New Year Resolutions

Today is the beginning of the new year... And with it a chance to start over. This is where the concept of having new year's resolutions comes in. I thought I'd share the ones I have thought about myself.

1. I want to try to be less argumentative. (I know this is not a normal resolution but often I have my mom tell me to stop arguing with her. I guess I usually have a different viewpoint of what ever we are talking about, so I have an urge to protest it.)

2. I want to stop myself from getting stressed out. (These last couple of months have been good for me, and I haven't been nearly as stressed as usual, but I still want to get better at it.)

3. I also want to be more understanding. (I have a tendency to not want to hear about certain things, so I tune them out. Well... I have decided to stop that and try to help everyone out as much as possible. I don't think that should be that hard since I already listen... I think maybe that I'm just not too sympathetic.)

4. I want to go back to drawing. I have stopped for a while now, and I remember myself being really good at it. I guess I have replaced it with writing poetry, which still helps express myself, but it isn't close to being the same.

I know I will think up of other things that I should change about myself. I think the whole point of having New Year Resolutions, is to help yourself to become a better person, or it gives you a chance to change something and make yourself more you.

Happy New Year!!
