College students, you might be able to relate to this one. These probably sound familiar because we often tell ourselves these phrases; however, we are unable to follow or agree with these the following, deep down inside of our overwhelmed, tired minds.
1. "No more spending money on useless things"
Until you walk into a 99 cents store and suddenly have the urge to pick up anything that's less than a dollar.
2. "I'm going to be a responsible adult"
Well, I did my own laundry if that counts.
3. "I will stop spending so much money on food"
My eating routine consists of breakfast, breakfast part 2, brunch, brunch part 2, lunch, lunch part 2, dinner, dinner part 2, and a midnight "snack".
4. "I will take great notes in all of my classes"
Expectations, sigh.
5. "Goodbye, procrastination"
Although I spent more than 12 hours on this paper, I'm sure I can finish it by 3 a.m.
6. "I had a great, relaxing weekend"
Said no college student ever. What's a weekend without 3 papers, 2 presentations, and 2 tests worth 50% of my grade?
7. "I don't miss homemade food"
I had the wonderful opportunity, as a commuter student, to try food from the campus dining hall. I have to admit that I am so grateful for homemade food!
8. "I'll start studying for finals one month early"
This one is quite difficult of a goal to accomplish since the curriculums haven't been completed yet. Nonetheless, we can start revising old notes in the meantime.
