15 Signs You're The Mom Of Your Friend Group

1. You always expect a text from your friends after a night out so you know they got home safely.

Someone's gotta make sure they didn't fall asleep at the bus stop with a half eaten chicken nugget and a water bottle full of anything but water.

2. A relationship doesn't mean anything until it has your seal of approval.

Sometimes love is very, very blind.

3. Your purse is a blackhole of everything anyone could ever possibly need.

From practical things, like chapstick and a pen, to the most random things, like a spoon and cold medicine, your purse is a grocery store, pharmacy, beauty salon, and office desk all in one. If your friend needs it, it is almost certainly in your purse. Hey, you never know when you might need a can opener.

4. You are constantly picking your friends up and giving them lectures about their poor life choices.

Just because their parents don't know about the stupid things they are doing, doesn't mean you don't and doesn't mean that they don't need some guidance.

5. On the flip side, you are also there to support them and congratulate them on all of their big accomplishments.

Even if that accomplishment was just getting out of bed for their 8 AM. We all know that deserves a lot of praise.

6. You are always there to listen to all of their problems, drama, and tragedies and help them work through them.

From big to small, you're there for them all.

7. You nag them all the time about how they are dressed.

It's cold out there, don't you know.

8. You don't care what your friends say, Food Network and HGTV are cool.

They'll thank you when you cook them a chef worthy meal or redecorate your dorm like it is straight out of a Better Homes and Gardens.

9. You always keep your room and their rooms clean, and still feel the need to clean before guests come over.

Never underestimate the power of a clean room.

10. You plan every minute of your day (and your life), and stick to a tight schedule.

You don't know how anyone else ever knows where to be without a schedule like yours.

11. You leave your friends cute notes.

A word or encouragement can go a long way.

12. You are constantly amazing your friends at the things you know how to do.

Stitch up a rip in clothing, make homemade ketchup, polish shoes.

13. Your friends come to you before their doctor for medical advice.

You're way under qualified, but you still are always answering the question "Can I take this with Tylenol?"

14. You go to bed much earlier than everyone else, and encourage them to do the same.

Even though they never listen.

15. And the most obvious sign of all, your friends CALL you mom.

Own it.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
