17 Things To Do This New Year

With the New Year here, why not try something new. It can either be a small event or a big goal to take on. And this might help out some of you who are looking to do something new or reach a goal for this year. And for some of us, finding a new year’s resolution or goal (that’s just right for us) can be tough. So here are a few ideas to consider.

1.Travel to another state and/or country.

2. Read an entire book series

3. Save a little amount of money each week until the end of the year. Whether its 10 dollars or 1, by the end of the year you’ll be happy you saved.

4. Stay off social media for a day or however long you’re comfortable with.

5. Volunteer somewhere. You’ll feel good about yourself afterwards. Whether it is at an animal shelter or a homeless shelter.

6. Eat healthy for at least a week. Try going vegan or detoxing your body for a while.

7. Quit a bad habit. For instance, quit smoking or biting your nails.

8.Treat yourself to something at least once a week. Buy yourself that favorite shirt you’ve been wanting or that snack you’ve been craving so much.

9. Try a new food.

10. Learn a new language.

11. Foster an animal. If you don’t want to fully adopt a pet, fostering one might be right for you. Not only will you keep an animal off the streets or out of a shelter, you will be giving them the love they deserve until they find their forever home.

12. Create a new food to show off to your friends and family.

13. Start a new tradition for the holidays or just in general.

14. Don’t stress as much. Take more time for yourself this year and take care of your mind and body. Even you need a break sometimes.

15. Meet new people. Yeah it’s nice to be alone, but it’s even nicer to have people around you that you can connect with, especially if they’re new.

16. Try not to procrastinate so much with school or work. This year try and stay on top of everything that is going on in your life. This might also help you to become more organized as well and push yourself more.

17. And most importantly make more time for those who matter.

The Unwritten Rules Of "Talking"

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
