Dear ABC, I Don't Know How I Feel About Colton As The Bachelor

In the past year or two, I've been sucked into the world that is "The Bachelor," "The Bachelorette," and "Bachelor In Paradise." I can't help it, the show just pulls me in! I'm not the biggest reality show fan, and this is only the second one that's really got me - the first being "Dance Moms," of course.

I got really into Becca's "Bachelorette" season this year after watching her and all the drama that was Arie's "Bachelor" season. Colton was definitely in my top straight from the beginning; I wanted her to end up with Garrett after their first date, but I knew Colton was going to make it far. He's just what everyone wants to see: a muscular, gorgeous, sweet, puppy- AND baby-loving guy, who of course does charity work on the side. I mean, come ON! However, I really was disappointed when it was announced that he would be the next bachelor in this upcoming season.

First of all, Bachelor Nation has been watching Colton now all the way through "Bachelorette," and this season of "Bachelor in Paradise." He'll have been on the series for three seasons straight. I feel like I'm already best friends with the guy, after seeing him go through almost everything romance-related.

But not everything though, since let's not forget he's a virgin - just in case you haven't heard that enough throughout the show. It's great that he can make his own choices and not feel pressured, but it's just another thing ABC is going to overwork throughout the season. The sex talk will never end. I wanted Jason from Becca's "Bachelorette" season to take on the Bachelor role this upcoming season, but ABC knows Colton will give the best drama.

Tia has been a major part of not only the past two seasons of the Bachelor franchise, but Colton's life.

We all know they had a past, which only caused drama with his and Becca's relationship, and then almost everyone on "Paradise." Tia told Becca during the end of "The Bachelorette" that she still had feelings for Colton; but later on Paradise, Colton decided to try and move on from Tia and see other people (after having an emotional breakdown of course. What else is expected on the show?) I already know Tia will make an appearance either early on and stir things up from the beginning, or right when it's down to the last four ladies and Colton's getting ready to make his decision. I loved Tia on Arie's Bachelor season, but I loved her then and not after. I'm just not ready to sit through what'll feel like another season of Colton and Tia's not-so-relationship status.

So get ready Bachelor Nation for a sex-focused, Tia-interrupted, drama-filled and all together just repetitive season of "The Bachelor" starring Colton Underwood. Sure, I really wish it was Jason. I say all this, but you can catch me every Monday in front of my TV screen watching Colton hopefully find his future partner.

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!
