Pinterst- You Could Call it a Love/Hate Relationship

OHHHH Pinterest. (This entry might ramble and rant some by the way)
 Wedding boards, wedding boards, wedding boards.
 It seems like when I sit in the back of some of my classes, girls are planning their not soon to be weddings, with their not soon to be husbands, with their potential wedding dress (that probably won't look good on them- #sorrynotsorry).
I recently have starting using Pinterest, meaning this summer. My boards consist of :
-Work Inspired Outfits
-Little Black Dresses
-Fancy Feet(aka heels)
-Halloween costume ideas
-Casual outfits
-Makeup(because, well I should maybe start learning how to wear it a little more, at least in my opinion)
-Apartment Stuff
-Music I Jam To
-CRAFTS I'M ACTUALLY GOING TO TRY

That last one, yes ACTUALLY going to try. I mean SHEESH, I understand if you own a blog(a la ME ) or run a business where Pinterest can be essential, but COME ON LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO WITH 99928734983742 pins? Are you going to remember what you even wanted to craft, or bake or wear even though you have boards that organize it for you? In my humble opinion......I think not! It seems to me as though Pinterest is a mindless thing to do in class when you don't want to listen.

The intended purpose of Pinterest to begin with was to keep you organized so you can REMEMBER what you want to do, and ACTUALLY do it.

I vow to not pin more than TEN crafts at a time, meaning during a "pinning session" until I finish at least TWO crafts!

My first craft is going to be decorating my plastic storage bins at school into something less blah and boring. So ladiesand gentleman,( according to the statistics over 80 percent of pinners are women) start creating your crafts!

What do you pin the most on your boards? What was your favorite craft?
