Resolution Revolution

I hate New Year's Resolutions! I really do--I feel like they are set ups for imminent failure and who wants to fail?
So, this year, I didn't make a resolution, instead, I set a goal. I'm going to love Kristie Aaron forever. FOREVER. FoRevEr ;)  She wrote that, pay no mind to it.

So--I will tell you mine, but you have to tell me yours first.  What is your goal for the 2011?
 Go into detail and make sure you go in-depth about what you hope to achieve and what you think you are capable of doing AND what you have already done.

  1. I’ve tried to make new years resolutions but they never stick with them and I don’t think that anyone does to be honest. So I’m really going to try to stick to mine that I made this year, because this would truly benefit me for my future. I already know what I’m going to do with my life after I graduate and I’m attending a beauty school to earn a cosmetology license. I love doing make up and I have done a lot of my friends make up for parties and concerts. Not only because they want me to but I love to do it! I’ve done girls hair before both styled and cut it. So my new year’s resolution is going to start taking pictures of the makeup and hair styles that I’ve done. Not only take pictures but, print them out and make somewhat of a scrap book for myself. I really think that I’m going to be able to stick with this. It’s going to benefit me when I try and get a job once I’m in beauty school. Once I’m in school and I start learning and practicing on real people I can also take pictures of them so I can only continue and improve my book. If then I find a job I will be more then prepared for work and what I can show and offer my costumers. I know for a fact that I can do this it’s not like its hard and I will enjoy taking pictures of the work I do. I am mad that I never took pictures before just because I could have had a lot of work already done. There is never a better time to start then now, so that’s going to be my new year’s resolution. I can only hope that this will help me go where I want to go in my future.

  2. For this 2011 year, my goal ultimately is to recieve my diploma. I'm going to put out my best effort in wrestling for this year. My goal in the long term would be to attend a college of some sort and earn a degree. I'm hoping i'll have a spot reserved for me next fall when i go to ACCC. I don't want the classes full and have to wait another year. The jump start program should provide me a place in the community college next year. Honestly, my visions of the future are still somewhat vague, but I have a good idea of what i'm doing. I'm certainly capable of finishing college and recieving my degree in my feild of work and i'm mentally ready to take on the challenge. I guess i copuld say wrestling has had an impact on my goals and committing to a certain challenge is something i understand. My grades are what you could call good and I hope that's looked upon by my college of choice. having said that, now you have an idea of my future goals in life and i hope yours have good intentions.

  5. Though I did spend a long time figuring out a resolution, I suppose I can come up with a goal easily. I guess my goal for 2011 is to continue being the best manager I can be for boys' basketball and ultimately the best manager I can be for baseball in the spring. I do my best to make it to every game, and to inform someone if I won't be able to make it to a game so someone can fill my place. When someone on the team is hungry but they have no food, I buy them food because I want my boys to play their best. Recently a player was really hungry and the bus was about to leave to go home so I ran inside and got him three bags of cookies which happened to be free. I am willing to do what it takes to keep my players healthy, I feel it is the unwritten job of a manager. Also at games I keep the players area clean and now when they take off their warm up gear to play they throw it to me and I fold it and keep everything separate so no one loses anything or mixes them up. Sadly, one of my goals is also to find a job because my seasonal one is up. So actually, my biggest goal, collectively, will be balancing a job and managing two sports I love deeply because I can not just quit when I already promised myself to the teams. In February I plan to pass my drivers test so transportation to everything will be easier, but I have to get a job before my drivers test because my step-mom is so difficult and likes to ruin my life. But whatever. Hopefully some job will understand my dedication to basketball at least. Hm, this seems more like a rant. Okay, back on topic. Ultimately my goal is to not stretch myself too thin but to successfully balance a job and my sports. I would not want to leave my players hanging in the middle of the season and I really need my drivers license. Oh and to graduate. My grades have never been tip top but this year I have put forth a real effort to pass every class with the best grade possible. Then I plan to apply to some colleges and since my SATs went great, I scored a 1750, I have one less thing to worry about! Once I graduate, I plan on attending the lovely ACCC and in the future I hope to own my own daycare so possibly I hope to involve myself in some volunteer work with children. I feel as though my year is already set out for me, I know what I want to accomplish so that is always good. Maybe in whatever spare time I find I can baby-sit to add to my amazing resume. So all in all, my goal is to make 2011 worthwhile and beneficial. Yea, that's it!

