"2020 New Year, New Me"

Last year, I spent the majority of my time napping. I am seriously not kidding when I say this. This year I am seriously trying to become healthier mentally and physically, so here is my list of what I am going to attempt to do.

"2020 New Year, New Me"

Workout:

I know it would be ridiculous to say " I am going to try and work out 3 times a week," so during 2020 I am just going to try to really work out more by doing more simple things such as walking instead of taking the bus to Old Main and going to work out classes at the Sanderson that genuinely seem fun.

Eat Healthier:

Last year I took way to many midnight runs to Cookout, so this year I am trying to cut out eating big meals past 8 p.m. I also am trying to have a more balanced meal, so I can feel better about myself.

No Naps:

Okay no naps is a little bit of a stretch, but I am trying to cut them out as much as I can. So far, I am only allowing myself two naps per week, which is a big step for me. Hopefully within the next month, I can stop napping completely, so I can have a better night's sleep.

Better Time Management:

This year I make a to do list the night before I go to sleep for the next day. This helps me make sure I get things done the next day, so I can stay on top of my busy college schedule. I also make sure to try and do my homework in between classes/ during the day , so I am not cramming the night before.

More Positivity:

I am trying to be a more positive person this year because it makes me feel better about myself. I am trying to have more "me time" this year, and not be surrounded my people constantly. I am also trying to make sure I make a time in the morning for a devotional.

Worry Less:

Last year, I got into a habit of worrying 24/7 from worrying about what I looked like to worrying about what others thought. For 2020 my main New Years resolution is to stop worrying about the pointless little things, and to be more grateful.

I know this list seems like a lot, but this will help me live a healthier and happier lifestyle! Hope everyone can enjoy this list and maybe pick up a few of these ideas to use for their New Year Resolutions! Woohoo New Year, New Us!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
