5 Goals For 2020

It's that time again! As we wrap up another semester and wrap up another year this is when people get burnt out or motivated to change! I want to change for the better through what I've gone through this semester, both good and bad. But I am going to go into the next year being optimistic and ready for change and improvement.

1. Write my book.

If you have known me for a long time, you have known I love to write. Writing stories is more of my style than writing blogs and news-like articles, so I want to write a book. I've talked about it but I have never gotten around to doing it. But after some long self-reflection, I need to write my book. Overall, I want to accomplish something and/or create something.

2. Get strong.

I have never been much of a fitness and sports-oriented person until recently. Although I do not go as often as I should, I really do enjoy working out. But what I want to see is results. I know there is a lot of work in having a body transformation but I think it is attainable. I know it will take a lot of work but I really want to know how people work out to get toned and muscle definition.

3. Make a YouTube channel.

This is my most personal goal, you always hear about people making YouTube channels to get money or become famous. But that doesn't mean anything to me. I want to have it to look back on all the memories and see my growth.

4. Lose weight.

There's not really a set number and this is all for health reasons. You are beautiful at any size. My weight has fluctuated a lot the past two years and I have noticed when I am thinner, I sleep better, I'm happier, and most importantly, I have more energy.

5. Be positive.

This I think everyone can work on. Too often we focus on what is going wrong in our lives but not what is going great. We do not give ourselves enough credit. You are doing great!

Those are five goals I have for myself going into 2020!

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
