8 Signs Your Mom Is Your Best Friend
Sophie Samuels

My mom is an amazing woman: beautiful, intelligent, interesting, and hard working. For me, she's my role model and the person I go to whenever I need advice. She's also my best friend, and I'm perfectly okay and actually proud to admit this. If you have a close relationship with your mom as well, you might relate to some of these moments.

1. She's your number #1 on Speed Dial

She's the first one you call whenever anything significant (or—who are we kidding— trivial) happens to us.

2. Boy drama? She's your go-to for advice

If you have guy problems, you're going to talk her ear off until she gives you every bit of advice she has.

3. Or for a shoulder to virtually cry on

And then she'll listen to you bawl your eyes out if said advice did not go as planned.

4. Your Facebook notifications are most likely from her

When an adorable dog video is posted on Facebook, she's the first one you're tagging in the comments and vice versa.

5. She's your Tv Binge Buddy

You've watched every reality tv show and Netflix Original together and she's just as much into bingeing as you are—in fact, you think of each other as binge enablers.

6. You want to buy her everything you think she'd like, but you're way too broke

You know her so well, Mother's Day, Christmas, and her birthday are incredibly frustrating because you see so many things she would love and you want to buy her, but alas, your broke self can't do anything about it.

7. She can read you like a book

She can see right through you, and if you're NOT OKAY, she's the first one to be able to detect it.

8. She's your bestie for the restie

In the end, you wouldn't want anyone else for a mom or a best friend.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
