5 Things I Didn't Do In 2018 That I'll Do In 2019

In This Article:

I hope everyone has done what they wanted this year. Here's what I know I'll do more of next year!

1. Go to museums. 

I really enjoy museums. I think they're great because you get to experience a piece of history or beauty with someone. Even if you go by yourself, it's wonderful to walk around and try to experience and understand the artist through their artwork. I didn't go to any this year and it's something I always had in the back of mind. Something always came up but next year, there are no excuses.

2. Go to Washington, D.C for a week. 

I went to D.C. earlier this year because I was looking at colleges I could attend. However, it's always been my dream to go for a while and really explore it...to see the Smithsonian Museum has been a dream of mind for as long as I can remember. I haven't seen the white house either. I hear there are some good restaurants around there as well. Every year I say I'm going to do this but it never happens.

3. Go on more roller-coasters.

I have a season pass to Six Flags but it may be going to waste because I hate roller coasters. I have the biggest fear of heights and every time I go, I cannot force myself to go on them. No matter how long I tried to mentally prepare myself for it. The reason why this is even a goal of mine is because my boyfriend really likes them and he wants to experience them with me. Honestly, it's too scary. We'll see how that goes next year.

4. Exercise.

I know this is everyone's goal, but I really want to get into exercising and eating right. I want to change my habits because it is important to me to be healthy. I can't find the strength to continue after I begin. I go right back to eating junk and being very sedentary.

5. Manage my time better.

This year I spent too much time working and found it hard to do much of anything else. I like working but I also want to focus on other things. I want to go to Museums or go to another state. I believe this is something that others can stand to do better as well.

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.
