The Best Is Yet To Come

Racking In The New Years Resolutions
Novotel

Every year around this time I always give myself a New Years Resolution. I always say, "I am really going to do it this time," or I say "New year, new me." Do I ever end up doing it, though? No, I never end up actually going through with it, but this year is going to be different - I can promise you all that! 2018 is going to be the best year yet and I am going to make sure of it. My New Year's resolution for 2018 is going to be to get healthier and to be smarter with my money!

I have always struggled with losing weight and eating healthy, but this all needs to change this year! I need to actually stick to it this time and make it happen to be able to feel better about myself and to be able to wear cute tanks for the summer! I'm thinking a personal trainer will do the trick and have me ready for summer!

I know for a fact that the saving money is going to be a challenge because I am one of those girls that before they even get the money, they already have it spent. I can't help it - I am a girl and I love to shop - spending money is one of the things I am best at! I need to start saving my money, though, because I hate when I don't have any left for the rest of the week. I am one of those girls that can spend $250 at once or make $5 last a week! Not this year, I am going to just keep saving most of it!

I am not letting anyone hold me back from reaching my resolutions! With that being said, this is a no money spending (well not all my money haha) and a no fast food eating zone!

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.
