There is nothing like cute office supplies to make you feel like you have your life together. A beautifully organized desk is not only aesthetically pleasing but it can also help you be more productive while doing work at your desk. You could say that I might be a little obsessed with stationary. Here are some signs that you are too!


You have a variety of cute gel pens.

I've got a serious problem. I will always buy gel pens when they go on sale. As a result, I have more gel pens than a person needs in a lifetime. There is nothing like taking notes in multi-colored ink. It helps you organize your notes better as well. There is something really satisfying about organizing the pens by color too. (I know, I'm weird)

You love cute designs on any office supply!

There are many websites such as Rifle Paper Co or Etsy that you can order really cute supplies from. If you're like me, you have to stay far away from these websites but you really can't resist. Target and TJ Maxx usually have really cute stuff as well! I go to each at least once a week. Minted is also a great website to check out if you love really cute prints for your office. It is really affordable!

You search Pinterest for office setup ideas

I know I love going on Pinterest for just about everything. I love to get on there for office ideas. There is nothing like an office that is really well put together. If you can't have an office, maybe a well-organized desk will do the trick for you. Either way, where you do your work should be warm and inviting so you can sit a be productive for however long you have to work. Buying a few organization things such as a paper tray or a pen holder can really bring your desk together.

You look forward to each semester because you get to go school supplies shopping.

Growing up, this was my favorite thing about going back to school! I liked picking all of my school supplies and decorating them with marker and stickers. Now that I'm in college I still like buying school supplies that are cute! I don't decorate them anymore because you can buy pre-designed supplies which I love! With each semester, comes new opportunities to feed your addiction!

You look for new organization ideas online or in magazines.

You constantly look for ideas and new stationary online or in magazine pictures. I like to watch YouTube videos on office tours to get ideas on how to organize my own. Although, I don't utilize many of the ideas, it is still very satisfying to think about what your office/desk could be.

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.
