New Year, New Resolutions (Part 2)

Let's try this again.

Looking back at my old resolutions I realized that I did NOT complete my goals. Yikes. Do I even try and make new ones to go through for the upcoming year? You bet I am. 2019 is actually going to be my year. I know I said that last year but that's before I experienced what college is actually like and this past semester at my new school really opened my eyes. So, let's try that again.

1. Self-Love

I told myself that I was going to love myself all throughout 2018, but clearly, that didn't work. I fell back into the hole that I was once in. But this upcoming year is going to be different, I met some new people who have made me feel more special than I ever have before. I joined a sorority and these girls are my lifeline now. They make me feel more amazing than ever and when I'm with them I feel safe and secure and loved. Before I can have someone love me (which is never going to happen), I have to love myself.

2. Workout more

I have a gym membership at school. I really need to use that especially since that was so expensive. I feel bad wasting money and I really need that money for other things especially since school seems to be so SO expensive.

3. No shits given

You've heard it here, folks. I'm giving up boys. This past semester has been nothing but stress all because of the male species. And I have had it up the last straw with boys causing me nothing but , and so in that mindset. I AM DONE. But I already know that as soon as I say that next thing you know another trouble-maker comes along. That's exactly how it works. I wish it wasn't like that but unfortunately, it is.

4. Confidence

I seriously need to work on confidence. Like not to be cocky but I have a really nice face and I just don't understand why I can't see that in myself. Like I am actually really pretty with or without makeup and I don't need makeup to make myself happy. I just need to accept that I am who I am and I need to be happy in my skin. It's not like I can change who I am and what I look like, so I need to learn to embrace it and know that I am beautiful and don't need anyone to tell me. I need to know it in my heart.

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: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

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
