With the new year upon us, I thought I would think about which New Year’s resolutions I would actually be able to keep. There are ways to help you make small changes into your daily routine which can have a big impact on your life overall! After all, we could all use some small, healthy changes to our sleeping, eating and studying habits, right?

Here's some resolutions you can actually keep for 2017:

1. Reading for classes a little bit each day.

Spacing out all my textbook reading and breaking it into chunks makes it so easy for me to concentrate and stay on task when I’m studying.

2. Drinking more water

I’m going to start carrying a water bottle with me that it is easy for me to stay hydrated throughout the day.

3. Getting some exercise in each week

Running two miles everyday is a little too hard sometimes. I think at least running for 10 minutes or taking a walk outside is doable on the days that I’m busy.

4. Being on time to things

I’m going to try to pack my backpack ahead of time and not walk out the door just five minutes before class starts. I have to stop cutting everything too close.

5. Waking up on time

I figured out that I would be able to wake up on time for classes more easily if I were to sleep earlier each night.

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.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
