1. Binge watch an entire series on Netflix.

We’ve all done it before, so there’s no real challenge there! Easy!

2. Eat at least one salad a month.

And then you can eat an entire pizza pie all to yourself the other 30 days!

3. Workout.

Even if it’s running up one flight of stairs because you forgot your car keys! Still counts!

4. Keep at least one friend for the year.

You and I both know it’s easy to lose touch with friends, so just keep that one!!!!

5. Aim to have triple digits in your bank account by the end of the year.

Turn that $10 bank account balance into $100!!!

6. Only drink 2 nights a week instead of 4.

Unless you don’t want to sacrifice your booze, which is fine. I understand.

7. Read a book.

Just one book the whole year. You got this.

8. Listen to a new artist on Spotify.

Turn off your Pop Hits playlist and listen to some indie songs. Get crazy.

9. Re-watch your favorite late 90’s, early 2000’s chick flick.

Because you’ve been meaning to, but you needed a valid excuse to do so.

10. Hope for a better year than 2016.

2016 took away Prince, Alan Rickman, Carrie Fisher, George Michael, David Bowie, Harambe, and countless others. Don’t get me started on the clown thing or the Mannequin challenge either.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…
