finally making your way to the checkout after two hours.

19. Questioning how your total came to $95 and 12 bags when you only came for five items.

20. Packing your bags into your car.

21. Getting on the road only to realize you forgot two of the five things you originally went to Target for.

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.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
