8/27 Mom, You Are My Super Hero

You are tougher than Superman!

My mom and I
Taylor Davenport

Mom, I could go on and on about how great and wonderful you are but today I wanna talk about how much of a superhero you are. You have endured so much in life. From having me and my sibling, the nine months we were making you uncomfortable, to the day we were born.

The pain, emotions, and time you spend spent on us when we were little to the time we have now and love we get now. You work so hard to make sure we have what we need to live. You help us in every way possible whether it be homework, relationships, work, or life. You are always there.

You know how to work schedules into everything. Going from work to events to games you make it work. Mom you always show you resting side when we can't. You hold in the emotions till we are in bed or not near you. You tell us how it is and you comfort us.

I've seen you work even when everyone in the house tells you to go to bed. I've seen you do housework even when we say we are going to do it. I've seen you fall asleep doing work and telling you to go to bed but you wake up and continue working.

Nothing can stop you. You are my hero, doing everything in your power to make sure we have a good life. Any challenge in life you give us advice on how to handle it. You have to watch your kids grow into wonderful people and you can be proud of the people you raised.

Mom to us you are more than a mom. You are an advice giver, chef, judge, fight referee, caretaker, mediator, and a best friend. You can tell when we are upset and can tell when we need to chill out. You can read us like a book.

Honestly, I don't know what I could do without you. You are my rock and you have shown me what it takes to be a grown woman who can take care of her family and herself.

Mom, we love you and look up to you. You're a super mom and nothing less.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
