Yes, it’s that time of year again, where everyone is all over social media proclaiming their New Years’ Resolutions. You’ve heard it before, “New year, new me!.” Well, that’s a load of crap. You know why? Because I like who I am, and I don’t feel the need to change myself. So, instead of giving you a list of things I’m going to change “for the better”, I’ll give you a list of things that I don’t plan on altering.

My addiction to coffee

To all you health nuts who keep trying to tell me green tea is “so much healthier" save it. I’m not looking to take away my sanity for “health purposes”. I prefer my caffeine black. Besides, what would Neil from Brewin and Arthur from Dunks do without me?

My lack of sleep

Alright, I’ll level on this one. Yes, of course I want more sleep but we don’t always get what we want, do we? In addition to sleep, I also want a social life, good grades and to be able to play sports. Sorry sleep, you’ve been voted out.

My love of binge watching Friday Night Lights

You want to know what Coach Eric Taylor, Tim Riggins and Luke Cafferty all have in common (besides a lot of things)? They have never judged me for watching hours of them play football, screw up and be perfect. And neither should you. Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose.

My soft spot for…buffalo chicken dip and ice cream.

No, not together you sickos. But put these in front of me , and I just can’t stop. Not only that, I won’t stop. I don’t want to stop, and none of your healthy New Years Resolutions can make me.

My obsession with Tom Brady

He’s perfect and you know it.

My affinity for sweatpants and yoga pants

Sure, I could try to look nice for class. Or I could catch up on the lack of sleep and wake up just fifteen minutes before. They don’t call me smart for nothing.

So there you have it, ways I do NOT plan on “resolving” myself this New Years. For everyone with goals and dreams, well, kudos.

Happy New Years!!!
