15 Thoughts Everyone Has When They Are Back To School Shopping At Target

In This Article:

Target is already one of the most dangerous places to shop, but at Back to School time it gets so much more dangerous. Join me as I take you through my thought process as I wander through Target.

1. Okay, this will only take 20 minutes...

The famous words I say to myself every time I go through Target. I think I have only accomplished this...5 times in my life.

2. Oh! Let me go check the Dollar Spot!

The Dollar Spot is the most dangerous spot in the whole store. Remind me again, why I do not need a scarf rack when I already have 6?

3. 3 for 20 on Tee Shirts? I need every color for school!

Target has the softest tee shirts around, they are the best Back to School fashion statement. But remember that sometimes, less is more. You do not need 10 of the same black shirt.

4. I wonder if I can wear these pajamas and not have anyone know they are pajamas

Nothing says college student more than wearing pajamas to class. The best type though are the ones that do not even look like pajamas! But trust me, people will know because you are not the only one who had that same thought!

5. I think I should read a book that is not a textbook

All the books that I am not required to read!

6. Why can't I be 5 again to have this?

When I look at all the sparkly backpacks with the Disney Princesses on them I instantly wish that they would be big enough for me to use, but also that it would be trendy.

7. Wow, look it how pretty all the pens are!

All the pens I buy, but I never have one when I need to take an exam.

8. I need all the folders

THEY HAVE LLAMAS ON THEM! AND THIS ONE HAS TACOS ON IT. I NEED THEM ALL.

9. Wait, how much is this stuff?!

Coming back to reality for a second is the most frighting moment of the whole experience.

10. I need to put this stuff back

Trying to fix the damage. Realizing I do need 45 packs of pencils, 20 notebooks, and 10 pencil cases.

11. Well now I am hungry, I need snacks

I thought I just ate, but I might as well get some Cheese It's and some apples...

12. Oh! Maybe I should get new makeup before school starts!

The fact that I never wear makeup to school but I am too far into the blackhole that is Target.

13. I am SO happy

The feeling of euphoria every girl has in Target

14. THAT TOTAL IS LONGER THAN MY PHONE NUMBER

The dreaded moment.

15. I am in serious trouble now

But I really do not care because now I am ready to rock this school year!

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.
