9 Apologies Your Mom Deserves From Your Bratty Teen Years
Huffington Post

Every mother-daughter relationship has its fair share of hilarity, annoyance, love, and arguing, but nothing is worse than the attitude a teenage girl is capable of copping to their mom. As teens, we didn't mean to be bratty, but we were unable to control our emotions. So here is an official apology to all the mothers of teenage daughters: past, present, or future.

We are sorry for...

1. Rolling our eyes when you made a joke.

It was never an insult to your inner comedian. In fact, you may have been pretty funny, but we could never admit that! Then you would never stop cracking jokes, and my entire friend group would hear your "funny" stories of me practicing my runway walk while watching "America's Next Top Model."

2. Getting sassy with you for no real reason.

PMS made us do it!

3. Not trusting you to be a "cool mom" when it came to public events.

You were cool...we were just blinded by our own egos.

4. Cluing you into way too much drama.


I'm sure your head wanted to explode from my countless talks about DRAMA...but thanks for listening! Love ya, Ma!

5. Lying to you about boys.

Totally got back together with that jerk you warned me to stay away from...sorry!

6. Ignoring your advice when you were right.


7. Critiquing your outfits.

We were dumb. Your shirt looked just fine. We looked a little crazy in our neon tank tops.

8. Fighting with you over the little things.


It probably wasn't that big of a deal that you wouldn't drive us to the mall. I mean there was a killer sale at Express but whatever...sorry.

9. Not telling you that I love you enough.

Lastly, I'm sorry we didn't always tell you how special you were. I'm sorry we didn't tell you we loved you for doing everything for us. We might annoy each other sometimes, but we will always love each other more.

To the moon and back, Mom.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
