A New Year, A New Me!

Today is my blog is going to be about my New Years Resolutions. My goals are: to be a better friend, to be a healthier person, and to be other-centered.


Being a healthy person changes so much about you. You look better and feel better. Working out and eating right is all about being healthy. I have started to work out four times a week with my mom at the gym. Instead of having dessert everyday I have it once a week. My mom joined Weight Watchers which is teaching me how to eat right also. I feel accomplished and proud of myself.


I want to be a better friend because I know that I have very dear friends who I wouldn't want to lose. I know I can be bossy and I will change by being aware of how much I am. If my friend wants to do something her/his way I won’t question them all the time. For example, when I am around younger kids I tend to be very bossy but, instead I will let their parents tell them what to do. I also want to be a more understanding because when my friends tell me something that is weird to me, I judge them. I will think before I speak instead.

The last goal I want to achieve is working on how I can be other-centered. Sometimes I pay too much attention to my looks and I forget that there are things that are more important. I have decided to do more community service because when my community is beautiful I am beautiful. I'm going to do it even when I don’t want to do it because I am committing to my community. That’s what matters right now.

I have already started to archive my goals except for the last one because I haven’t found someplace where I could do it but, I still help my mom at work so I am still doing some type of service. I hope I get to complete all my goals . What are your goals for this year?
