6 New Year Resolutions To Follow
Piotr Lohunko

Let's be honest, we all make New Year Resolutions that we never stick to. Finding a resolution isn't the hard part; it's following them. So, perhaps we set our expectations for our resolutions too high. Little do we realize, there are simple resolutions we can follow. Here are 6 resolutions you can make in the New Year, or for that matter, any day of the year.

1. Exercise

I know what you're thinking. Everyone makes this a New Year resolution, right? Well maybe you're thinking too far into this one. Exercising doesn't have to be a daily task of going to the gym and working out. Exercising can be as simple as walking more or doing chores around the house.

2. Stay Positive

Staying positive is a great New Year resolution. Try to get rid of all the negativity in your life. Being positive creates less stress and will make the New Year not only a better year for you, but a healthier year for you.

3. Eat Healthier

Of course, I know we've all tried this resolution. Eating healthier doesn't just mean dieting and cutting out all of your favorite foods. You can do something as simple as adding more vegetables on your plate and drinking more water.

4. Make Time for Yourself

It's important to make time for yourself. Don't force yourself to be everywhere at once. Find a safe space and do something you enjoy every once in awhile.

5. Meet New People

This resolution doesn't mean cutting out people in the New Year that you've already met, it means keeping them and meeting more people. It's always good to meet new people because it could lead to better opportunities and expands your social life. Besides, you can never have too many friends, right?

6. Get Involved

Do something different. Join a club, get a job, participate in community service, raise awareness. There's always something you can do to get involved. I believe this is a great resolution to follow.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
