Every group of friends have one, the mom of the group.

They're there to make sure that you actually make it home from the nights out, that you don't text your ex and most importantly that you're still alive the next day. They make you feel as if your own mom is there at college with you. They take care of you when you're sick and they know all your important dates. Sometimes they even make you a calendar. They send you the texts each day to keep you going or simply to just check on you.

If you do anything these 11 things well then, you're probably the mom of the group.

1. Strips stripes and more stripes

2. You bought crocs because of the arch support, no matter what everyone says about them

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

"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!
