11 Struggles Of Having A Mother Cooler Than You

11 Struggles Of Having A Mother Cooler Than You
Kelsey Cantwell

I'm one of those lucky "Teacher's Kids" that actually had a mother who was a teacher that students looked up to. Everyone loves her. She's strong, independent, and she's the hardest worker I know. In fact, she's been teaching high school and adjunct college classes for about forty years. My senior year of high school, she was voted "Funniest Teacher" and "Favorite Teacher". One of her former students even filmed her during one of her sermons--I mean, lessons... It has over 1,000 views.


Here are some of the struggles I'm sure many of you with cool mothers face daily.

1. The only reason friends hang out with you is because she makes them laugh.

2. She steals your jokes but delivers them with more pizzazz than you ever could.

3. Old friends always ask how she's doing before they ask how you're doing.

4. She has more Facebook friends than you.

5. More of your friends from high school follow her on Instagram than you.

6. It's cute when she uses emojis incorrectly, but when you make an accident you're shunned.

7. You can't keep up with her when she raps along to Tupac.

8. You can't leave the grocery store without five different people coming up to you to say how awesome your mom is.

9. Your mom actually copied your hair cut, but it doesn't matter. You're still just tryna be like yo' momma.

10. It's not that people don't want to listen to you, they would just rather listen to your mom.

11. No matter how weird it is to know you're becoming more like your mother everyday, you can't help but smile because there is no one else you'd rather emulate.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
