New New Year's Resolutions

Every single year, you choose the same ole New Year's resolution. What is it? Drinking more water?Working out at the gym? It's time for a change friends, so let me give you a few new ideas!

1. Learn new music.

If you listen to the same genre of music every single day then maybe you should try something new! Besides, you can't tell me that the same artists don't get boring after a while.

2. Pick up a guitar.

It doesn't even have to be a guitar. Try an instrument that you've always been interested in. You don't have to be a prodigy to learn a song, and if you get really good at it, it could even be a party trick.

3. Pet more dogs (srsly tho).

Does this even need an explanation?

4. Give more love.

Give more love; someone out there needs it, and you could be the one to give it.

5. Volunteer more.

Volunteering is a very rewarding job. This new year, volunteer at an animal shelter (and pet more dogs), homeless shelter, or even a food pantry. People need your help, you just have to be willing to give it.

6. Lay off the carbs.

If you're really set on losing weight this new year, cut carbs out of your diet. Your body will thank you for it.

7. Go to 20 concerts.

Make a crazy goal for yourself like go to 20 concerts. Try as hard as you can to do it. You might not reach your goal, but at least you had fun and made memories while you were getting there.

8. Road trip somewhere new.

If you don't love a good road trip, its probably because you're not going with the right people. Get some of your best friends together, make some bomb playlists, and road trip to somewhere new. Make memories. Have fun.

9. Find love.

This could be the year that you find the love of your life. Don't be shy, be courageous. Talk to that cute girl or guy at the bar. See what happens, you never know who you'll meet next.

10. Do a random act of kindness once a month.

One act once a month times twelve months means helping at least twelve people, and I know that you can do it.

11. Write more.

Write until you have nothing left to write about. It'll help your english and grammar skills, and if you like it, you could end up writing articles like me.

12. Make new friends.

Go out and meet new people. You don't need to always stick with the same group of people. Meet new people, make new friends, and make amazing memories this new year.

13. Find yourself.

Find yourself. Reinvent yourself. Make you the best you that you can be.

14. Make a youtube channel.

You could gain approximately 3 million subscribers overnight, so why don't you give it a try?

15. Smile more.

A smile a day keeps the bad away. Just you smiling at a stranger can change their entire day. Don't frown when you've got so much to smile about.

Happy New Year and good luck!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
