Things You Agree With Your Mom On But Will Never Admit

There is something about the special relationship between a mother and daughter that is basically impossible to explain. You love them with all your heart, but sometimes you can't stand them. There is almost a sense of pride that fills your head with competition making it hard for you to see eye to eye on certain subjects. Here is a list of a few times I have given my mom a hard time when I shouldn't have, and will never admit to admitting.

1. Not always answering the phone when someone calls. It used to irritate you when she would ignore phone calls or not reply to a text right away, but now you understand where she’s coming from. We’ve all become so accustomed to stopping what you’re doing to please someone else. Sit back down and enjoy your coffee with no interruptions.

2. Your taste in music is actually the same. Some might find it silly seeing a mom and a daughter dancing in the car together, but it’s okay to enjoy the same music. It’s not weird. I promise.

3. You look better without 10 pounds of makeup on. Yes, mascara can make a huge difference, but you’re beautiful the way you are. Plus, who are you trying to impress at Costco anyway??

4. The food she makes is actually very good. Most 20-somethings still aren't on board with the whole "eating healthy thing", but you’d kill to have another home-cooked meal instead of going to the caf.

5. You should’ve stopped being friends with so-and-so WAY before you actually did. Lesson learned: never ignore your mother’s instincts. She called it from the beginning.

6. Cleaning the house. You know you should’ve taken the trash out when you saw it was overflowing, but you chose not to for no reason. You never meant to make her mad.

7. Cutting/dyeing your hair was a huge mistake. It would be nice to believe you could make decisions on your own about your hair, but sometimes bringing mama along with you to the salon isn’t always a bad idea.

8. You are unbelievably grateful for everything she's done for you. She never puts herself first. Sometimes it's been taken for granted, but never unnoticed.

9. You love her more than anything. You might call yourself a daddy’s-girl, but you will never pass up an opportunity to embrace the love that only a mother could give.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
