Another Semester Resolution: New Semester New Me?

Maybe this semester I will actually get a 4.0... or at least not stay up until 2 a.m. watching Netflix.

Another Semester Resolution: New Semester New Me?
Glenn Carstens-Peters

To be honest my "senior year bucket list" for last semester didn't exactly get finished. So, since I watched Netflix and did absolutely nothing all break, I decided that this semester would be the semester, the semester that I will accomplish my goals. So what that I say this every semester? This will be the semester that I actually do something. I mean, "new semester, new me" is obviously why I am going to crush it my last semester in undergrad.

1. That 4.0

The ultimate college goal, because "pain is temporary and GPA is forever". Also, my mom told me I can do it and that she is disappointed that I haven't done it more.

2. Read sometimes.

As great as Netflix is, sometimes it's a good idea to expand your horizon with books.

3. Do a cool workout.


First of all, working out is a lot of work and I got lazy in the search for a workout that is unique.

4.Get a tattoo.

I just want one... I have put a lot of thought into it, so don't worry mom.

5. Go to a concert.


...or like 50.

6. Save money.


...I guess I can't live by the "treat yo self" philosophy.

7. Go camping.


Fires, s'mores, and stars? Doesn't get much better than that!

8. Blog more!


Blogging twice a year is a terrible habit... get ready for three times a year!!

9. Cook at home more.

Supposedly it's good for you... all I know is that I get to make a lot of pancakes.

10. Spend more time growing spiritually.


This is the one thing that tends to take a back seat when business comes to play. That is a habit I need to grow from and I truly need to take my faith and relationship with Christ more seriously.


So, these are the 10 things that I hope to accomplish by the time May 5th rolls around. Here is to one more go at the whole undergrad thing. And may the magic of "new semester, new me" bless ya girl!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. 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.
