I've always loved kids' things ever since I was a kid, up until now, being 21. A lot of people tell me to grow up. I'm not going to, but here are some ways that prove being immature could make you the best parent ever.

1. Kid movies.

You love watching kid movies, so when they ask to watch Minions for the fifth time this week, you're excited about it too.

2. Movie soundtracks.

This goes hand in hand with number 1. When they ask to hear that one song from Coco for the third time today, you'll most likely want to hear it too. (I mean you'll definitely be singing it all day anyway.)

3. Nap time.

You can take a nap while they are too.

4. Nightlights.

Speaking of sleeping, you might not have to have a scooby doo nightlight, but you need a TV on playing your favorite show that you've seen a million times.

5. Sparkly and glitter-anything.

They see something at the store, and you also are freaking out about it too.

6. Fruity shampoo.

They like having their hair smelling like strawberries and you love having yours smell like green apples.

7. Boy bands.

Even if you can't relate to having girl/boy trouble because you're most likely married, you love listening to your kids' One Direction or BackStreet Boys.

8. Youtubers.

Keeping up with Jake Paul and seeing what he's doing. Ok, maybe not Jake Paul, but whatever Youtuber the kids are into nowadays.

9. Any new trends.

You love staying up to date with things the kids love.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
