8 Ways You Know You're Addicted To Target

1. You go there for anything and everything.

Need snacks? Go to Target. Need makeup remover? You can get it at Target. Need tissues? Target has those. Need something to do? Target is the perfect place to spend your night. You always find an excuse to visit your home away from home.

2. Anytime someone mentions it you have to contain your excitement.

The minute that you hear the word "Target," you're overcome with the urge to discuss how much you love that wonderful store.

3. You walk in for a few things and end up convincing yourself that you need everything you see.

"You know, that shirt does look really good on me and if I get this shirt then I'll need those shoes too." *$110 later...*

4. And then you walk out with everything EXCEPT those few things.

Ugh. Not again. You told yourself that you were going to Target for specific things and those things ONLY and that you wouldn't forget, and what do you do?

5. Every time you go to check out and the cashier asks if you want to sign up for a Red Card you flash your red, plastic card with pride.

Why wouldn't you have a Red Card, you need those discounts for all of the things that you buy that you know you don't really need. But hey, you have a coupon for it!

6. You call it "Tar-jay".

Every time you say "Tar-jay" your friends cringe and pretend that they don't know you. "Let's go to Tar-jay!"

7. You walk around the home decor section planning out your dream home and what you'll have in it.

Just think about how great this lamp will look next to the statue of the golden lion. You can put those candle sticks on top of the brick mantel and those paintings would look AMAZING in the dining room!


8. When people tell you that you have a problem, you just look at them and say, "It's not a choice, it's a lifestyle."

Because your love for that big red target will never die.

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.
