There's baby-fever, wedding-fever, engagement-fever — but what about house-fever? Thanks to popular TV channels like HGTV and social media platforms like Pinterest, my desire to own my own home is at an all-time high. In my mind, it's Chip and Joanna Gaines' world and we're just living in it.

With their new collection coming to Target stores soon, I've been staring at the promotional pictures Target released wishing I had my own home to fill them with. But that's not all that's got me wishing I was a homeowner. I'm feeling the house-fever and here are 10 signs you're feeling it, too.

1. You've browsed Zillow relentlessly in all the areas you want to live in


2. You've calculated approximately how much you could afford in a mortgage if you didn't have those pesky student loans to pay off


3. Your Pinterest boards are filled with "My First Home", "DIY for the House" and "Home Decor Inspo" pins


4. New houseware stores excite you


5. The highlight of your week is when your local Home Goods gets their new shipment in


6. Your email inbox looks like an interior designer's coupon paradise


7. You've said the words "Dave Ramsey said..." un-ironically


8. You have strong opinions on bay windows versus picture windows


9. Saturday's are the best days because of all the open houses


10. You SO/family/friends are about to strangle you if you make them watch another all-day marathon on HGTV

1. Why is Wilson Hall so complicated to navigate? Even as a senior, I still get lost in Wilson. As a freshman, I was warned about the unnecessary complexity of the building, was laughed at by upperclassman for my confused looks on the first day of school and walked and rewalked the whole hall before finding my classroom. #annoying.

Blair Waldorf For governor of new york

Cynthia Nixon, a.k.a Miranda from Sex and the City, is running for governor of New York. I think that this would be the best decision that has been made in a while solely based off of the fact that almost no one knows New York like the cast of Sex and the City. This got me thinking about who else would be a good candidate to take over the city of dreams. Then I realized that Blair Waldorf, if she were a real person, would be my number one choice for governor. Here are five reasons why Queen B would be an excellent ruler.

America's biggest party schools
Determining which schools are the biggest party schools is often subjective, but a some statistical factors you could use to make a judgement include (1) consumption, (2) drug usage, (3) strong greek life presence, (4) campus police records etc.

When a student at Auburn was recently asked, she explained: "These schools usually have, like, a super vibrant social scene, lots of Greek life (like my amazing sorority, duh!), and tons of exciting events happening all the time. I mean, we're talking about tailgates, themed parties, mixers with fraternities, and just, like, so much fun. But don't get me wrong, we still, like, study and go to class and all that. It's just that at a party school, the social life and having a good time are, like, major priorities for students."
