10 Things You Still Do In Your 20s If You Are Totally, And Unapologetically, A 'Momma's Girl'

Personal Image

It seems to me that few bonds exist stronger than that of mother and daughter.

"Words are not enough to express the unconditional love that exists between a mother and a daughter."
– Anonymous

You call her up in a heartbeat, whether it's to spend a day on the town, a day in front of the TV, or simply to hear her voice. You rely on her for her support, smiles, and so much more. If you're a momma's girl like me, you'll most definitely catch yourself doing these things on a daily basis.

You call her seventeen times per week, minimum.

There are endless reasons to call your mom! Add up all of the strange questions, funny stories, and bad moods, and you're obviously gonna dial her number more than once a day.

You text her 24/7.

Giphy

Messaging her makes the day go faster and keeps a smile on your face. Don't try and tell me you don't overuse the gifs and emojis in your conversations, because you know you do. No shame, though!

You run errands with her.

Giphy

Doesn't matter if it's Target, Walmart, or Giant. If you enjoy your mom's company like me, running errands with her can be a blast! Who knows, maybe you'll accidentally end up at TJMaxx along the way.

You complain about annoying people with her.

Giphy

No explanation necessary. If you don't dislike the same people, are you even bonding at all?

You hug her all the time (obvi).

Giphy

There's nothing greater than the feeling of one of your mom's hugs! You could swear she's a professional or something...

You share the feels over all of your favorite movies and TV shows.

Giphy

If she's not gonna be your shoulder to cry on when you've gotta wait an entire six months for a new season of The Good Place, then who is?

You miss her cooking when you're away.

Giphy

Your food (err, umm...Pizza Hut's food) is decent, but there's nothing like your mom's home cooked meals.

You count down the days until it's time to come home and visit.

Giphy

You cherish being on your own, but she's your mom and you miss her! Can't help that.

You crank up the radio with her when a jam comes on.

Giphy

She raised you on her music, and you can't help but love it as much as she. How can you not sing along when Bon Jovi comes on?

You know in your heart that she's your best friend in the whole wide world.

Giphy

It is a beautiful thing when you go from being simply mother and daughter to friends.

She's your closest confidant, and no one understands you better. She'll be there for you if nobody else, and you share your best and worst days with her. She loves you without any conditions, and you couldn't ask for a higher honor than to be her daughter.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
