We all have goals. Whether those goals be long-term or short-term, we all have them. Now goals can be simple, or more out there. Women have different goals from men, and men from women. We have life goals, career goals, and many other types of goals.

As a 20 year old some of the goals you have for life, will be taken care of later because come on let's face it, 20 year olds can only do so much. We don't have the funds. We don't have time because most of us are in college.

Something seems to get in the way of our goals one way or another. Here are some goals however, that are actually achievable in 2018 as a 20 year old.

1. Get closer to God

One of my personal goals for 2018 is to grow my relationship with the Lord. I feel like it has taken the backseat and that is not good. I want to grow my relationship with Him. Having a sound relationship with the Lord makes your day go so much smoother and more relaxing.

2. Concerts

I know one of my goals is always to go to concerts and hear good music. Good music. For example, this summer I am going to see Shania Twain-who has been my favorite musician since I was seven, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, and Sam Smith-who is AMAZING! Concerts can be an experience and that is what I hope to get out of concerts, not just music, but good music with a fun experience with friends and/or family.

3. Travel

Even if you can't go out of the country or even out of your state, you can travel. I can guarantee that almost all states have something fun or adventurous for you to do. Even little ole Alabama has some fun, adventurous places. Heck, if you can go wherever you want to, DO IT.

4. Eat good food

Okay, so this comes off as kind of weird/strange to some people, but honestly good food is good for life experiences. When you travel, that is when you can get some actual good food. You may think McDonalds is good, but trust me, it's NOT good food.

5. Learn/try something new

Learning new things gives you more life experience. Learn a new language, a new art form, anything, it doesn't matter. Try new food and experiences. Make new friends. New friends are great because they can be lifelong friends that you never knew you needed.

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.

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.
