New Year's Resolutions
Happy New Year 2017

It is that time a year where everyone starts the "new year, new me" type of stuff! Well, next year I do not plan on changing myself as a person, but I do want to make some lifestyle changes, get into bigger and better things that I am already in and am working on. I plan on getting healthier, and just doing more than I am already doing, or at least try to! Here are my new year's resolutions for the year 2017.

1. Losing the baby weight

As much as I loved having my little girl, I do not like having the weight! Baby weight can be a pain for any mom. A lot of moms struggle to lose all of that baby weight or even feel like they can! Many wish to lose anywhere from 30-50 pounds, so that is the goal this year!

2. A healthier meal plan

Along with losing weight, eating healthier is on this list as well! This year meal planning and getting healthy is key to a better, happier you! No more junk food, no more sodas and candy...as much as one loves these things, this is the year to cut back, and cut out some nasty eating habits!

3. Saving money

This year is the year to save more! This formula can is our change jar. We plan to fill it up, cash it, and save however much money we get, and then do it ALL over again! Change is something we all rarely think about until you start saving it and seeing just how much money we get from little pieces of change!

4. Taking more pictures

In the upcoming year, I vow to take more pictures of life and everyday beauty. Taking more pictures of family, life and happy moments. I also vow to print more pictures, having photos in a photo album; it just seems more meaningful.

5. Go on family outings

Who does not love going places? With our families at that? This year will be the year that we go to the zoo, science center, magic house, butterfly house, and many more places! I plan to do these things this year -- I hope you spend more time with your family as well!

6. Overcoming at least one fear

We all have things that scare us, whether it be bugs, clowns, heights, or even silly simple things like the dark. This year, one of these fears will be tackled and conquered -- 100 percent. Normally, fears are just all in our head, and I plan to rewire my thinking on at least one of mine.


Hello 2017, I hope you will be good!

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
