2015 New Year's Resolutions Challenge in Gifs

2015 New Year's Resolutions Challenge in Gifs

As 2014 comes to a close, it's that time of year where we once again, make a completely BS, unrealistic list of resolutions that we all know will only last maybe like, 4 days total. 

But this year, I challenge you to follow these resolutions to live life to the fullest, become a better person, and ultimately kick the disasters of 2014 right in the crotch. 


1. Be kind to people, it's not that hard. Seriously. Being a raging b**** really isn't going to get you anywhere in life. We're all a little mean, just learn to keep it in your head.

 


2. Stop hating your relationship with food. It's okay to challenge yourself to eat healthier in 2015! Eat your fruits and veggies, but don't deprive yourself. What is a life without cake batter donuts?


3. Honesty is still the best policy. If you hate the way your best friend is late to everything? Tell her. If you have a friendship that isn't worth your time anymore, tell that person. Not only will it benefit your life but also the person you're being honest with. 


4. Do more of what makes you happy. Why continue to waste time doing things that don't give you enjoyment? I'm not saying to stop studying or doing your homework, but if the major you're working towards isn't going to give you lifelong fulfillment, what better time to change it than the present?


5. Start accepting yourself for who you are. It's time that you stop getting down on yourself for the little things and embracing your imperfections. It's the little quirks that make you who you are (which by the way, is a boss a** b****).


6. Stop taking other people's crap. Stand up for yourself, do what you gotta do. If someone can't do something you ask, do it yourself. Sometimes the most reliable person in your life is going to be you. 


7. Obviously, get in shape. Don't do it for anybody else, do it for you. Spring Break is right around the corner and you're going to look hot as hell if you stick to a realistic routine and just sweat it out at least 3 times a week. 

(Next week is 2015, get going.)


8. Be young. These years don't last long, so take them with a grain of salt (i.e. tequila and lime). Go out while you can, be jobless while you can, but get your sh** together when that time comes. 


9. Take advice from Chelsea Handler. She knows what she's talking about, guys. Chels managed to sum up the essence of the entire challenge in one sentence.

(Seriously, do it.)


So go out there, take 2015 by the reigns and ride it out because I have a feeling that it's going to be a life changing year.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
