Back to School Resolutions

Credit.

So, I officially moved into my dorm yesterday (well, kind of-- I have more stuff to bring this weekend), and I started my job today, so it's time for some back to school resolutions. I've heard about this concept time and time again, but this is going to be the first year that I'm coming up with some for myself.

1. Go to the gym more frequently. I know, this is one of the things everyone says, but I was getting pretty good about it last semester. However, over the summer, I barely worked out. My goal is to make sure to go to the gym (or walk the track, etc) two or three times a week. And to not take the elevator up to the third floor, since it's really not that bad of a climb-- it's only one more flight than last year.

2. Become more decisive. As my roommate could tell you, I am the world's most indecisive person. It's awful. I'm going to try and work on it, so we'll see how it goes. Because really, I don't need to spend five minutes just trying to figure out what answer to pick on a Facebook quiz. That's ridiculous.

3. Be more positive. I already did a post on that, and it's pretty self-explanatory, so I don't want to bore you by repeating myself.

4. Save money. I have three major things that I'm saving for (study away, summer in England, and trip to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter), so I really have to start saving up my money. I used to be really good about being stingy, but I've gotten a little lax about that, and I really need to start saving. Hopefully it'll be easier since I have a job now, which means I finally have a steady flow of cash. It's not a lot, but everything helps.

5. Stop procrastinating. This is another one that everyone says they want to do, but I'm going to actively take measures to stop that. I get stressed really easily, and procrastinating is one way to guarantee that my stress level goes way up. And last semester I forced myself not procrastinate on studying for finals, and I felt way more confident and I did better. I mean, a class I thought I might get a B+ in, I ended up getting an A in. If nothing else, it showed how much of a difference it makes, and the desire to raise my GPA should be motivation enough (Calculus killed me, so I'm still in the process of mending it).

So, do you have any back to school resolutions?