  6. Not everyone calls their new year’s resolution goals that they set for themselves. They are things that they would want to change about themselves for the upcoming year. My Goals for the 2011 year are very basic as some would say. I stress these three goals the most because they are most important to me. I want to graduate high school. Get accepted into more than one college. Also to get a reasonable score on my SAT test. I think about these three goals each and every day. I probably do, because it stresses me the most. Accomplishing these goals will not only make my life easy but also my family and friends too. I want to graduate high school because who doesn’t. Without that diploma where are you going to go? No Where. Graduating will also make my family and Friends proud of me, more than they already are. I set a goal for getting accepted into colleges is because I really want a great job when I get older. Without a degree there is not too much you can do. I mean there is, but choices are limited. At the college level I will still continue my athletics. Football which is one of the main reasons I choose to go to college. I want a reasonable Sat score is because without that I can’t get accepted into college. I want to aim for at least a 1200 or higher. I am not that smart but I am confident in myself, and work ethic. These three goals determine my future. I control my own destiny in the next 5.5 months. The three goals will determine if I am successful or unsuccessful. I set these goals for myself because nothing could make me happier. Not only for myself but for the people that love me.

  7. I Always try and set a new year’s resolution but it never seems to work out the way I want. Everyone usually try’s to set their new years to something they really can’t see them self’s actually doing. My goal in 2011 is simply to graduate and end the year on a good note. Passing all my classes even the classes that don’t count would be a big achievement for me I kind of get mad at myself for not even applying to any colleges but I can’t do anything about it now. I wouldn’t mind going to ACCC after getting my high school diploma. My ultimate goal really is just to be really successes full. I really want to start working while I’m still in school and have a steady job. Another new years resolution is I am trying to do is give up soda. I Know it may sound dumb but soda is really bad for you and I tend to drink it a lot. I have cut back on soda and ever since the New Year I haven’t drank any soda. Ultimately I just want to finish high school and start my life in the real world as a successes full person and have a job that can support me in anything I plan to do. I plan to keep working hard and keep my grades up so I can actually be someone. When the new year comes around a lot of people try and think of something they’d want to do and never actually do it. I plan on working hard and making my new year’s resolution a reality. And I plan on coming back when I am older and thanking all of my teachers for teaching me how to be successful

  8. Well, that's a pretty deep question. I'd have to say that what I really want to do is become closer with my family and get my priorities straight. I’ve started this about two months ago by spending more time with my family as a whole, all while getting my priorities straight. I’ve made a number of correct decisions I was more than capable of making four years ago but I wanted to do my thing, or at least what I thought was my thing. I’ve tried to keep my dad levelheaded and happy now that he’s retired and has had a pretty rough retirement at this time. In that I’ve tried to spend more time with him so I can get to know who he is. I never really got to know him because my parents divorced when I was two or three, I don’t quite remember. I’ve lived in Mullica most of my life, going to Hammonton was a weekend thing. However, as I started to grow older I started to go to Hammonton, and not even see my dad till the next day ready to go back to Mullica. So that caused me to, sort of lose how to talk to him. So I’ve settled down and started to get to know him about two months ago. Getting my priorities straight just through doing what I had to do to get to know my family more. To get to know my family more restricted me to, cut people out of my life that I didn’t want in it.
    I believe I am more than capable of achieving what I’ve set out to do. If I had done this my freshmen year I wouldn’t have to put up with as much stress I go through now. I put a lot of stress on myself trying to balance the stress from my family as far as trying to do what they tell me to do or ask me to do as a favor because I’ve kind of shrugged them off when I was younger. I’ve made what in my eyes is the more mature thing to do and this is, get to know my family and to make better choice from that point on. I believe that going through what I do and able to stay focused outside of that making me more than capable of doing anything I set my mind to. I believe if I set my mind on success I can more than guaranty that I’ll achieve success.

