A new semester equals a new start. Setting new goals can help you reinvent yourself, as little or as big as you see fit. For me, I have set goals for myself, as you should too. Here are a few of the goals or other events that I am looking forward to this year.

1. Starting new classes in a new major.

This summer, I had a change of heart and changed my major. I am ready for the fresh start, and being able to do something I love. I am now a journalism major, and am excited to start improving my writing and content.

2. Being able to see my friends 24/7 again.

All summer, I never saw my friends. I really only have college friends left. Living with my best friend is an amazing experience. It's a sleepover party all the time. I love spending time with my friends, getting food, and just being overall those people who take up the whole sidewalk.

3. Having classes with my best friends.

This is the first semester that I have had classes with my whole gang. It awesome to be able to have others to rely on when you cannot find the answer, or just need a study buddy.

4. Sorority recruitment and anticipating all the new members.

Recruitment is an exciting and nervous time on both sides. This is my first year as a recruiter, and being able to be a voice on the next generation of my chapter is rewarding.

5. Getting closer with my sorority sisters.

I'm shy, reserved, and like to spend a lot of time in my bed. Last year, I didn't get to the house to hang out with my sisters as much as I would have hoped. This year, I live in the house and different sisters are over all the time.

6. Making an impact in my chapter.

I've always loved having a leadership position in whatever I'm doing. I'd love to continue doing the same thing year.

7. Themed parties and socials.

Themed parties and socials are the best. People stick with the theme so much and go all out. Toga is such a fun time!!

8. Getting better grades.

Spring was rough grade wise, after a great first semester. I want to get my grades back on track (AKA aiming for that 4.0!!!)

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.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
