We all want to look good, but that doesn't mean it's easy. Looking like your favorite Instagram model in the Summer is something every girl wants, we want the tan, the body, the hair, the everything. But just because I may go to the gym every day in the months leading to warm weather or count my calories, does not mean I will automatically transform into looking like someone I'm not.

We would all be living our best life if we could eat whatever we want or sit on the couch all day and not gain a pound or feel lazy.

Here are 10 unfit thoughts I have when I'm supposed to be training for that summer bod.

1. If I get a spray tan I will go from a 5 to a 10.

While a tan always helps you look more alive, it does not make you look skinnier or more fit.

2. Waking up everyday thinking, "Maybe today will be a cheat day".

If everyday is your "cheat day," it's technically not considered a cheat day anymore.

3. I wish I looked like her.

Never, never, never compare yourself to others, we all were born with different genetics for a reason.

4. If I just lay in bed all day and not eat maybe I'll still lose weight.

Nope, not gonna happen girlfriend. To get results you have to work for them.

5. If I go to the gym 3 times a day it will speed up the process.

Tired this, doesn't work. All this does it make you tired and weak.

6. If I cut out every bad thing out of my diet forever I'll look the way I want to.

You might be able to do this for a little while, but it never lasts long and before you know it you'll be shoving junk food down your throat.

7. Juice cleanse, juice cleanse, juice cleanse.

It's called a cleanse for a reason. It's more unhealthy to do this everyday than to just limit your food portions.

8. Maybe he will finally notice me.

Never do this for a guy, always do it for yourself.

9. Why don't I have abs yet?

Sorry sweetheart, but it takes years of hard work to achieve this goal.

10. If I go to the gym, I can eat that bag of chips.

Don't do it to yourself. Don't ruin everything you just went to the gym for.

All in all, if you want to look good you have to do it the right way. Everything takes time and everyone has those bad thoughts, you're not alone. A healthy diet, an active lifestyle and lots of water are all you need.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
