New Year...Same You - As Told By Full House

How your New Years resolution will actually turn out....

The famous " this year I am going to lose weight"....aka you're going to spend the first week of the year on the couch with potato chips and Netflixs debating what gym you'll join when you're back at school....which will be none.

Or the lovely " I'm going to eat healthy"...Sorry hun, but just because pizza technically consists of a lot of vegetables - the tomato sauce, and dairy- also known as the overly greasy cheese, it's not healthy

Then comes the funny one, " this year I am going to make better choices." Well...judging by the Plan B box in your trash and your lack of memories from last weekend I'd say that didn't happen....

Or even better, "New year- New boys!!!" Sooo you got dumped over Christmas break and your friends said, " oh fu** him anyways! it's time for a new boy!" or you decided this year you're going to stop believing all the lies ( how many times can you realllllllly catch him before it gets boring- come onnn). But as soon as the new year rolls around so does his charm and cute face, plus he's picking up some new lying strategies over break, and BAM here it goes again....

Next, " this year I am going to get my life in order."....let me just ask- do you even know what classes you're registered for next week? Yes classes do begin. Are those books ordered? Have you thought about anything other than which parties you'll attend during syllabus week....

Lastly, " in 2015 I am finally going to be happy." Well I am glad you got to 2015 even though you were so miserable, but good news there's a news update: In 2015 it will rain gumdrops and sugar plums! The world is going to be magical..finally! Hope you get that unicorn you've always wanted for your Birthday this year!!!

Happy New Year to the same old you, and next year maybe your resolution should to make a resolution that will actually be kept....

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.

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.
