The new year calls for new resolutions. 2017 is quickly approaching and it's time to reinvent yourself and have an even better year than the current one. Everybody stresses about having only one New Years' resolution and making it perfect. On New Years it's totally okay to have multiple resolutions.

Taking on these resolutions will surely improve your year and help you improve yourself!

1. Stop Procrastinating

It's time to get things done. No more being lazy. If you have something to do, do it!

2. Meet new people

Go out and be as social as possible. Meeting new people increases your chances of new opportunities. Make new friends and have fun, you never know what will happen!

3. Take chances

Don't doubt the things you do, if something new and interesting comes up, grab it and run with it.

4. Grab more sleep

Sleep is a very vital key to staying healthy. It's important to get the right number of hours of sleep to have a successful day the next day. Schedule naps during the day and a certain time to go to bed.

5. Take on more "me time"

Your life is about you. It's important to shower yourself with love and things you like to do. Do more things for yourself and stop worrying about everybody else. Make sure to schedule times to go to the mall, or get a manicure or even just relax.

6. Spend more time with people that matter

Don't waste your time on ignorant people who you don't care about. Use 2017 as a tool to narrow down who your true friends are.

7. Become organized

Organization is key. No more mess around the house or in your workplace. Take the time to organize your life and be more keen with it, it's important!

8. Learn to rely on yourself more

You won't always have people helping you out with things. You have to rely on yourself to get things done. Make sure when you take on something you are able to successfully complete it without heavily relying on others.

9. Learn to be happier with life

"I choose to be happy today!" Wake up and say that quote every day. If you follow that, your year will be full of positiveness.

Happy New Year!

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
