Your first semester of college is full of lots of questions, many of which only an expert could answer. In the case of your missing t-shirt or your need for your insurance card, the perfect expert to ask is your mom. Unfortunately, you're doing this whole adulting thing now, and she can't exactly tag alone (though sometimes you'll wish she could). Thankfully, we have the blessing of modern-day technology which makes her only a call or text away. Here are 10 phone calls you'll be making to your mom this semester:
1. “I forgot _________, and I really need it.”
I'm sure she knows where it is. She'll have it waiting at home for you the next time you come visit or she'll be super sweet and stick it in the mail.
2. “How do I make a doctors appointment? Do I even really need to go? Is it just allergies?”
These are all things you'll never know unless you call your mom (and of course, the doctor).
3. “I have four exams, three quizzes, and two papers due this week.”
Sometimes it's just good to vent about the enormous amount of work you have.
4. “So, where does the fabric softener go again?”
Washing machines are difficult, especially if you're new to doing your own laundry. Don't be afraid to ask.
5. “You won’t believe this.”
There is a lot of crazy stuff that happens in college (like a cow being on the loose on campus), and there is no one better to share a laugh with than your mom.
6. “I got such a good deal on these.”
Did you need those new Chacos? No, but they were 50 percent off, and no one loves a good deal better than Mom.
7. “Yes, I’m at my dorm.”
It may be a little hard for her to get used to you being away from home. If it gets to be late, you’ll probably get a phone call from Mom making sure you're safe and at your dorm
8. “Tell everyone I said hi and that I love them.”
It can be hard to make a phone call to everyone with such a busy schedule, but you still want them to know that you're thinking of them.
9. “I can’t make it home this weekend.”
This one is the toughest. Sometimes school and extracurriculars can get a bit overwhelming, and those extra two days seem like a saving grace. Trust me, she'll understand.
10. “I miss you.”
Leaving home is hard, and leaving your family is even harder. As time goes on, you'll get used to it, but during your first semester, it doesn't hurt to call and tell them how much you miss them every now and then.
