Dear Sleep,

Hey, How are you? Remember me? Are you avoiding me? Last night, I had about 2 and a half hours of sleep studying for Anatomy, and I just finished a 13 hour school day. All day, all I could think about was taking off my makeup, showering, getting into my pajamas and reuniting with you. Not having my daily dose of Dunkin iced coffee didn't help either. I looked and felt like hell!!

I know when I was younger we didn't see eye to eye. We had our fair shares of problems, but god, how I miss you. I took you for granted and didn't realize what I had until it was gone. You were nothing but good to me, and I treated you like shit, I'm sorry. I was a naive kid that had no Idea how beneficial you were to me. A teen who thought binge watching Onetreehill late at night was better than being with you. Boy, was I wrong!

I catch myself numerous of times thinking about you, wondering when you will bless me with your presence. I really miss you, I really really miss you, you were my first love and I truly am nothing without you. You were good to me mentally and physically. You were the glue that kept me together, kept me sanest. I know it sounds like I'm saying these things only to be back on your good side, but I mean it more than you'll ever know. Come back to me, please come back to me. This time, I'll treat you like the Queen you are, because you more than deserve it.

PS. Do you think you can stop teasing me, and come sooner than 1am, i'm getting tired of these late nights

PS. PS these bags under my eyes are not cute, girl!!! See you soon, hopefully.

Much love,
Istahil

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.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

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.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

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!
