Nothing feels worse than making a New Year's Resolution and failing to stick with it for more than a few days. This year, I have collected several responses from fellow (anonymous) college students to help you out with some resolutions you'll actually be able to accomplish! Remember: you have an entire year to get these done. Now get out there and succeed!

1. "Spend an entire day binge watching Netflix."

2. "Go to the gym at least once."

3. "Go the entire week without skipping a class."

4. "Use an entire eos chapstick by the end of the year (no losing it)!"

5. "Finish a box of wine in a weekend."

6. "Eat an entire small pizza by yourself."

7. "Say 'hi' to one person a day."

8. "Change your sheets once more than you did last year."

9. "Open that textbook you bought at least once."

10. "Think something nice about yourself every day."

11. "Actually take those vitamins your mom sent to school with you."

12. "Pet every dog you can."

13. "Drink more water!!! And more vodka!!!"

14. "Always say yes to mozzarella sticks."

15. "Memorize all of Fergalicious."

16. "Have more than $4.75 in your bank account at all times."

17. "Do your laundry before running out of clothes."

18. "Write the correct year on your assignments."

19. "Make sure Res Life doesn't find your bunny."

20. "No blacking out on weekdays."

21. "Dance less like a white girl."

22. "Don't fall asleep in the library."

23. "Procrastinate productively--learn the Single Ladies dance instead of doing that paper."

24. "Actually get rid of the clothes you don't wear."

25. "Call your parents once a week."

26. "Remember to take off your makeup before bed."

27. "Get a fish and don't name it after a human."

28. "Buy yourself some festive socks!"