  9. Honest to God, my main goal right now is to graduate high school. I know that in the future I'm obviously going to miss school but I think I can handle the real world. Moving out comes after graduation, I'm going to have a job, bills to pay and own my life. My other goal is to move back to Puerto Rico and to stay there. I dislike being in this place. I'm not going to say I hate it, I simply don't like the fact that I'm forced to be here! "Better education, better job's, and better life", that's my mothers excuse all the time! Well mom, guess what? "I don't care about the money, I honestly prefer to be poor and happy with OUR family, than have money or try to live the dream and be miserable like us now." I know she trys hard but I want her to be happy and not have this massive weight on her shoulders. All of this stresses me out because she complains about how she wants me to buy my own things and to take care of my self. "I'm only 17, I think I'm suppose to be focusing on school." Speaking of which, I know a lot of people who get everything they want, when ever they want it. Sad thing is they create this big thing called {ego}, and all of a sudden 'they think they are better then everyone and don't appreciate anything!' Well in my eyes, money can buy you many things you want. What it sure as hell cant buy you is family, friends, and love. I realized that family is the only thing I have. I'm not going to lie,I have many friends,and I have a job which helps with my necessities. Nothing could ever replace the love I have for my family! If I had one wish { it would be for everyone of them to be together again.} Those are the reason why my goal is to graduate. To make the people I adore proud, to return home with my x-ray and dental license. When I succeed, I will have exactly one last wish/ goal. That is to convince my mom to come home.

  10. My goal for 2011 is to improve myself, to spend more time with family and friends and be able to balance that with work and school. Last year i focused more on my work than my school and my own personal life. in fact honestly i can say i had no type of personal life in the beginning of the year. Then i began realizing that i needed to learn howto balance out my time and effort, i had to give my schoolwork more time as well as my personal life. Thats why i began changing it and making more effort to controlling how i balance everything out. My goal is to enjoy still being 17 years oldand stop working like a 25 year old. to have more time to myself and to take care of myself first then other stuff. I do admit i did a lot for myself, i was very active in volunteering, school clubs, i worked everday i was asked to, and i love working but at times i worked more than enough. Yes my job gave me independence and that feeling of having my own money but it took away my time with friends, and my chances to go to school events. I know that what ever i do want to do i am capable of doing. My goal is to basically enjoy my time and enjoy the people that are in my life because i never know how much longer they will still be their. I don't want to be that kind of person that realizes last minute that she wasted her time and didn't take advantage of the time she was given with each person that came into her life. I don't want to regret not being able to enjoy the people in my life and taking advantage of every opportunity i was given. I want to get older and look back and be able to say "yeah me and that person had good memories and they meant something to me at that time." Thats my goal, i don't want to set a goal i know i won't care about later, this year i want a goal that means something. Usually every year teachers ask me whats my goal it has always been the same, to get good grades and pass high school, but honestly i can say i do that anyways without it being my goal because i forget i set it as my goal so this time i want my goal to actually mean something to me.

