Catholics everywhere are currently preparing for what seems like the longest forty days of the year: Lent. A time before Easter, it's tradition to give up something much like Jesus did when he roamed the desert for forty days. People often give up chocolate, soda, junk food, and things of that nature for these forty days. Here's a list of some other things to consider giving up for lent.

1. Starbucks Coffee

I know this one will be hard for a lot of people, but think about the money that will be saved for the forty days! We're talking a decent amount of money here girls!

2. The leggings and Uggs combo

This one will be especially hard for me, as I live in leggings and uggs. I'm talking rolling out of bed, throwing up a messy bun, and walking out the door in an outfit that is mimicked by nearly every girl on your college campus. It'll be hard ladies, but we can do it!

3. Saying any of the following words or phrases:

Literally, legit, I can't even, basic, oh my god and my absolute favorite word to use: LIKE.

4. Wine Wednesdays

Your liver will thank you for the forty day rest.

5. Makeup

Sorry girls, but maybe the world will be better with one less pair of winged eyeliner and overuse of highlighter. Your skin will thank you here!

6. Instagram and Snapchat Filters

As a big fan of the classic dog and the golden butterfly filter, this one will be ROUGH. Let's be real here, filters literally make anyone look 100 times better than without.

7. Fake Tans

This kind of speaks for itself. Forty days with one less Oompa Loompa colored girl will do the world a justice.

8. Quoting "Mean Girls"

A classic movie, for sure, but let's leave the army pants and flip flops strictly on Netflix for these forty days.

9. Pinterest

There's a dream wedding, and then there's your Pinterest dream wedding. Give your boards a forty day break!

10. Selfies

First the filters, now this?!

This is going to be a longgggggg forty days.
