So as I’m writing this, it’s 10pm on the night before classes begin. I’m not super nervous about starting a new year/semester tomorrow but I am definitely excited. I just moved into a gorgeous new apartment and I now have my own room (holla!) and I’m mostly just ready to get this show on the road.
However, I really wanted to take this night to reflect and plan for what I hope will be an amazing semester. I’m taking some really interesting classes and trying out some new things which I’m really proud of and excited about. I wanted to share with you all some fall semester goals I have for myself.
Develop a workout schedule
I really want to incorporate gym time into my weekly schedule. I think by doing this I will be able to hold myself more accountable and will allow me to make sure I actually hit the gym during the week.
Balance school, blog, clubs, and personal life
I always find myself getting really overwhelmed towards the middle of the semester because I usually have a ton of things going on. I want to make sure I balance things out so I don’t get too overwhelmed and stressed out.
Keep blogging consistently
I know I was really bad last week and didn’t publish that much but I’m hoping to at least post twice per week when school is in session. Ideally, I’d like to post 3 times per week but that might be a little much. I guess it will all depend on what ideas I have for content!
Survive Biology
Bio is not my best subject but I have to take a Human Bio course this semester. I’m hoping that I’ll be able to survive the class and that it won’t absolutely kill my GPA!
Stay on top of my assignments
I’m usually pretty good about this but I really want to make sure that I don’t fall behind this semester. Junior year is probably going to be one of my most important years and I don’t want to be a slacker!
Ugh. Yes. I need to make one of these and post it on my wall to never forget!

I am doing one of these posts when September hits and I officially start grad school!
This is the only way I can think to hold myself accountable.

You go girl! I think these are great goals and think you can do it! Best of luck!
Love goals posts like these! I am taking biology this semester too and am hoping to do as well as I can. I would definitely say managing my time better, not procrastinating, and being more organized are my goals.

I definitely have similar goals as you for my first semester! We can do this!!!
Love reading goals posts cause they’re so motivating for other people as well! Many of our goals are similar and I always find myself overwhelmed in the middle of the semester as well. Good luck with your goals!

Can’t wait to see how great you do crushing these goals! I need to sit down and make my goals soon!
Bio was my worst class, and I got a B! I know you can do it 🙂

Love this! Can’t wait to see updates!
I wish I was able to get into a workout routine when I was in undergrad! These are great goals, and I hope you achieve every single one of them!

I hope you had an awesome first day of class! These are some great goals. It sounds like you’re going to have a productive and fun year!
Aw! I hope you have a fantastic first day! I feel like this is such a good thing to do….have goals and keep yourself accountable! A lot of these apply to my job as a teacher too! I definitely want to develop a workout schedule, keep up with blogging and stay on top of my assignments (aka grading papers!). Thanks for the inspo!

Good luck to you in science- I’m sure you’ll do just fine! I had to take science last semester and while it isn’t my thing at all, I still did okay! I actually ended up making some new friends in the class too. 🙂
Cheers to a new semester!

It’s so hard to balance competing priorities, but you got this girl! Good luck!
I hope you have a fantastic first day and Good luck to you in science!!
I never set goals for the semester because I know I can never keep them. I hate feeling like I’ve let myself down. I’m taking advanced chem this semester and I KNOW I’m going to struggle! Here’s to lots of late nights with piles of notecards!
Writing our your goals for the school year is a great way to stay on top of them…especially if they’re posted for the entire Internet to see – talk about motivation! Best of luck back at school babe + I hope you hit every one of these goals! x Nicole | http://www.changeanddress.com
great goals! I need to do this for this upcoming semester
This is a great list of goals! I really need to work on work/life/blog balance, as well!

I always set goals for myself before every school year and it keeps me so much more accountable – here’s hoping you had a great first day!
Pick Your Beau
These are great goals. It can be hard to manage work (or school), a social life, and blogging!
Blogging consistently and keeping up with my workout schedule are my goals too! Best of luck babe.

Great goals! Just stick with a consistent routine and everything will fall in place!
Great semester goals!
I’m working on trying to develop a schedule in general! It’s difficult with a new puppy!
No semester goals, but I do have business goals that I just prepared, and will be adding more to
Wonderful goals! No semester goals for me, since I don’t have semesters anymore…but my general goals are two of yours: to successfully blog on a schedule and work out regularly!
