In today's world, it is hard to not get wrapped up in having a work-life balance. The same goes for college students who have difficulty in devoting time to be a college student, having a social life and taking care of your health. Fortunately, we have people in our social groups who act as the "mom" to help you be responsibleand to take care of you. Here are some truths behind being the mom of the group in college...

1. You own a car that can hold a minimum of 8 people.

2. You have at least 2 first aid kits accessible at all times.

3.While most people can't even think about what it would be like to have kids, you feel like it's something you can handle.

4. You're not really up to date with what the kids are saying.

5. You are referred to you as “mom” or “mother” more often than your birth name.


6. Your closet is the go-to-closet your friends use when they run out of clothes.

7. You always volunteer to drive your friends to places, just to make sure they're safe.

8. You are the designated photographer and you are happy to get that angle and lighting.

9. You are really good at cooking food. Or at least no one will tell you any differently because no one wants to cook their own food.

10. You always carry a snack and water.

11. You make lists and the list never ends.

12. You can't say no.

13. You always ask people how they are doing and want a honest answer while trying to balance all of your emotions.

It's always good to have a mom of the group in college. Stay strong moms!

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.
