7 Old New Year's Resolutions

As we head into the new year, it’s time to make resolutions for a new year. The new year is here and it will wait for no one. So if you haven’t already made your own New Year’s resolutions, or need some inspiration, here’s a few resolutions that I’ve been making over the years that I have plans of actually doing this year.

1. Losing Weight


Almost every year I tell myself I will lose those few extra pounds I have and look more fit. Spoiler alert: it never happens. Or at least, it hasn’t happened yet. I still have hope.

2. Getting Healthy


This one really ties into that losing weight one up at number one. I always want to get healthier, but it always takes a back burner to everything else, unfortunately. But this year, I think I might actually do it. I have high hopes anyway, especially since getting the blender I wanted for Christmas.

3. Procrastinate Less

This is one bad habit I’m already in the process of kicking. Scheduling makes everything better!

4. Clean That Spare Room

You could replace spare room with any room or desk and chances are, you need to organize it somehow. My personal one is a desk right now; it’s a mess like you wouldn’t believe.

5. Hang Those Pictures


I think we’ve all got a stash of pictures somewhere that we mean to hang up somewhere. I personally have hundreds that still need to be hung or put into my scrapbook. Not to mention that I want to take even more that I’ll need to print and hang up somewhere.

6. Spend Time on My Hobby

My personal hobby is Crochet, but really, I think most of us could stand to use a bit more time relaxing with something relatively productive in the way hobbies tend to be.

7. Read My Bible More

I know a lot of people who have room for improvement when it comes to spiritual areas of their life. My starting point of improvement is reading my bible more.

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.
