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.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
