26 Thoughts Every Girl Has While Shopping
Tumblr

Let's face it. We girls have a love/hate relationship when it comes to retail. We will most likely question every move we make at the store. We hate when our shopping trips linger, but catch us on a good day and we will have no problem digging and searching for the best discounts and goodies. We might not have enough money to afford all of the treasures we set our eyes upon, but when we try it on, we feel like a million bucks. And nothing beats online shopping—a girl's true dream come true. Sitting by your laptop looking for deals dressed in sweats while eating spoonfuls of ice cream—everything's just a few clicks away. So whether you're window shopping or tracking down your package, us shoppers have quite a lot on our minds.

1. Alright. What am I here for?

2. Focus. Focus. No distractions.

3. These are the cutest pair of shoes.

*checks price tag* Oh. No, they're not.

4. Of course the cutest print of Victoria's secret undies are not in my size.

5. OMG. Is that the clearance section? Jackpot.

6. No, I don't need help for the 1,000th time.

7. I don't work out that often but I would if I had this sports bra.

8. Why must this absolutely beautiful sundress be so overpriced?

9. I should check my bank account.

10. I have got to try these on.

Cue mirror selfie.

11. When did this place get so crowded?

12. I'm so hungry. I gotta pee, too.

13. These shorts are cute. So is this top.

14. I wonder if I can pull this off. It's so trendy.

15. My size has got to be here somewhere.

16. I mean, there's always a chance they have it online.

17. This line is way too long for just one item. Whatevs. Worth it.

18. OMG. Don't even get me started on the goodies they purposely put next to the checkout line.

19. I. Want. Everything.

20. I really like this dress but maybe I should keep looking. I'll hide it just in case I come back.

21. OMG. Is that my teacher from high school?

Abort mission. Abort. Abort.

22. That's it. I'm over this. Wait... No, I'm not.

23. Now that I think about it, Christmas is coming up soon...in 12 months. My sister would love this.

24. How long have I been here?

25. No regrets.


26. When did this all add up?

I definitely can't be the only one.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
