10 Reasons Why Moms Need A Spring Break Too
Janice Bacani

For anyone that knows me and who are still getting to know me, I am a wife, a mother of two young girls, a college student, and a SAHM. Now that Spring weather is slowly creeping in; I can't help but think about the last time I had a Spring Break. A break that is kid-free, husband free and drinks free that is not in a sippy cup. Moms totally deserve a full week of parties because after all, she's the reason why you are alive.

10. After the holiday season, that break deserves another long break preferably in Hawaii

9. It's Spring Break, and Mom's alabaster skin needs the sun

8. Someone said to me, "the little pitter patter of baby feet, leaves behind dear and sweet," But wait! Here come's the FLU in full force, and it's those sticky little-unwashed hands knocking everyone out in your family

7. After taking care of everyone in the house, Mom is now sick and does not get a sick leave when she gets the flu

6. Mom needs to eat, pee, and take a bath in peace. Yes, in that order, please!

5. As much as I like to be called Mama, nobody wants to be called every five seconds of their life

4. Mom needs to remember what sleep is really like

3. More reason to drink wine and re-live Mom's college memories with her Mom Squad

2. So your Dad knows what tired feels like when I leave for my Spring Break

1. Mom needs to prepare for your "Spring NO Break" in April

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
