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.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
