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.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

One Book Made Me Question Existence In Its Entirety

"The Stranger" by Albert Campus touches upon many heavy elements... but not in the way you expect. Although it touches upon the aspects of death and love, it also deals with a hidden philosophy similar to that of nihilism.

The story follows the short life events of Meursault, a Frenchman whose carelessness for his actions eventually ends him in jail and dependent on a jury of people to judge the ethicality of his decision and the punishment that he deserves. He eventually gets the death penalty and all throughout he is nonchalant and almost apathetic towards his situation. He finally snaps when the prison sends a priest to him to absolve him of his sins and to cajole him in confessing to the lord.
