But who’s to say that your phone can’t stop you from also living a happier and healthier life? These apps for your smartphone are sure to pass the test for taking up that precious storage space.

This is the app that can do it all. Not only does it track your workouts, but it keeps track of your health and everything you eat. The app has a huge (over 6 million) database of foods to help you track your diet. Whether you type in the food or scan it by the barcode, entering your daily calories is easier than ever. If you’re trying to lose weight or bulk up, My Fitness Pal determines the amount of calories you need and the exercise you need to reach your goal. It’s easy to see why this is one of the most popular fitness and health apps.

Waking for the day can be a little difficult at times, but incorporating yoga into your daily routine can make mornings way more bearable. Adding yoga into your routine just became a lot easier with this app, offering 10 minute classes that range anywhere from guided meditation to holding different poses. Don’t stop drinking your morning coffee, just add in a little bit of yoga to make the day better.

I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
