The Glo-Up Plan And Why You Should Make One

As we go through life, we have to grow into the ideal person we imagine ourselves to be and this plan gives us an idea of who that person is

A "glo" up plan is basically a plan to better yourself. On social media, people usually see a glo-up as the process from turning unattractive to more attractive but I choose not to define it that way. I wanted to grow better as a person so my glo-up plan consists of internal and external changes. It doesn't really matter what you look like if your personality is not as great as it should be.

To get some idea of how to structure a glo-up plan, some things on my list are:

1. Exercise more

2. Learn how to budget

3. Reinvent my wardrobe

3.Try to be less irritated

4. Be less judgmental

5. Complain less

7. Get better at doing makeup

Along with a few more things, I would advise leaving some space because you might add to it later. I taped it up on my wall as a daily reminder, so I could try my best to actually follow it. I created this plan about a week ago and so far it is a challenge to do everything I have written on it. My friends are constantly reminding me when I'm violating the plan. I'm well aware it is going to take some time to make these changes, but I know that if I stay committed I'll eventually glo-up.

Don't be afraid to make one, even if there're only one or two things on it. Change is always good, especially if you're shaping yourself to be a better person.

When you come to college, you're starting a whole new chapter, so why not start it off as a whole new person? It's time to drop your high school habits because no one in college wants to deal with someone who still has the attitude and mentality of a high schooler.

The glo-up plan can help you mentally, physically, and spiritually, so if this has convinced you to make your own, I wish you luck!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.
