College is a stressful time, full of new surroundings and new people. Most likely you came into this strange place alone but by the time you graduate, will leave with a group of lifelong friends. Here's a few thank yous' I forgot to give to my college best friends.

1. Thank you for stress eating with me.

There is no one else I would rather get McDonald's drive thru with at 1am before a midterm.

2. Thank you for being my mom when I need it.

I never realized how much we need Mothers in college. Luckily my best friend often fills that position. She is always there for me after I end things with a serious boyfriend, when I get sick and need someone to take me to the doctor and she's the one who talks me out of reckless decisions (like driving through blizzards and such).

3. Thank you for listening to me complain about college until 2am.

And for always telling me what I need to hear, rather than I want to hear.

4. Thank you for motivating me to go to my dreaded morning classes.

Rise and shine, you grumpy piece of crap!

5. Thank you for helping me through my homesickness.

Going away from home for school can be difficult, but with good friends it will feel like home in no time.

6. Thank you for pulling all nighters with me to help me study.

I will never forget the time you threw my flashcards at my head to keep me awake, you are a true friend.

7. Thank you pulling all nighters with me to party.

Nights of drunken stumbles, claustrophobic parties and midnight trips to Perkin's are mandatory for a full time college student.

8. Thank you for brainstorming new ideas on decorating my dorm room.

I will forever appreciate our late night Pinterest dates and you hanging pictures where I can't reach.

9. Thank you for watching hours of Netflix with me after a long day.

Nothing beats a long day of school like Arrested Development for a few hours.

10. Thank you for not judging me for eating a sleeve of Oreos for dinner.

Eating badly is what college students do!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
