...and a stretchy New Year!

One of my biggest challenges is working out without having access to my university's recreation center. In order to battle this challenge over this upcoming Christmas break, I decided to find seven YouTube videos/channels (for the seven days of the week) with workout videos that I could do in my room at home.

1. Chloe Ting

Chloe has a variety of playlists on her channel, including workouts, travel, beauty, fashion and recipes. I love that most of her workouts are under ten minutes long. Even if I do not have time to do a full workout over break because of work or other obligations, I at least did something, even if it is a quick ten minute ab workout or a six minute butt workout.

2. Blogilates

I have done Blogilates workouts in the past and let me tell you, they kicked my butt. Cassey has such variety to all of her workouts, whether you want to do arms, abs, legs or cardio! She also has videos on her channel for healthy eats which is an awesome addition. Some of my favorite workouts of hers are her booty ones, they always make me so sore!

3. ICON UK | Danielle Peazer

I was drawn to this playlist because I absolutely love hip-hop. I danced in high school and was in hip-hop classes for three years. These workouts are so enticing to me because it makes the workout fun, while allowing me to reminisce on my high school days at my studio.

4. Pamela RF

Pamela only has two workout videos posted, however neither require equipment (besides an exercise ball!) and both are short enough to squeeze in before work or bed.

5. Fiercelivy

This channel is flexibility based, something that is incredibly important to focus on when working out. After a good workout, your muscles deserve a nice stretch. Since I moved to college and have not danced, I noticed my flexibility has diminished greatly. I am hoping that these videos will be a fun way for me to work on gaining my flexibility back.

6. Flow With Adee

This is another channel focused on flexibility but it incorporates yoga as well. If you could not tell, yoga is one of my favorite workouts lately! I love how these videos focus on certain areas of the body that may be tight or sore and provides stretching tips and techniques for them.

7. Yoga With Adriene

I have heard about Yoga With Adriene a lot recently, so I decided to check out her channel. One of her coolest features, in my opinion, is her playlist '30 Days of Yoga!' I just started yoga this semester and I am so excited that I can keep up with it over break. It is such a wonderful way to relax, de-stress, calm your mind and stretch!

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.

The Unwritten Rules Of "Talking"

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.
