10 Signs You're the Mom of the Group
Morgan Sokolic

I'm not like most people...I don't drink. At all. Being at such a big party school, it can be so difficult at times because I don't drink and that seems to be the only thing to do for fun there. So instead of sitting home and binge watching whatever I can find on Netflix, I still go out and find ways to have fun. When I go out with my friends, I'm the one who always make sure that everybody gets home safe to their own beds, is tucked in, and has a slight bit of their mental ability left. Mother Morgan to the rescue I always say. Here's a list of things you know too well if you're like me and are the mom of the group.


1. You're always the designated driver


Alright kiddos, let me finish my water. Lets get you into your car seat and head home!


2. You spend more time together trying to get everyone together at the end of the night than you do actually going out, and it is not fun


Trying to rally everyone together is the worst part of the night. Don't forget someone!


3. There's always that one friend that you have to mentally prepare yourself about bringing home


We've all got that one friend who puts up the biggest fight about wanting to leave the bars...


4. When your friends party at your place you find yourself asking all the "Mom" questions


Believe me, this is asked quite often


5. You're there for everything. Carpool, holding the hair back, making sure they go home with the "right" boyfriend.


But do they ever make good choices....?


6. You always feel the need to tidy up when you have people come over


You can't have people in your house with that dirty pan in the sink...like come on.


7. You always have your phone on you and constantly check it to see if one of you "kids" texted or called you


But do they ever...no. Lol.


8. You're the first one to comfort the drunks


There there.


9. You have no shame in being the opposite of the "typical" college student


You don't care at all if you're nothing like everyone else you meet because you know that you're the reason they didn't sleep in a ditch last night.


10. Everyone always feels better after they talk to you


Your advice is always spot on, you're too good at what you do.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
