Everything I Want To Say To My Mom

I love you.

Everything I Want To Say To My Mom

Happiness. When I think of you, that’s the first word that comes to my mind. Throughout my entire life you have done everything and anything to make sure I’m happy.

It started by making sure all of my needs were met, and now it’s constantly asking if I’m okay. So let me answer it now for you, I really am. In fact, I am more than okay.

This is due to the fact that I have you by my side. Whether or not I have been feeling awful, I know you’re there for me. Comedy shows and fuzzy socks is comfort for us. I love when you suggest we bake something (or go buy donuts) when I’m upset. How you don’t even have to ask if I’m feeling sad. As soon as I hug you in that specific way you know exactly what I need.

As much as I appreciate you being in my sentimental moments, I love our adventures together. We make everything we do an adventure (yes, even that time we got lost driving to the store). There’s always singing and dancing in the car. To stopping at a random store just to waste time. Deciding to try out a new recipe we saw on the Food Network, but then changing our minds. I even find myself loving when you wake me up early on a Saturday to clean the house. To be fair, I just like the fact that I get to play the music I want. You’ll pretend you know the lyrics and start dancing.

At the end of the day, all I can say is thank you. Thank you for listening to me complain about how stressed out I am. Thank you for making me tea when I’m working on school stuff. Thank you for loving me. But most importantly, thank you for being my mom. I definitely got lucky on that department.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Syllabus Week As Told By Kourtney Kardashian

Feeling Lost During Syllabus Week? You're Not Alone!

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