  11. I never really ever set goals or anything on new years but this year I would. Now my goal for 2011 is to focus better in school. To achieve this goal I would have to not have senioritis, listen to my teachers an most important do my work. I am capable of doing this goal because I have done it when I was little. So I know I could do it now. Its starts by not getting any trouble, an having a good mind set as in wanting to good to school and stuff like that because if you have that mindset that you don’t ever want to do something it will never get done. As far as what I already got done for this goal was that I changed my mind set an now I want to just hurry up and get my work done. Like for example in the 1st marking Quarter I used to skip classes, not wanting to come to school, and when I was in school I used to sleep and not wanting to do any work. Now since I realized that this is my last year and I need these classes, and want to be in school, but if I don’t ill still force myself to at least do all my work. If I choose to act how I was acting in the 1st quarter I want be there for long. This goal will also change things in my house hold because if I focus more than I’ll get better grades an than I won’t have to hear my parents mouth about anything.

  12. ive never had a new years resolution, i never even tried making one either but i do like to set goals. Ive has the idea of buying a new car since 2010 and im about $1000 away from reaching my goal. I need a car that's going to last me at least 5 years, so im going for either a Honda or an Acura.From these two brands ive considered Honda's Civic and Accord, and for Acura i've considered the RSX, CL and TL. Ive been saving as much as possible, but at the same time ive been spending on necessary things. If i was to set a goal though it would be to manage my spending and saving a lot better because even though ive always bought necessary stuff, ive also spent a lot on little things that have added up to my spending list quickly. I want to start carrying a limited amount of money in my wallet so i dont go over my spending limits. I always carry about $100 with me so if i go out i usually spending over $50. I need to stop doing that because then i keep asking myself where my money goes. Especially when i go deposit my money at the bank, i feel like im missing money. Therefore my goal for 2011 would be to manage my money a lot better and carry a limited amount of money in my wallet. Im also goin to try to walk a lot more so i dont spend so much money on buses,jitneys,etc. No more unnecessary late night WAWA runs,i gotta start eating at home more, ive already stopped spending money on clothes because i figured i got everything i need so far for the winter, it wont be easy but once i see that car in my parking lot i know im going to feel a lot better.

    What I want to achive this year is what I think everyone who is a senior wants to achive and that is to graduate from Oakcrest. I admit I havn't had the best of luck in the first marking period and Im tring to make up for that by doing better. Then again whats a goal without effort. Anyway my goals to graduate Iv already made it past the other grades and after graduation im heading right off to the colleges.

  14. To tell you the truth I don’t really know what my goal would be for this year I mean in past years it’s been to lose weight and do better in school and other stuff but that seems like what everybody says if I would have to pick one I would have to say that I want to graduate from Oakcrest and move to Mississippi and get settled in there with a job and have a little bit of money before I start going to college but the main thing out of that goal is I want to move to Mississippi because ever since I was seven I’ve wanted to be down there because originally I used to live down there when I was a baby until I was seven then I had to move up here but know I figured that since I will be graduating and I will be 18 that I will move down there and fulfill my goal which is also my dream and by me fulfilling this goal I hope to open a restaurant and be the chef of it or if that doesn’t work out do something with graphic designs and stuff but for now I am just set on getting down to Mississippi and beginning to live my life

  15. This is not really a new years resolution but over the summer i promised myself that i would do beeter in school.I knew if i didnt not get my stuff together then i would not graduate. All the years i been going to school would just be for nothing. Right about now i am acheiving my goals and im proud of myself. As the new year came i told myself im going to keep doing what im doing now.Its 2011 and its my year to graduate and im going to make that happen. I just wish i had this goal in my head the other 3 years in high school. My other goal is to make it to college and trust me i already pushed myself to make sure that goal comes a reality. Im not sure if im ready to step in the real world yet but imma have because thats how life and i am just gonna have to deal with it.

