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

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
