• This is Dedicated to My Mother

  Here’s to my mother, who has put up with all my shit for my entire life.  I’ve been a dramatic, know-it-all, arrogant, callous bitch from day one, and I’m surprised my overemotional, sympathetic, and empathetic mother never got tired of me.

  She and I are the same in only aspects that cause us to clash.  Both of us are stubborn as hell and like to hear ourselves talk.  Thank you for these traits, because without them, I wouldn’t be the persistent female I am today.

  I’ve always been the princess in the family.  I’m the first daughter, and my dad grew such a preference to me, so I always had to have what I wanted.  She always gave in, almost every single time.  Thank you for putting up with my spoiled antics.

  I always tried to live up to her standards, but I never put in enough work.  I always had goals that aligned with hers for me, but I never worked hard enough to get them.  I guess that’s part of my arrogance.  I’m sorry for not making you as proud as you should be.

  Happy Mothers’ Day!
