New Years Resolutions

By: Matheus Oliveira

I'm sure by now we've all heard the phrase "new year, new me" but true change rarely ever

happens, especially around this time. The problem is that people either lack or lose the

motivation to seek out the change they so desperately wanted the day before.

Another thing that makes people give up on there new years resolutions is the fact that

they set a bigger goal than they can actually fulfill and sometimes they set too many goals that

they will never be able to keep up with. For me personally, I only have two goals for 2019. The

first one is to continue losing weight. Last year I lost 22 pounds bringing me to 148 pounds

which is the lightest I've been in over 10 years.190 being the heaviest .Seeing the number 148 on the scale is such

a huge accomplishment for me as I've struggled with my weight for almost my entire

life. My goal for this year is to lose enough weight to where I can mold my body into a

more athletic build and gain muscle mass in 2020. My second goal is to hopefully earn my blue

belt in Jiu Jitsu. This past year I've grown so much as a fighter. I've earned three stripes on my

white belt and hopefully I can earn my final stripe along with my blue belt in 2019.

These goals are both something that are not going to be easy to attain, but I am fully prepared

to put in the time and work ethic necessary to accomplish these goals and with hard work and

dedication I truly believe I can one day reach them. Happy New Years

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. 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.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
