12 Times Calling Your Mom In College Was Totally The Move
The CW

If you're anything like me, your mom is your best friend. And if she's not, you can bet that she's at least always right, or at least in my mind she is. Mom's have this unbelievable power of knowing just what to say when you're upset, mad, happy, confused, or any other emotion you could think of.

Here are 20 times it's totally been the move to cuddle up and call my mom and I'm sure they're times you've called your mom too:

1. Just to say "Hey"

Giphy

2. "Hey, do you think I can still eat this?"

Giphy

When food has been in the fridge for like 3 days or was it 8...? Sounds like a good time to call your mom.

3. Cause you're stuck eating alone 

Giphy

All your friends may be busy but when it comes to her baby, your mom never is.

4. To ask how to do laundry 

"Hi! Do I put the detergent than the softener? Are they the same thing?" It's okay, we're all still a little new to the whole laundry thing.

5. For pet pictures

Giphy

"Can you just send me a picture of the dog?"

6. When you finished the Netflix binge you were loving

Giphy

*pick up the phone to hysterical cries because you finished the series you were too attached to*

7. When you got an A on that test you thought you failed!

Giphy

Nobody is a bigger fan of you then your mom.

8. And.... when you failed that test you thought you failed

Giphy

Nothing can be a better reminder that there is more to life than that one test then your mom.

9. When your symptoms are x, y, and z...

Giphy

do you think I'm dying? Already dead? Well WebMD says I'm dead so...

10. To tell her you need money

Giphy

"Sooo I overpaid for alcohol, ate through my snack stash, and mac & cheese haul, and joined like six clubs that all have dues and I want to rush.... so can I have some money, please?"

11. When you want to spill some family sized tea

Giphy

"Hey I know it's 12 AM but whatever happened to Aunt Brenda???? Also, I heard cousin Jake got girlfriend pregnant. And why are Aunt Caroline and Mark getting remarried?"

12. When you're counting the days until you can hug her 

Giphy

and pester her with all your nonsense!

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
