7 Things You Know When You're The Mom Of Your Crew

Whether we like it or not, some of us are just more maternal than others. And our tendency to take care of the random crying drunk girl in the bathroom has inevitably earned us the title of "mom" on more than one occasion. So here's to the unsung heroes of every party and date function- just remember, you're not like other moms, you're a cool mom.

1. How to deal with even the most hysterical bathroom drama.

From gassing the sobbing girl's ex-boyfriend to holding back the hair of a freshman who snuck past the bouncers, you can handle it all without spilling a sip of your gin and tonic.

2. How to fix any wardrobe malfunction.

If you haven't fixed a broken heel with double-sided tape pulled off your own boobs, who even are you?

3. How to make a f*ck boy cry.

Because ain't nobody messin' with your clique.

4. How to properly carbo-load before and after a long night of drinking.

The post-drinking pizza is just as important as the pregame pasta.

5. How to cure even the roughest hangover.

Every freshman will be at the philanthropy event Sunday morning and they will look good dammit.

6. How to talk to cops, nosey neighbors, and angry landlords.

"I'm sorry officer, but haven't you heard of some good ol' fashioned water pong?"

7. How to control even the most determined DAB.

Because every good mom knows the fine line between 3 tequilas and floooor.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
