Hello resolutioners

Just got back from the crowded gym. Not gonna lie, I got upset when I had to park a million miles away despite the fact that I was about to pound the pavement -er-conveyer belt of a treadmill. It's SO cold. All you resolutioners are clogging up my parking spots! AND treadmills.  
However, that got me thinking about other new years resolutions where I stumbled upon this -- 20 New Year’s Resolutions For 20-Somethings


These are the ones that stuck out to me:
1. Before you status update, Tweet, Tumble or Instagram, pause and say to yourself, “is it entirely necessary that I share this morsel of thought with my entire social network?”and if the answer is not, “yes, I absolutely must,” then step away from the Internet. Seriously, people. NOBODY needs to read about you droning on about how miserable your life is. I've noticed that one of the more popular things to do on facebook now is to get the "track my baby's growth" app. I'm sorry but I don't want to read things like, "My perfect little baby now has tiny eyelashes, eyebrows, and their tiny teeth buds are sprouting beneath the gum line" on my mini-feed. It's creepy. HIDE!
7. Spend less than or equal to the money you earn each month. I need to seriously make this happen. I type this as a bloomingdales tab is open...whoops!
9. Call someone on the phone at least once a week, and speak to him or her for at least ten minutes. I love that I can facetime with my 4S. My BFF, Taras, is one that always has been good at maintaining relationships over the years no matter how busy he gets. Facetime soon, thawk? 
14. Cut one person out of your life who you truly do not like and add one person who you truly do. Note: not on Facebook, on Earth. Just one person? hahaha 
15. If you’re still blacking out regularly, you should stop. This is not a regular thing for me, however, it is pretty enjoyable entertainment to see almost-thirtiers causing a trainwreck at the bar. CHOO-CHOO!
