Here at Odyssey, we believe in you. Just pick one of these things and go get 'em, tiger.

1. Go to a movie by yourself.

As ladies, we tend to be very social people. Try going to a movie by yourself and see what happens. You may be very uncomfy, but it'll be worth it.

2. Go salsa dancing.

This is EXTREMELY important for those of you who live in the south. Experience another culture aside from "yee yee".

3. Join a gym and learn how to lift weights.

Nothing is more empowering than learning how to get stronger. It may be uncomfortable since most girls are cardio queens, but do it.

4. Do something that you're terrified to do.

Yeah, I know this sounds cliché, but what's the scariest thing that you can think of? Personally, I'm terrified of heights, so definitely the whole ziplining thing is not on my list of fun things to do.

5. Go to an exotic restaurant and let the waiter/ waitress surprise you.

Who doesn't like a little bit of adventure? And culture? Win win.

6. Fast.

Fasting is something that you can do to step out of your bodily comfort zone and become spiritually recharged.

7. Do the Whole30.

This one's kind of like the last one, but it's uncomfortable to NOT be allowed to drive to Gumby's and eat pizza rolls.

8. Ask a boy on a date.

Face rejection. I dare you. You'll be so uncomfortable doing it, but the worst they can say is "no" and move on with their lives.

9. Switch up your style.

You know that crop-top that you've always been to afraid to wear? Put that thing on, girl. Chances are you'll get mega support from all of your other ladies too.

10. Have a genuine conversation with a homeless person.

Let's start treating people like people.

11. Talk to a stranger on the bus.

Imagine what a friendly world it would be if we all talked to one another once in a while and unplugged.

12. Visit a new country.

Have you ever been to Canada? It's out of the United States and is full of adventures! To make your adventure even more exciting, go somewhere where you cannot speak the language.

13. Spend a day without trying to constantly please people.

Be yourself, not who everyone wants you to be. Spend a day to be authentically you.

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!
