Thank You Mom

Thank you mom, for everything you do. I don't know what life would be without you.

Thank You Mom
Kayla Hinton

I wish I could show you how much I love you but it seems impossible because it is such an infinite amount of love. You have the hardest job out there, caring and protecting me. I am so beyond blessed for all you have done and I want to give you thanks.

Thank you for always loving me.

I have been hurt by boys. I have been to the point of feeling like there is no point anymore all because of a stupid broken heart. You mended what I once thought couldn't be fixed. You showed me what love really is and what it really can be. I thank you for showing me that, it has made me stronger and opened up my heart more than ever.

Thank you for letting me vent.

Not many people are good listeners. However mom, you are. We will be driving in the car and I am screaming at the top of my lungs because of something that has frustrated me and your responses/advice amaze me. You either will be calmly agreeing or going of the hinges along side your daughter. Thanks for letting me talk to you about my biggest problems, but the worlds smallest.

Thank you for putting me first.

You have gone through a lot. You have lived this life much longer than I and you have worked so hard in your career. For what? For me. For your kids. You are selfless, you are strong you are everything I hope to be if I ever become a mom.

Thank you for understanding my personality.

You are the only one that truly understands my mind. Perhaps it was because you literally made me or perhaps it's because you basically are super women. I think majority of people see me and think I am insane. However, you mom, you think I am the worlds most perfect human being despite my flaws. You are accepting to not only me but the world, not many people are like that, so thank you.

Thank you for being strong.

You are strong when no one expects you to be. You constantly put on a brave face and never let your kids see you breaking. You know how hard that is for a human to do? You are always the one holding and hugging me when I'm down. You put us before you and all your problems. Thank you for being strong, but just know it is okay not to be, I am here.

Thank you for supporting me.

I could want to work at fast food the rest of my life and you know what you would say? "Whatever makes you happy, I'm happy." You don't doubt or question my choices. You accept them. You back up whatever I want to do in life. I have changed my major multiple times and each time you have given support that I didn't even ask for. Thank you for never doubting my capabilities.

Thank you for being you.

Lastly, thanks for being you mom. How is it that there 7.5 billion people in this world and I got blessed with you? Whenever I am sad, happy, indecisive, under appreciated I look to you. You may not think you are the best mom but I am telling you, you are. My opinion is the only one that should matter. I just hope you know how thankful I am for everything you do and don't cry too much after reading this.

I LOVE YOU!

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