  17. 2011 is finally here. This year is going to be a great one, everyone knows that. I feel that 2011 is going to be a great time for all and especially this year’s senior class of Oakcrest High School. There have been many goals set for people this year, but I know my goal is to end high school off with laughter and great memories. My goal should be every senior’s goal this year. I have had great times in Oakcrest, football, lacrosse, friends, parties and school its self, from waking up at 5:30 every day for the past 4 years to the great time during school with friends and fellow classmates. I’m trying to go with a bang; I think we started the senior year off good with the football team, (ME BEING CAPTION) going to the state championship for the first time in school history and winning our first playoff game in school history. Doing that for Oakcrest, my family, teammates and form myself is just one step of making this year even better. But for what’s next are many more things. Basketball games with friends, parties, lacrosse season, graduation, and making memories in school. I picked this goal because there are few people out there that forget about their high school life. My father tells me stories almost every day about his high school days and how much fun he had and I want to do the same with my kids. I know that this goal will be accomplished because I’m having a blast right now and I know that there is still great things that are going to happen in the future at Oakcrest High School with the class of 2011.

    “LIVE LIFE FOR TODAY, PLAN FOR TOMORROW,” this will be my motto for the rest of my life and I can promise you that.

  18. I always tried to make a new years revolution and I always come down to one but at the end of the year it somewhat changes into something different. In 2011 I did make a New Year revolution. I promise myself I would start eating healthy. I always tried to eat healthy but some how eat up eating something bad for me at the end of the day. It’s pretty hard for me to set goals for myself to achieve. I achieve a lot in 2010 but never knew what I wanted to achieve in 2009. So in 2011 I really want to set a goal that I want to stick with for the whole year. It is going to be hard for me to but I have to do it. In 2011 I want to enhance my communication among others. I want to let people know how I really feel and who I really am. I want to talk more with my family, be with them more, and let them know who I really am. I never really have time to spend time with my family with work, school, and a boyfriend. Trying to split my time up is very hard for me. I love my friends, I love my family, and I love my boyfriend and giving time to them all is what I would like to do. I would love to sit down and spend time with my family tell them what is going on, how I’m feeling, and show that that I love them and haven’t forgotten about them. My life is busy right now for me. In 2011 I’m capable of graduating high school and going in to college. I want to be able to follow my goal and take it serious this year now that I am older. In 2011 I want to become a better person

  19. Well I never usually set goals, because like you said why should I feel bad about not accomplishing them? But beings I have to write about 500 words about something, I guess I can make one up. For the year of 2011, I’d like to figure out my future. I am a person who cannot handle stress, and figuring this out is very stressful. I really want something to just pop up in front of me that seems cool and then pursue it. So far I’ve reached the conclusion that I’m joining the military but I’m still deciding what branch and what job. The next thing that I want to do, is become more confident with myself. I let people use me way to much and it really brings me father back then I started. Im way to nice sometimes and people know this about me and use it against me. I really need to stick up for myself now and do things that benefit me also, not just others. This sounds sort of wrong but I do get pushed around to much. Well these are the two things that I would change this year.

  20. My goal for 2011 is to pass all of my classes with A's and B's. I always say that I'm going to change something every new year but it NEVER happens. I usually try to do things that are almost impossible for me. I know that getting good grades is not hard for most people but it is for me because sometimes I can be a little lazy and I don't do homework. I also am so excited to graduate, I have been waiting for that day since the day I walked into Oakcrest. I know I'm going to miss my friends and seeing them everyday but I can't wait to just get out there and go to college and meet new people. I want to have a more open mind to new people, I don't want to judge people without knowing them. I feel like 2011 is going to be a great year, that I will never forget!

  21. I thought really hard about this and the only goal that I can think of is to graduate high school. I mean all my siblings have graduated but I want to do it because I want to not because I have to, I want to do it mainly to prove to my father mostly that I want to succeed. I want to prove to my dad because he thinks that I am going to be a failure in life and be like the rest of my family sit around the house and do nothing but that is not the person I am. I am a person that hates to sit around the house and just watch TV. I would rather be out with my friends or helping with my brother’s house but enough about me back to my goal for 2011. My goal for the New Year is to mainly graduate but main show my teachers that I am a hard worker and that I am really trying to improve my grades. I mean it’s been hard with everything that going on in my life but I have to get on with my life and get my head in the game. So I am now setting my goal to be the best I can be and prove to not only my dad but my teachers that I am going to try my hardest in classes and outside of the classes. Because nothing is more importing then having a high school diploma and I am not spending another year in boring old OakCrest. I just want to graduate and live my life to the fullest. And later on down the road I would want my family to have things that I could not have and this all involves not having a diploma well have a happy New Years to everyone.

