8 Reasons Why Being Close With Your Mom Is Rad.
Taylor Hamparian

1. She always has her phone on for when you need her, so when you are out late she won't fall asleep until she sees that you are home and safe. For example, when I come home from a long night at my night job, she won't go to sleep until I walk in the door.

2. She is your first role model and someone you aspire to be, which you should be grateful for.

3. When you have good news, when it's a new job opportunity or when you got into your dream school, she is the first person to know and your #1 fan, or when you are an athlete she will be sitting in front in the bleachers with a sign in her hand!

4. When you get yourself in a sticky situation (no worries everyone does) your mom will be right there with you by your side to help you through it.

5. She is always liking your Facebook post so you are all set in the likes department. She will also post throwback pictures, and write appreciation statuses about you!

6. Home cooked meals, the recipes she will share with you, and the warm smell in your house you will smell when you come home when you know she is making your favorite meal. Mama H makes the best pulled pork ever and I always smell it when she makes it, its the best.

7. You NEVER have to worry about turning into her because you want to.

8 Lastly, you feel bad for everyone else because they don't have your mom.


Your relationship with your mother is a wonderful thing to cherish. After losing my father, I gained such a appreciation for how strong my mother is inside and out. Remember every moment with your mother because you never know what could happen.


Thank you to all the kick-ass moms out there! XOX

Love,

Your proud child.

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.
