Thoughts You Have While Watching "Fixer Upper"

HGTV is full of fantastic shows about flipping houses, fixing up homes and purchasing the perfect place. But there is one particular show that reigns supreme in my book, and that is "Fixer Upper." It features a couple, Chip and Joanna Gaines, who help people find a house and then fix it up for them in a matter of weeks. The homes are usually in or around Waco, Texas. This show has been a huge success for the couple and everyone seems to be jumping on the Magnolia bandwagon - the name of a shop Joanna owned and now the name of the farm where they live. It's always fun to watch the show, not only for the houses, but also for the dynamic between Chip and Joanna. For anyone who has watched more than one episode, you may be able to relate to the following thoughts you can have while watching.

1. Yes! A new episode!


2. Chip and Jo are the ultimate relationship goals.

3. Which house will the lucky people on today's episode pick?


4. #DemoDay

5. Every house should have an open floor plan. Get all the walls out!


6. Demo Day actually looks really fun with the two of them around.


7. How do all these houses magically have hardwood underneath that awful carpeting? And shiplap on the walls?


8. I didn't even know what shiplap was until I watched this show.


9. Now I need shiplap in every room of my house.


10. Actually, can I move to Waco?


11. Really, though, I'm going to look for jobs in Waco.


12. Here comes Chip with his important life questions.

13. There must never be a boring day for them.


14. Back to the house: How do they make that run-down house look so good?


15. Seriously, relationship goals. I hope I can find someone who feels the same way about me as they do about each other.

16. Yep, I need to move to Waco.


17. Or maybe they would be interested in coming to my state to find me the perfect house here?


18. Now googling any potential barndominium in my local area.

I have to say, picking a favorite house they have fixed up is a difficult decision. But the barndominium is probably it for me. If you only watch one episode, this needs to be the one!

19. How does Joanna even think of all these designs? This is a new level of creativity.


20. Another job well done. But who's surprised?

They did a great job, but does it have to come to an end?


With a book coming out later this year, Chip and Joanna Gaines' success story is only just beginning. If you haven't watched "Fixer Upper" yet, seasons 1 and 2 are on Netflix so you can binge to your heart's desire. Then maybe we can all move to Waco together.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