  22. Hmm let's see. I have never really had a new years resolution but I have a lot of goals for 2011. Most importantly i would have to say my most important goal would have to be to graduate. With good grades that is. After i graduate i am 100%ly going to college. Also in order to do that i need to do good on the SAT's. Which is next on my list for my set of goals for 2011. My last and most final goal is too keep on loving my family and girlfriend as much as possible. They are always there for me so im gonna be there for them as well.

  23. Every year, I always try to make some type of resolution or goal. Sometimes, the same thing always comes up and that is to have a great year. This year for me is to graduate and go to a good college, hopefully to play football but if not then I just want to go to start a great life. That’s my goal for this year just because it’s very important and it’s what needs to happen. I don’t want to have a plan life a get a job that I won’t enjoy. I want to be able to finish school forever and be able to do something that I would love to do. Something that would pay me good and take care of me and my future family. So for me, my goal is to go to college and to do my four years and start the beginning of my life. I have a couple goals but they don’t really make a difference. They are goals that need to be done like get a job, I need one so bad because I need to start paying for my own gas and myself for everything. I want to do great on my SAT’s, I just have tiny things that are goals for me that don’t really matter but in life you would look back on it and say thank god I concentrated on my SAT’s more because if I were to slack, I wouldn’t be where I am today. My goal is to make sure my life becomes a great one and doesn’t become something that is going to suck in life. I hope that you would agree on my goal and say hey that is a good one, I think everyone should have the same one or at least think of that.

  24. For the first time i did set a new years resolution and it was to try harder in school. I need to stay focused and make sure that i do good in all of my classes. The reason for that resolution is because i know i have not done so well in my passed years of highschool. I can't get lazy and i cannot let anything get to me to lose my focus. If i try hard enough i know i can achieve that. I want to be able to put on that cap and gown and walk down that path towards my diploma. I want my family to be proud and prove to them that yes i can do it. So far i have to try harder to get where i need to lead me closer to that day.

  25. I must say that I don’t really have a goal or a resolution and that’s because most likely they won’t ever come true. So I just take life day by day and whatever happens, I just hope for the best. But if I were to need a resolution then it would be to graduate. I can’t lie I kind of have given up on my future for who knows what reason, I just find my situation very hard to deal with. I’ve been struggling for pretty much everything in my life, just because I don’t carry a normal teenage life. As you say Ms. Bunje I haven’t been able to enjoy my senior year at all. But that’s okay; my goals are much bigger than those who always ask for material and freedom. I already have a car, a place of my own, a job & so and so forth. But there’s just so much more to life than that. All the materials and freedom people ask for does makes it easier in life but what people don’t know is that with all this freedom that I have, I have so much responsibility. That sometimes I feel like I can’t handle life on my own. But what keeps me going are the words “I told you so”. Those are the words my mom said she would say to me if I ever decided to go back home. Which I still haven’t decided to go back, so to me I just made an accomplishment, not just any accomplishment. An accomplishment at life. But anyway , my family is a bit crazy (not that good crazy; I mean weird, awkward and a bit rude) so I don’t bother hoping and wishing that I have a happy family, that would be asking for a miracle that I know won’t happen. I just hope for the best for 2011.

