The New Year is approaching us. Every year, millions of people try to set a New Years Resolution. What will yours be? I have tried many times to set mine for losing weight or eating more healthy but have never stuck with it.

Why do you think so many people set resolutions but do not keep with it? A lot of people, like myself, set the same one each year. Losing weight and eating healthy.

People always make fun of there are new members at the gym instead of being supportive of those who want to better themselves they shame them. It takes a lot for someone to join a gym let alone work out in front of already fit and good looking people. It's hard.

They already took the first steps of trying to join and the problem is keeping up with it. It is easy to say they are lazy and don't want to make a difference.

Think about this. Instead of making a New Years resolution about losing weight or eating healthy, make one about being kinder to people. Having less hate in the world would be so much better, don't you think? Pay it forward. You always hear of these amazing stories of someone paying it forward. Make that your resolution. Do not judge people.

Make a difference... it will go a long way, even if it's something as small as buying the person's coffee or food behind you in line. Or buy some flowers at the grocery store and give them to the person behind you. Be a positive difference to someone in the world.

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.

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.

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.
