The Love Hate Relationship With Pinterest

10 Thoughts Every 'Pinner'  Has
GraphQL

Hey there, if you're like me then you are OBSSESSED with Pinterest, there's just one problem... Pinterest is not the real world, and is full of lies. I still love it though! Here are 10 thoughts that I have, just about every time I look at the beautiful site.

1. Dang that's cute, I'm just going to click on the link and see how much:

Oh, $75.00 for a swimsuit, that's funny.... well I guess I will just have to go with out, as I am not a millionaire and can't justify spending $75 on something that will get sunscreen and water on it.

2. YES, that D.I.Y. looks so easy:

LOL, fail. Epic. Fail. It is sad that I can't do a simple craft; what is the meaning of my life? It is time for me to come to grips that I will NEVER be a crafty mom. #pinterestfail is the most relatable hashtag out there, am I right?

3. OMG 30 days to a beach body:

Wait, the girl in that picture is most likely a model, so the 30 day ab workout will probably not have the same affect on me.... oh well, time to go get another snack!

4. Another D.I.Y... seriously, how do they do that:

One would think that a tissue paper pineapple would be very simple to make... WRONG. I am starting to wonder how I passed art in elementary school?

5. Can my Pinterest closet please be my real closet, please:

I know I am not the only one who has this thought. If I had half the clothes that I pinned, I wouldn't always be wearing gym clothes...I would actually make an effort to look nice. But who needs cute clothes anyway.... wait, I do.

6. The 'hacks' on Pinterest:

Honestly, how do people come up with these, and how do they have that much time on their hands? I just saw a pin titled '35 Home Depot hacks you'll regret not knowing' 35..... seriously.... there are 35 hacks that I need to know about Home Depot?

7. Oh that recipe looks yummy:

I have had about 3 successful recipes off of Pinterest... out of the 413 pins that I have. Ya win some, ya lose some... well you lose most of them in my case.

8. If my house was a house from Pinterest:

I have created my dream house, now i just need 3 bajillion dollars to build it; donations are welcome... Honestly, if my laundry room looked like the ones I have pinned, I would be content just living in there.

9. Feeling like a life coach:

Let me just say, whenever I am feeling down, all I have to do is spend about five minutes on Pinterest looking at the "motivational quotes", and I leave feeling like a life coach.

10. Being able to laugh at ALL of my #pinterestfails:

I once saw this adorable picture of a dog wrapped in Christmas lights. Naturally, I grabbed my dog and lit him up like a Christmas tree.... he still gets the jitters around Christmas time... whoops!

I seriously love Pinterest, but these thoughts cross my mind every time I click on the cute little app on my phone.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
