Tis the season for monologues and cherishing remarks about closing year. Facebook statuses and hashtags about the new year and people changing because of it. "New Year New Me" brings excuses for change and positive outlooks on life to get rid of the negative memories of the previous year. It is a time for celebration but people see it as a time for change. I see it as a time where we should focus on taking care of ourselves so we are prepared for the year ahead. Here are 10 ways that we can be prepared to take care of ourselves for the new year:

1. Eat Healthy and Mindfully.

2. Keep Track of your Goals and Accomplishments

3. Don't Forget to Celebrate with Your Inner Child

4. Create a Playlist for New Year with Inspiring and Upbeat Songs

5. Get Cozy and Take a Nap

6. Start your Year with a New Book

7. Move Move Move

8. Unplug

9. Go See a Movie with a Friend or Yourself

10. Express Yourself through Writing or Art.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
