As you all know the new year is only a few days away. Though some people may say it is a fresh start because it is a whole new year, I say it is still building from previous years. I love the new year.

One of my favorite things to do in the new year is look at all of my firsts. They may be stupid, and I don’t really care about them. I just do them for fun. The new year is not only a way to hang out with some awesome people before the ball drops, but it also means school is almost over. So many things happen after the new year. One thing I don’t like about the new year is new year's resolutions.

So many people make new year’s resolutions for themselves, but I do not. According to statisticbrain.com only about 8% of people who make new year’s resolutions are successful in them. That is a very low number for how many people make new year’s resolutions for themselves. I am not afraid of being apart of the bigger percentage that fail. I just don’t see the point in making goals for the one year.

I like making goals that will have an effect on the rest of my life. Some people may think I am wrong or stupid in saying that, but I could honestly care less. My life is the life I am going to live, and it is not yours to judge. I hope everyone is safe this new year, but I also hope everyone has fun and is excited for what is ahead.
