20 Ways You Know You're A HGTV Junkie

HGTV. Four letters, so much meaning. HGTV stands for Home and Garden TV. But for us HGTV junkies (those who watch daily, or never switch channels), these four letters have so much more meaning. So, here’s to wood-floors, open-concepts, marble countertops and spa-like bathrooms!

20 Ways You Know You’re an HGTV Junkie (as told by one):

1. You watch every show. There literally isn’t one you won’t watch, and when someone asks you your favorite, you honestly can’t tell them.


2. BUT, if you absolutely had to choose, it’d definitely be "Fixer Upper." Chip and Joanna Gaines are just #relationshipgoals.


3. Oh, and you literally want EVERY single house that they fix. Joanna is AMAZING. But you know it will probably never happen, so you just pin everything and hope that someday your house will look like that.


4. HGTV is your default channel, your "default browser." It's literally on 24/7 and you never really need to change the channel. It even makes good background noise.

5. And if someone dares ask you if they can channel -- wait, there's other channels?!


6. And even when you're not near the TV, you've always got HGTV Magazine nearby, ready to keep you company.

7. That way, you can tab all the pages of what you love, and get serious #inspo for your future home.

8. These words have whole new meanings for you: "hardwood," "marble," "open-concept," "move-in-ready," "flow," and "office-space," They're basically a regular part of your vocabulary now.

9. That bathroom! The closet! And don't even get me started on the kitchen...I NEED ALL OF IT.

10. Hardwood floors? Check. (Mainly so you can do this).

11. A tub you can soak in? Absolutely. (Does Richard Gere come with it?!)


12. Immaculate kitchen complete with marble/granite/quartz countertops?! For sure.

13. Hoping it looks something like this...

14. OK, back to the shows.

15. "House Hunters" makes you want to move. Especially "House Hunters International"...

16. You have this reaction when you see the houses on "Flip or Flop" for the first time before they've been "flipped." (And the prices of the houses, ouch!)


17. David and Hillarey, and Todd and Jillian bickering make you want to pull your hair out. But you love them anyway and are secretly rooting for one of them to win.

18. You can tell Drew and Jonathan Scott apart from one another, no problem. They're basically your brothers too...

19. You're constantly coming up with new ideas for re-decorating or re-arranging everything in your home/apartment/dorm and you can't stop.

20. Nope, never.


You know why? Because my name is Katie and I'm an HGTV junkie, and probably always will be.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
