When Your Woman Goes To Hobby Lobby...

"I know December is still four months away, but might as well get it if it's on sale now right?"

When Your Woman Goes To Hobby Lobby...
Huffington Post

When your woman goes to Hobby Lobby, you probably won't see her for another four to five hours. Once she enters the doors of that heavenly building, know that her statement "I'll be out in 15 minutes" is history. You should always have a back-up reason to not join her on this endeavor. She will probably notice the "NEW!" Fall decorations displayed in the front, and want a cart. When your woman goes to Hobby Lobby, she does not plan on spending hundreds of dollars like she explains in the car, but in reality she has put aside money for just in case. After she grabs her cart, she goes to "take a peek" at the Fall decor. After spending half an hour looking at different shapes of pumpkins and scarecrow signs she notices that your home Fall decor is outdated and needs some lovin'. She will put about 10 things in her cart before realizing she only needs 3 of those things. When your woman goes to Hobby Lobby, she will notice that the Christmas decorations are showcased early this year. She will also go to those display shelves to "just look." She will think to herself, "I know December is still four months away, but might as well get it if it's on sale now right?" About an hour later, your woman is ready to move on to the next black hole of decorations. She will think that so many decorations are adorable, but definitely not necessary for your home. When your woman goes to Hobby Lobby, she will want to re-decorate the entire house including every single room. She will design new rooms in her head, and search for the perfect accents around the store. She will notice the cute Laundry signs hanging in the middle of the store, and put one in her cart. She will remember that the color scheme isn't quite the same as what you have now, but she won't care. She will add more decorations to her cart for the laundry room and just ask you to paint later. When your woman goes to Hobby Lobby, she will notice they have decorations for men and want to "treat" you with your own money. She will find "man cave" signs for your non-existent man cave at home and tell you that you should make one. She will find new picture frames without the glass in them and want them all over the house because that is the "New Fad." She will find that there are a bunch of scrap-booking crafts and she will pick that up as her new hobby for a week. She will find baby room decorations, buy them, and then continue to tell you she isn't pregnant, she is just planning ahead because it was on sale. She will buy a rustic globe, but have nowhere to put the damn globe. When your woman goes to Hobby Lobby, she will pick out new plates and cups because the ones you got from Target are just not that cute. She will pick out new mirrors for your teenager daughters room, and return them the next week because your daughter is a teenager and changes her mind every other Tuesday. She will also find gifts for your mom, her best friend, the dog, her old classmate that was obsessed with Pineapples, and herself because "Treat Yo Self." is now and always will be an excuse. She will collect more clutter for your house without getting rid of old clutter. She will ask the employees for advice on the things she has in her cart, and second-guess her almost-purchases. She will think she is going to start quilting, until she realizes how much work goes into quilting. She will believe that you really do need that miss-shaped pumpkin for the front lawn because Janice down the street has one, and it looks adorable out there.


When your woman goes to Hobby Lobby, she will blow all of your money in the span of four hours. Sorry.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

You can't say that no one told you life was gonna be this way.

friends

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
