Why TK Panther Is Bae

Aw TK! Aw TK!

Why TK Panther Is Bae

Okay, so we set the spotlight on TC last week.

He's a pretty cool cat, but more importantly he's a pretty cool older brother to TK.

TK is the University of Northern Iowa's second mascot, a new addition to the UNI community since 2010.

To match TC's intimidation, TK brings the sass and a style of her own to UNI.

She rocks the flower crown, too.

TK also loves not only loves the students of UNI, but the families of UNI.

Aside from the UNI community, TK also loves to support the Cedar Valley community, for example, her support of the Waterloo Black Hawks through the pink Waterloo Black Hawks jersey and adorable tutu.

She loves to cheer on the Panthers, often helping out the spirit squads and hanging with the pep crew.

And, as a pep crew member I can accurately say, we love hanging out with her, as well.

Even if it is at 6 a.m. on a Tuesday as we wait for a 7 a.m. basketball game.

There's no doubt she rocks the marching band uniform when she hangs out with the cool cats that make up the pride of Panther Nation: The UNI marching band.

And TK isn't just TC's little sister, but she's in a way, a superhero for little kids. Like, TC can be pretty intimidating when he wants to be, which could scare little kids. TK's a little less intimidating.

(Let's be honest, I just wanted to use that reference because TK had a superhero cape on.)

She's also quite the charmer.

"He had the certain sparkle in his eye."

And she knows that Iowa truly is a Panther State.

As I said of TC, TK's pretty approachable. And, if TC's too intimidating, TK's a little more approachable. But they're both super sweet. So, don't hesitate to snap a picture with TK or give her a high-four or challenge her to a dance off.

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.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

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.

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!