  26. It’s always hard for me to set goals just to set them usually they just come to me and I end up completing them without even realize but I guess if I had to make a goal for 2011 it would be to stop being so lazy. For the most part of 2010 I was just relaxing and not really doing anything in my life I my goal is to accomplish more things and work harder I need to find a job and keep it, also I want to be neater around my house. I always just throw my stuff around my house I clean up here and there but every Friday I straighten up the house before I go out I think one part of my goal is to just stay neater like bring all my clothes and shoes up to my room and put them away and when I’m done with I a plate, bowl, or cup I should but it in the dishwasher instead of the sink like I normally do. I think that if I do this it will make my life a little better because I hate having my mother and brother complaining about me leaving a mess around the house I don’t want to be the one who people have to clean up after. The main reason I need to get a job is money I usually find away to get money here and there but I definitely need a steady income I have been procrastinating for the past couple of months when it comes to getting a job because I have been getting money and now im just starting to feel lazy I mean I even went out and got a whole bunch of applications like a month ago and did not fill one of them out. So I think it would make a big difference in my life if I got a job and started cleaning up my stuff around the house without someone asking me

  30. I never really have new years resolutions and i know its kinda late i forgot we even had blogs but i would like to say that my new years resolution would be the same as last year. But this is a more special year it is the year i graduate. so just saying i dont have a new years resolution would be a waist of words and wouldnt be true. My new years resolution is to "get it done" and what i mean by get it done is to stop the procrastination and finish what i say im gonna do. And all categories fall under that whether im talkin about my grades or just anything. i need to get it done i need to finish this year with no regrets. i dont want to look back on 2011 wanting to have done something different. I want this year to be fun but also take into account that this will probably be one of the most serious years in my life. so to finish ill have to say that this year has no room for error for me, and i want to make the best of this year and be able to start my life after high school the way i want it to be.

  31. My goal for 2011 is to keep on track with everything and try my best not to slack. I am a Wawa employee, and I am a very hard worker. I put my best into my job, which seems to be the problem. I’ve been paying a little more attention to work and not school, like I should be. I already took the first step to help me and had them cut back my hour. Now it’s all on me to commit myself to my school work. It’s senior year and this is the year where I should do my best. But instead I have been slacking a bit. I try my hardest not to but sometimes I can’t help it. And I’m just always so stressed, because of this. So I’m hoping that making some changes will help get me motivated again and relieve all this stress I have. I’m still at the point where it’s still so hard for me to concentrate on anything. I want to be able to start writing papers right after they’re assigned again. It takes me forever to think of something to write and by time I do it’s too late. It’s hard with tests and essays. I just need to get my mind straight. I need to try to get out of this metal block I always have. I’m not going to be able to move on if I don’t. So I just need to keep making changes. Cutting my hour at work, studying, eat right, and try to be happy. I like seeing that I make my parents proud, the look on their faces when they see my good grades and efforts. Seeing this actually motivates me. I love my parents and all I want to do is make them proud of their son.

  32. My 2011 resolution is to make something of myself. It could start with just a measly job or income but it would end-up with me being proud by next January. I just want to be able to prove to myself that I am capable of doing something worth while, not just ruining something. Maybe i can save money to go on a trip across America. Possibly go to another country just too see how different it is. Realistically I'm going to try and graduate but I know it would take a'lot of work on my part. Though hard work always pays off in the end. It's not like it would take any kind of miracle though it just requires me to be on point and not to lighten up. Usually i just get all lazy when it comes to school and do everything half wrong just because I don't have to do any better. Since i do have to do my best it kind of makes me give my entire 120 percent effort. It would give me a chance to recognize my full potential seeing as i've never tryed my hardest before.

    I guess that would be the real resolution of 2011 to find out my full potential. To anyone who try’s their hardest on the regular it would just seem foolish. Yet to a person who never tried it would be the smartest decision I’ve ever made. Still it is kind of sad that it would take me so long to try. I guess its just out of desperation that I need not to become a failure. I would do almost anything to get through life without having to fail at it first. Well I guess to everyone trying is failing a couple of times before you can get it right. To me failing would be bigger since I haven’t really tried as much but its still just the same situation.
