Here's To The New Year's Resolutions

The New Year, New You

Here's to the new ear! That means a new year, a new me. A new way of coming up with new ways of bettering myself and health. Though it is the beginning of the new year, we usually end up coming up with New Resolutions that we sometimes don't always complete or get to do because of financial issues, or just plain out lazy. Well, how about we start out fresh this year with a simple new years resolution. A simple one like Acing that one Philosophy or Anatomy course that you heard from past students that it is complicated to pass. Why not just make that your new years resolution rather than something difficult that sometimes you won't be able to complete because of financial problems, or just because we have a busy schedule all year. It could also be your new year's resolution to make more time for other things like travel or even going to that wedding expo or that spontaneous road trip adventure you've been planning since the first year that you have yet to take. Why not that one? Why not that one?

Well, we can't really do that one because we don't have a lot of time on our hands. Unless you're rich, and you are able to do any type of spontaneous road trip when you want, but if that's the case, good for you! We all wish we could be like you, but sadly we aren't all like you and have to slave over a 500-1000 page book for our midterms, and we don't get free time until we complete that book or assignment. All work and no play makes us a dull girl or boy. Ahem, I'm sorry, that was out of line. Anyway, back to what we were talking about, ( dull girl or boy...) Agh! Stop it! (Okay...). Okay, it may have stopped for now, (Hopefully it's stopped.) So, even though it is the beginning of a new year, we strive over different ways to better ourselves and our lives. If you want to cut down on eating a lot of carbs, then, by all means, do that. After all, it is your new year's resolution. If you want to go work out at the gym and make sure you have the Baby got back bubble well taken care of, then keep going at it. You got this, sugar.

If it is your new year's resolution to better yourself by making it a goal this year to save money, then do it! Save as much as you can to make that dream trip across Europe happen. You never know what will happen if you don't go for it and see what happened. Remember, 2016 may have been horrible for you, but that doesn't mean 2017 will be the worse. It's up to you to make 2017 the greatest or the worse. We can't decide for you, only you can make it happen. So, get up now and go do it or else, All work and no play makes us all a dull girl and boy.

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.
