Bible Verses and Other Quotes for the New Year

With every new year comes the time to make New Year's resolutions where we look at ourselves and focus on what we could do differently or what we could spend more time focusing on in the New Year. We often hear the phrase "New Year, New Me" referring to these changes that we would like to make. In all reality, the majority of us who set out to do things differently in this new year end up falling off track or putting our time and energy into other things, forgetting what our goals were. We also often lose motivation. Here are some Bible verses and other quotes to keep in mind while trying to achieve your New Year's resolutions:

1. Isaiah 43:18-19

2. Job 8:7

3. Ezekiel 36:26

4. Jeremiah 29:11

5. Isaiah 40:31

6. Psalm 51:10

7. "Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear." - George Addair

8. "Your life only gets better when you get better." - Brian Tracy

9. "Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time." - George Bernard Shaw

10. "For last year's words belong to last year's language. And next year's words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning." - T.S. Eliot

11. "With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts." - Eleanor Roosevelt

12. "Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach." - Tony Robins

13. "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude." - Maya Angelou

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
