With the new year just starting, people all over have been trying to complete their resolutions. New Year’s resolutions have been around for 4,000 years now and each year more and more resolutions are being said and done

New Year’s resolutions are a chance for people to set a goal for themselves whether that be trying to go to the gym more or trying to get better grades. There are many unique and different resolutions for each person. Students at Liberty also have some of their resolutions.
According to Kurea Mori, she resolves to get straight A’s and make new friends. She is planning to stick to these for the remainder of her High School years. Junior Aubrey Betancourt resolves to live life to the fullest.
In contrast to this, ninth grader Emma Skufca does not believe in resolutions. “Yeah they are cool but not for me,” Skufca states. Her argument is that resolutions do not last very long and that people begin to lose interest.
The good thing about New Year’s resolutions is you have something to work towards in the new year. It can also lead you to become a better version of yourself, but they aren’t necessary for people to have a good New Year. It’s just a way to set goals for yourself. You can still become a better version of yourself without resolutions.
