December Is The Perfect Month To Start Moving On
freestocks.org

It’s December! So you know what that means. Yes, Christmas is coming (RIP to my bank account). But, that’s not all it has to offer. Because December is the last month of the year, you’ll get the chance to make sure whatever happened in 2017 stays in 2017. You may have an ex-lover that you’re trying to get over, a bad friend you can’t seem to get rid of or just bad energy in general. Instead of waiting until the new year begins, make December the month to start moving on.

Most people like to think January is the best time for a clean slate. But if you go into the new year with all of the drama and negativity from last year, what good is it to start the year like that? I mean come on, do you really want to start your new year getting over the last guy that screwed you over? No! Start now!

You might be thinking that since there are only a few weeks of the month left, I’ll start in January. It’ll be a new year and a new me. Stop being basic with the “New year, new me” bullshit. We all know it’s going to be January 1st, you’re going to be hungover and you’ll say, “I’ll start tomorrow.” Before you know it, it’s July, and you’re still dealing with the same issues as you were in February of 2017.

You still have a few weeks to pick yourself up and get back to the real you. Remember the bad ass bitch who doesn’t need a man or anyone for that matter to make her happy? You can still get her back and just in time to start the new year in a happy and healthy manner.

If it’s a bad friend that you’re dealing with, the best advice I can give is to either hash things out and try to mend the friendship, or just end the friendship right here and right now. Friends come and go, and odds are you’re going to make better friends as life goes on that won’t screw you over.

Don’t let anyone or anything stop you from making the right decision for yourself. Make it a point to start facing the issue head-on and confronting your problems as soon as they appear. I promise you your life will be less stressful, and you’ll be able to start feeling stronger in yourself and get what you actually deserve.

Stop your crying and look at your calendar! Think of all the wonderful positive possibilities that the new year has to offer.

I like to think of January as a clean slate. Waking up, knowing it’s a new year really makes me feel like I can reinvent myself. I always wonder where the year will lead. Every time I come the end of the year I reflect and look back at everything I wish I would’ve left in the year before. Who wants to look back with regret? (Hopefully, you answered with, “Not me.”)

Don’t wait until the last minute to start changing your life and bringing more positivity to it. Get rid of all the toxins, i.e. crappy friends, fuckboys, bad habits, the list goes on. Make December "move on" month, and make January a new chapter in your book of life. At the end of next year, you’ll be able to look back and be thankful that you did.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
