New Year's Resolutions I Never Fulfilled

I'm being as honest and guilty as you should be.

We all have New Year's Resolutions that we never fulfill. Most people go for weight loss, because it seems like obese America feels this is the ultimate goal, instead of, you know, ending world hunger. I am reluctantly openly guilty about making these stupid goals that will never become reality. Here is my list.

Learning to ride a bike.

I’m going to be that 30-year-old trying to balance myself on two wheels. Awesome.

Eating healthy.

This is hard, because chocolate tastes good and spinach does not.

Not starting journals and only writing on one page.

Because I like to support the killing of trees for no good reason.

Going skinny dipping.

The thought of something foreign touching my no-no square is enough to keep this one unfulfilled.

Toning up.

If I didn’t do resolution number two, why would I do this one? I just mess up my list.

Writing a book.

Can I write this at the last minute like I do my papers?

Getting a long-term boyfriend.

All of my significant others like to move to different states. That means I’m cute, right?

Letting my hair grow to my butt.

Just kidding, I'm talking about the hair on my head. I’d rather fry my hair and cut it, apparently.

Visiting another country.

But I’d rather spend my money on expensive college and fancy coffee.

Saving money.

I already spent the penny I found on the ground 10 minutes ago.

That year I didn't make one because I'm so edgy...

Ha ha. Look at you now.

Learning how to roller skate.

I can’t even walk, people.

Going to a concert.

I’m pretty much the only person that hasn’t been to one. I honestly don’t even know why this is still on the list. I’m just lazy.

Starting to drive again.

Because when you make your car catch on fire, everyone is reluctant to hand over the keys. My family is going to kill me for joking about this.

Becoming Tumblr famous.

I’m almost there with my three-note post!

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:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
