I know I know everyone loves their family but I'm pretty sure my family is the best one out there. Now, of course, we might have our flaws but that's what makes us unique. So here's to my crazy yet beautiful family.

Hey peeps ;)

Thanks for always being there for me and showing me endless love and support. Without you all, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be the person I am today. You each have taught me how to be independent and to do my best at everything I do. I'm so thankful for having each an every one of you in my life and to guide me down this crazy thing called life.

I just want to give a special shout-out to my parents, especially my mom. Tula has taught me how to be so independent. I admire you so much mama and I can't tell you how much I am thankful to have you as my mom. Even though you do fight me on certain things, I'm glad you're always there to tell me when I'm wrong.

Now my life wouldn't be half as fun without my crazy siblings, did I mention I have 13 of them lol. I just want to say that I'm so thankful to have y'all in my life and I'm thankful for all the memories we have together. From playing slap to watching scary movies together to playing hide and go seek in the dark (we are never playing that again), to literally just jamming in the car, we always know how to have fun and y'all are the reason that my childhood was literally the best. I miss you guys each and every day and I can't wait to see all of you soon!!!! Also, shout out to my 1000000 cousins. Life literally wouldn't be the same without you guys. Even though you guys are my cousins, I see you as my brothers and sisters. I can't wait for the next family reunion where we can all come together and make more memories.

Now a family wouldn't be complete if I didn't mention all of my aunts and uncles. You guys are literally the craziest yet most loving people I have ever met in my entire life. No matter the distance, I always know that you are there for me. Also, thanks for commenting on all of my pictures, I love my fans <3333 I can't wait to see you guys again and for you to teach me more Samoan (cause mom won't lol).

To my family around the world, thank you so much for being there for me and constantly pushing me to be my best. Y'all are the reason why I am the way I am.

Love,

Molly <33333

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.
