If you're anything like me going to class is torture. Half the time you show up and everything the professor says goes in one ear and out the other, so why even go? Well, here's some good excuses next time someone tells you that you should go to class more often.

1. There's nowhere to park.

As bad as it may sound, this is my most common reason for not going to class. I refuse to park my car a mile away from where my class is and walk. I just won't do it.

2. I have work to do for another class.

Yeah... Okay... I'm sure sometimes this is true.

3. I stayed up all night studying...

and by studying I mean watching two full seasons of "The Office", but honestly who can blame me. The show is comedic gold... Now, to catch up on my sleep for tonight!

4. It's raining.

If it's raining there's a pretty good chance I won't leave my house, because as I previously mentioned, there's nowhere to park and who really wants to walk a mile in the rain? Not me.

5. It's Friday.

I do not understand who decided it was okay to have classes on Friday. Thirsty Thursday was last night. I mean, come on.

6. I need a nap.

This is honestly my most common excuse because it's the most believable. Everyone knows after a full day of not going to class and "studying" you're going to be exhausted.

7. The professor doesn't take attendance.

If I sit down on syllabus day and my professor says attendance isn't mandatory I can guarantee I won't step foot in that room until test day.

8. I have gone to this class every day for the past week.

The little victories need to be celebrated. Reward yourself.

9. It's Monday.

Who honestly wants to get out of bed on a Monday and sit in a 9 a.m. Chemistry class? No one, that's who.

Surely there are more reasons to think of, but honestly, these are just the ones I've used this week.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

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.

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!
