Thank You To Young Moms

Always My Mother, Forever My Friend
Love of mom

Dear Mom,

I know having a child in college was not your plan. I do not even know if having kids were in your life plan. By getting pregnant with me, I know you were put in many difficult decision for example keeping me or finding a different way out. You knew from the beginning my father would not be there. You knew your so called friends would leave. You knew continuing college would be difficult. You knew some of your freedoms would be gone. None of those things changed your mind about keeping me. I want this time to tell you thank you. We had our fights but never once did I regret you being my mother. Thank you for not strangling me on our bad days even though I know the only reason you did not was the fact you would go to prison. Thank you for loving me even though some days you couldn't stand me because you could not go to that party or out with friends. Thank you for putting up with me when I would not go to bed and wanted you to read the 20th book of the night. Thank you for staying up late with me when my nose decided to bled for hours. Thank you for all the stuffed animals I wanted but did not need . Thank you for being there whenever I called. Thank you for supporting me even though you did not always like too aka dance competitions. Thank you for caring about everything maybe a little to much sometimes. Thank you for the animal battles where our room would be destroyed even though it always was. I could say thank you for so many other things too but I believe I have made my point. So in conclusion, thank you mom and I love you more than you believe!

With all my love,

Your Daughter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
