17 Resolutions to Make in 2017

2016 went by in the blink of an eye and now it's already 2017. How many of you stuck to your New Years resolution last year? If you didn't, it's okay. It's 2017 now, and the New Year calls for a chance to a new start. However, making and sticking to a resolution can be tricky. This year, find a resolution that is important to you and stick to it. Here are seventeen ideas for your New Years resolution this year.

  1. Go for a run at least three times a week.
  2. Pick up a new hobby like scrapbooking or yoga.
  3. Read more books than you did last year.
  4. Learn a new skill that will look great on your resume.
  5. Keep a journal and write in it anything you want to remember.
  6. Start a blog about anything that interests you.
  7. Volunteer at a local animal shelter.
  8. Attempt to incorporate more fruits and vegetables into your diet.
  9. Fix your sleep schedule and get 8 solid hours of sleep a night.
  10. Limit your social media time each day.
  11. Spend more time with better people.
  12. Eliminate those people who bring you down from your life.
  13. Eat breakfast; even just a yogurt is a quick and easy breakfast on those days you're in a rush.
  14. Overcome a fear you've always had whether it be as simple as riding a roller coaster for the first time or as scary as telling that person you love him or her.
  15. Learn to relax more. While work is important, it is equally important to have some time to do what you enjoy. Set aside at least an hour each day to have some "me" time.
  16. Travel somewhere and plan a vacation to a place you've always wanted to visit.
  17. Become more organized. Clean your room, order your documents, make a schedule. Organization is important.

2017 is a new year and a blank page. You choose how to write your year. So what will you write?

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
