What To Do In 2019
Meredith Waetherford

Each of these things are simple, but very important especially to twenty-somethings. Take your eyes off of an electronic screen and enjoy what else life has to offer. Make good memories, grow closer to those you love, and become a better person.

1. Take a break from social media.

2. Take a lot of pictures.

3. Find a new hobby.

4. Have a "me" day once a month. 

Spend one day a month spoiling yourself by yourself.

5. Do something to help someone else.

6. Do something you've always wanted to do, but for whatever reason have never done. 

7. Start reading. 

8. Set a list of goals you want accomplished by 2020.

9. Write down significant memories from 2019 with dates.

10. Try new foods.

11. Stop drinking and eating so much junk. 

Your body relies on nutrients, not processed foods.

12. Find a good motivational speaker or pastor to watch/listen to.

13. Visit 19 new places you've never been.

I guarantee you that you wouldn't even have to leave the state you're in.

14. Volunteer at an animal shelter, soup kitchen, or children's home.

15. Go on a trip somewhere that will humble you.

You don't have to fly to another country for this. If interested, comment and let's talk.

16. Forgive everyone who has hurt you.

Holding back apologies is more damaging to you than it is to them.

17. Spend time with those you love.

Family, friends, mentors, significant others, etc.

18. Raise money for something.

Plenty of charities already exist, you don't have to start one to do this.

19. Pick one thing and focus on making it better throughout the year.

Relationships, financial status, faith, self-love, etc.

Make it your goal for 2019 to be the best year of your life.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
