12 Promises Every College Girl Makes When Going To Target That She NEVER Keeps

In This Article:

As a girl who visits Target at MINIMUM once a week, I definitely say all of these things. I firmly believe that Target is a pretty magical place, and I could waste hours on end pacing the aisles. If you're anything like me, I'm sure you make all of these statements too.

1. “Okay. I’m only here for TWO things.”

This is your in-car pep talk. Repeating your two-item list seven times before heading up to the doors.

2. “I don’t need a cart; I’m just getting two things.” 

Giphy

This is a lie…you just don't want to admit it yet.

3. “I better look at the new stuff in the dollar section.”

The dollar section is so enticing- the portable chargers, the seasonal décor, things you FOR SURE don't need.

4. “Do NOT go to the clearance clothes.”

*Goes to the clearance clothes and grabs four things because they're only five dollars. *

5. “I need to read more; I’ll get this book on clearance.”

Let's be honest, you're never going to read that book.

6. “Now I need a cart.”

This is an admission of defeat.

7. “Ooh, I like that phone case.”

Who can resist a shiny new phone case?

8. “I do NOT need more candles.” 

Giphy

You just smelled eight candles and put them all into your cart because they were half off.

9. “I could honestly live here.”

I mean it has everything you need to sustain life - clothes, food, water, soft places to sleep.

10. “Oh shoot, I forgot to Cartwheel this stuff.”

You're now standing near the register quickly scanning everything in the app trying to save some more money.

11. “Might as well get a drink and snack for the road.”

I can't resist the candy and Starbucks by the exit…

12. “Dang it…I forgot the two things I came here for…”

You have made it to your car, put everything in the trunk, ready to drive off. You check your receipt, see that you spent WAY too much money, and didn't leave with what you originally went in for.

Don't worry, you'll probably be back tomorrow.

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.
