January 1 is around the corner, and we all know what that means -- New Year's resolutions! We have all made resolutions (whether we have kept them is another story entirely). Here is a list of common New Year's resolutions. Hey, you might find one or two on here that you've made!

1. "I'm going to work out more."

Whether we've phrased it as "get fit" or "go to the gym," we have all made this resolution. But why go to the gym when you can go to Buffalo Wild Wings?

Do the carrots and celery that come with my chicken wings count?

2. "I'm going to budget my money better."

Of course you are... after you hit up that sale at Victoria's Secret, and Bath & Body Works... and Target.

3. "My grades are going to come first this semester."

One of my personal favorites. We all have good intentions when it comes to our grades, but binge watching a whole seasons of friends on Netflix is sooo much easier than typing that paper for economics.

4. "I'm going to read more."

Again, why read when there's Netflix?

5. "I'm going to learn a new skill."

If that new skill is watching Netflix without having to press "continue watching," then sign me up.

6. "I'm going to be more productive."

We all say this, and then all of a sudden it's 5 p.m and we've only left the couch to use the restroom.

7. "I'm not going to wear leggings everyday this year."

Haha, okay.

Have you made any of the resolutions on the list? Did you keep them? If you did, kudos to you! And if not, better luck next year!

After turning 16, our parents start to push us to get a job and take on some responsibility. We start to make our own money in order to fund the fun we intend on having throughout the year.
