The Best Weekend: Mom's Weekend

Let me start out by saying I love my mother. She is my number one, and my mentor. She taught me everything I know. She thinks I'm an angel (because I am) that frequents the library, keeps his face in the books, and generally sacrifices a whole lot of time for the sake of education. While I do go to the library, sometimes, and I do hit the books hard, how on earth do you warn your mom about what's about to happen later that evening?

The first time I had my mother over to the house, I was terrified. I cleaned, I disinfected, I did literally everything I could to ensure that my mom did not think that I was a degenerate living in a pile of empty beer cans, stale food and dirty underwear. Oh, I was nervous, alright -- not to introduce her to my friends, but to introduce her to what we had planned for that night. Consisting primarily of wine and more wine, it really unnerved my mom's initial impression. However, when introduced to other moms around the party, the night was quickly saved. The day afterwards, my mother told me that she was nervous at first but when she made some friends it was just like the old days for her. Mother's weekend is a great way for moms to unwind for a weekend.

Having sorority mothers over is quoted by Akon as "the dopest weekend ever because they bring really nice booze and it's hilarious seeing a bunch of drunk moms running around." What starts out as innocent small talk, quickly snowballs into a much more lively scene. Once the liquid courage starts to build up, mothers hit the dance floor like they have never done before. Friendships form in a matter of seconds simply because you made a stupid joke about your friend to her mom. The best part about those friendships is that not only will the mom maybe hook you up with some really nice booze, but you also might have the opportunity to rub in your friends face that "your mom is in love with me."

Eventually the mothers get tuckered out. Even coming into the party with the, "I have to be able to hang out with my son's/daughter's friends, I'm not old yet" mentality, all moms hit their limit. Rides are called and hugs are given at the door. Moms make friends with their kid's friends and everyone is happy.

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!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).
