i think new years resolutions are stupid. they are made to be broken. halfway through february you find yourself sitting in your living room feeling stupefied after you have eaten an entire bag of cheetos, a whole half pint of butter pecan ice cream, had an entire block of sharp cheddar cheese and 17 mini chocolate chip cookies and you think, “Welp, guess the diet didn’t work.” this is why i do not believe in new years resolutions. i do however believe in new years goals. the word makes all the difference. because resolution implies that you will resolve all of your past issues. weight, not drinking enough water, not exercising enough, cussing like a sailor, reading people magazine instead of your history book. however, the word goal implies something you are trying to reach. if you fail, oh well…it was a goal. i know this sounds insane, and that is because it is. i am just trying to find a reason to have new years resolutions look differently so i don’t fail like always. so here are my goals. drink more water (that was mine last year. Ah ha ha). lose some weight (that was also mine last year. Ah ha ha). Make a 4.0 this semester (this was not one last year but i think it still deserves an Ah ha ha). so if i fail, i at least expect it. if i don’t, then it’s just a big plus. new years goals are a win win situation.
