11 Struggles Of Having A Mother Cooler Than You
Kelsey Cantwell

I'm one of those lucky "Teacher's Kids" that actually had a mother who was a teacher that students looked up to. Everyone loves her. She's strong, independent, and she's the hardest worker I know. In fact, she's been teaching high school and adjunct college classes for about forty years. My senior year of high school, she was voted "Funniest Teacher" and "Favorite Teacher". One of her former students even filmed her during one of her sermons--I mean, lessons... It has over 1,000 views.


Here are some of the struggles I'm sure many of you with cool mothers face daily.

1. The only reason friends hang out with you is because she makes them laugh.

2. She steals your jokes but delivers them with more pizzazz than you ever could.

3. Old friends always ask how she's doing before they ask how you're doing.

4. She has more Facebook friends than you.

5. More of your friends from high school follow her on Instagram than you.

6. It's cute when she uses emojis incorrectly, but when you make an accident you're shunned.

7. You can't keep up with her when she raps along to Tupac.

8. You can't leave the grocery store without five different people coming up to you to say how awesome your mom is.

9. Your mom actually copied your hair cut, but it doesn't matter. You're still just tryna be like yo' momma.

10. It's not that people don't want to listen to you, they would just rather listen to your mom.

11. No matter how weird it is to know you're becoming more like your mother everyday, you can't help but smile because there is no one else you'd rather emulate.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
