1. Save $$$$$

Like Bruno Mars says it, "Spend yo money like money ain't s***!" Yes, yes it is fun to go out on weekends and splurge that paycheck you just got. But this is a new year!!! Make it a goal to save at least $15 dollars a week. That's at least 2 Starbucks drinks, that you can live without. At the end of the month, you'll have $60. Then, when February comes around, save $20 dollars a week. It'll make a difference, trust me.

2. Become healthy

A healthier lifestyle means a healthier you and a longer life. Work out and eat right so you can be spring break ready!!! Stop the one-week diets and the trip to the gym once a week. Make it a lifestyle and it will change everything. You will have healthier skin and hair, a rockin' bod, and a more positive attitude. Which brings me to my 3rd resolution!

3. Stay Positive

It’s very hard to let small things bother you and mess up your day. But take a deep breath and move on. Ask yourself if it will matter in 24 hours, and if it doesn’t… don’t get too torn up about it. This year try to think “glass half full.” It will change your day drastically… TRUST ME!

4. Better grades

Did you have a semi-rough semester this past fall?? Study more!! Be organized with your schedule and assignments. Stay ahead and study harder. I promise when you walk into the classroom to take the test, you will feel so much more prepared. Even if you don’t end up with an A, if you put in a lot of effort for that class, that grade will mean so much more.

5. Stay close to God

It can be hard to stay true and connected with God during college. You get busy with school, friends and at Alabama of course, football. Your week might get super busy and you can’t make it to bible study or church. This year, make time for God. He gave up so much for us, His love gives life.

Happy New Year!!!
