11 New Year's Resolutions You Won't Keep As Told by The Office

Each year millions of people promise themselves they will do something different in the upcoming year. Whether it's eating healthier or traveling the world, most people want to see a change in the new year. As college students, we have a lot we could improve on, so claiming a resolution is easy. However, sticking to it is the tricky part. Here's to all the resolutions college students won't be sticking to this year.

1.Eating Healthy

Seriously- why do people even say they're going to do this?

2. Staying Fit

It's like eating healthy- why bother? We all know you'd rather lay in bed and watch netflix than go to the gym.

3. Actually Going to Class

Like you're actually going to leave your cozy bed for that 8am....

4. Staying Organized

If you think you're going to use that planner that you got for Christmas then more power to you!

5. Concentrating on School

It's Thursday night and everyone's going out, you're not going to stay in to study for Macroeconomics are you?

6. Make New Friends

If you already have friends why make new ones, don't fix it if it's not broken right?

6. "Enjoying Life to the Fullest"

To be honest, I'm not even sure what people mean when they claim this as their New Year's Resolution, but I'm positive they're not going to keep it.

7. Spending Less Money

You told yourself you wouldn't spend those Christmas checks until the new year.... but then you saw those new boots you've been eyeing up were on sale!

8. Rembering About Your Online Class

You took a class online so you wouldn't have to leave your room. Yet every week you forget to do the work.... and you will probably continue to forget to do the work.

9. Making Your Meal Plan Last

There's three weeks left in the semester and you are all out of dining dollars which means you're starving through the last few weeks... again.

10. Spend Less Time on Social Media

You know you should delete the apps off your phone, but on the inside you're like...


11. Reading the Textbook

You'll open it up during Syllabus week, but then probably not again until you're packing to go home.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
