While college teaches you how to be an independent being, that doesn't mean you still don't need your mom. Who else would be there to... well, you'll see.

1. To make you dinner when the dining hall isn't serving real food

But what else am I supposed to eat if she isn't here to make me food?

2. To help you plan out your outfit

*Sends mom five different outfits with three tops and two pairs of jeans in the span of two minutes*

3. To give you her clothes when your closet isn’t good enough

I will forever miss not being able to walk into my mom's closet to try on the new clothes she just bought and "forgetting" to ask her to borrow it.

4. To make you feel better when you don’t feel good

Either you come here or I will just annoy you with FaceTime calls and text messages complaining until I feel better.

5. To listen to you when you need someone to talk to

"Hi, I'm on my way to class so just stay on until I walk in the building..."

6. To drop everything when you’re bored just to hang out with you

Nails? Shopping? Lunch? Movies?

7. To vent to her about roommate problems

"You will NEVER guess what she just did..."

8. To remind you about… well… everything

My mom knows more about my life than I do. I don't know how she can remember if I barely do.

9. To be there for you just because she makes everything better

So when are you moving into my dorm room?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
