"2020 New Year, New Me"

Last year, I spent the majority of my time napping. I am seriously not kidding when I say this. This year I am seriously trying to become healthier mentally and physically, so here is my list of what I am going to attempt to do.

"2020 New Year, New Me"

Workout:

I know it would be ridiculous to say " I am going to try and work out 3 times a week," so during 2020 I am just going to try to really work out more by doing more simple things such as walking instead of taking the bus to Old Main and going to work out classes at the Sanderson that genuinely seem fun.

Eat Healthier:

Last year I took way to many midnight runs to Cookout, so this year I am trying to cut out eating big meals past 8 p.m. I also am trying to have a more balanced meal, so I can feel better about myself.

No Naps:

Okay no naps is a little bit of a stretch, but I am trying to cut them out as much as I can. So far, I am only allowing myself two naps per week, which is a big step for me. Hopefully within the next month, I can stop napping completely, so I can have a better night's sleep.

Better Time Management:

This year I make a to do list the night before I go to sleep for the next day. This helps me make sure I get things done the next day, so I can stay on top of my busy college schedule. I also make sure to try and do my homework in between classes/ during the day , so I am not cramming the night before.

More Positivity:

I am trying to be a more positive person this year because it makes me feel better about myself. I am trying to have more "me time" this year, and not be surrounded my people constantly. I am also trying to make sure I make a time in the morning for a devotional.

Worry Less:

Last year, I got into a habit of worrying 24/7 from worrying about what I looked like to worrying about what others thought. For 2020 my main New Years resolution is to stop worrying about the pointless little things, and to be more grateful.

I know this list seems like a lot, but this will help me live a healthier and happier lifestyle! Hope everyone can enjoy this list and maybe pick up a few of these ideas to use for their New Year Resolutions! Woohoo New Year, New Us!

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.

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.
