It's almost New Year's Day and you know what that means. It's time for us to make our resolutions, keep them for a month then give up and wait until next year. Here are seven New Year's resolutions people don't follow through with.

1. I will start going to the gym

A week before New Year's this idea sounds good, but then a week or two after New Years, running on the treadmill and doing spin class doesn't seem like such a good idea anymore.


2. I will stop spending money

You can do this! It shouldn't be so hard to stop spending so much money... until you see those cute new shoes you wanted!


3. I will start eating healthier

It shouldn't be that difficult to cut back on all our unhealthy eating and snacking, but that hamburger does look good one bite won't hurt!


4. I will start drinking/ smoking less

Sadly this is a resolution I wish more people would stick with, but not many do.


5. I will spend less time on social media

This resolution is definitely one that I say I will keep but ultimately never do. So many people, including myself, are addicted to social media and no matter what.. we won't give it up.


6. I will be more social

Yes, I much rather be in bed on Pinterest then interacting with a bunch of people I do not like, and I am not sorry about it.


7. I will stop going on Netflix so much

Most people can actually do this resolution for a while until the newest season of Orange is the New Black or Stranger Things comes out.

I am sure most of the world will not keep their resolutions past March, but the ones that do, we applaud you!!!

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.
