College Guide: 10 Easy New Year's Resolutions
PEXELS

1. Wake up at least an hour before class. This will give you ample time to get ready and feel awake before class. This positive start to your day will make the new year sparkle!

2. Eat breakfast. I don't care if breakfast is only a handful of almonds, just make sure to eat SOMETHING for breakfast. Not only is this great for dropping holiday weight but it provides you with more energy.

3. Give something up. From that 2nd cup of coffee to the nightly glass of wine, attempt to cleanse your body by giving something up for at least a week.

4. 2017 is a great time to focus on health and nutrition. This semester join a fitness class to get your body moving.

5. Start the new semester with the goal to learn something new and achieve high grades. Hope to make honors this semester? Just trying to finish college? No matter the goal, set it and go after it.

6. Detox negative people from your life. From mean "friends" to old boyfriends, clear out ALL the negativity.

7. In the spirit of cleaning, make sure to clean out your dorm room, junk drawers, and closet of all those clothes you don't need. Consider donating them!

8. Get out of your style comfort zone. The hair cut from sophomore year of high school is not cutting it anymore, so try out a new look!

9. Try to be more organized. If you lay out your clothes and pack your bag the night before, the morning will be a lot easier.

10. Go to bed 8 hours before that alarm goes off. Your body and mind will thank you.

Happy 2017!!!

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
