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

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
