Click Here If You Suffer From An Extreme Addiction To Pinterest

"I'm convinced Pinterest could teach me to build my dream house, with nothing but, foam wreaths, wine bottles and a glue gun."

Currently, I have 8.5K pins and 2.5K likes on Pinterest. I'm a Pinterest Addict. Any time I'm bored, I'm pinning. Involved in an awkward social interaction? The solution will always be pinning. I have a board for every occasion and I add another each and every day.

My boards range from cats, to food, to clothes, to words of inspiration. And I know I'm not alone. So if you’re a twenty-something young woman, you should have all of the following Pinterest Boards.

1. Wedding Boards

So you’re in your 20s and are totally single, with no prospects on the horizon. That doesn’t mean you can't have a wedding board that’s totally enviable. Make sure to pin the dress, the ring, the color scheme, the bridesmaid’s dresses and the food and drinks. And don’t forget the flowers! I'm partial to calla lilies, big dresses, and even bigger diamonds.

2. Hair Boards

Whether it be haircuts or colors, every girl needs to have a board of options. Personally, I like to separate hair boards into hair color, haircuts and hair styles. Recently break up with your high school sweet heart after your first semester away at college? Reference the board and chops off your locks. Pass your nursing final and deserve to reward yourself? Finally take the plunge and dye your hair ombre like you’ve been wanting to since you saw the sweet color on some chick from Pretty Little Liars.

3. Food Boards

I can't cook. Like literally at all. I can burn toast without even trying. So it only makes sense to have a food board and one dedicated to all those sweet treats I try making and end up royally ruining. Note to readers: the less ingredients, the easier it is to successfully make a food pin without ending up on the hilariously true Pinterest Fail pages.

4. Clothes Boards

Because I like to be thorough, I have a board for every occasion, including fall, winter, classy, gym and formal clothing. Although I'm a connoisseur for yoga pants, which are pinned to the gym board, a place that is only figurative, I like to think I’ll pin all these cute outfits and one day own and wear them. When in reality, I'm totally fine wearing leggings and a VS hoodie every day of my life.

5. Quote Boards

Need an Instagram caption? Or a Facebook status quote with just enough passive aggression that you should have just tagged the person in it? Or maybe you’re looking for your next tattoo quote to get? The Quote board will always be there to save the day. Word of advice, divide them into happy quotes, sad lyrics, and words that remind you to always SLAY.

6. Beauty Boards

Can't afford every new Anastasia eyeshadow palate eyebrow pencil or the ever popular Kylie Jenner Lip kits? I love to pin makeup ideas and kits, and sometimes I can even recreate some of the looks. Just pin them now, and later when you’re not a broke college student, you’ll remember that beauty comes second to brains.

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.
