Write a journal entry about how you would like to improve yourself throughout the next year? What exciting things do you hope to accomplish? Here is your opportunity to chooose a course. Good luck! :)

  1. Some things I hope to accomplish this year is to raise my grades. Not only does is give me a better future, but it makes my mom happy. Also, another thing is to win all the soccer games possible. And the most important one, is to get my lisence. That will be the day I will be complete.

  2. Well. I have not really thought about what I want ibn the year 2011. But I would like to do good in school.and maybe get a boyfriend that would be nice. I would also like to loose alittle weight. Haha. I would also like to get a raise at my work and for some people to get fired because its just to cramped right now. But most of all I hope I can raise enough money to go out and see my sister in arizona because I miss her a lot.

  3. This year is going to be another year. Im going to try and get all the same good grades and try to finnish it as quickly as possible. I'm not really a fan of school so the faster this year, and the next two, go is the better for me. I dont try to change myself by setting a goal. I mean everyone at some point wants to be a better person but i plan on staying pretty much the same. Of course that plan usually gets interuppted. I end up making new friends who *usually* help me make a turn for the better. Or maybe not some new friends but some old ones that ive lost touch with. I'm not going to say im going to try to change someone elses life because maybe they dont want that, but im always here to give even-headed advice to them.

  10. I'm not making any resolutions because they mostly get forgotten and unaccomplished. Instead I'll just keep going on what I have been doing. I'm taking guitar lessons (I had my first one yesterday)and I've lost almost 30 pounds since last May and I'm still going. I'm pretty okay with my grades now, so if I keep on doing what I have for the past six months everything should be fine and slowly get better.

  11. For this year I would like the drama to stop!! it just is getting really annoying and i want immature people to just stop talking lol. I want to make all the freinds I can and also the right kind of friends not the kind that will get me in trouble and grounded or turn on me. And i wanna keep my good grades looking good and continue to build my relationship with my dad. and I think that's about it?!

  12. For my New Years Resolution, I hope to bring up my grades, I want to do good in school so that way it will help me out in the end. Also, I want to get my license. I hope when I get my license it will be easier for my family because then I will be able to drive back and forth between my parents houses. Another thing I want, is to not be sick all the time. I am always sick because I have a bad immune system so I want to try to make it strong.

  15. This year I'm really going to try and take steps that will benefit my future because, like it or not, we are going to graduate from High School one day and I've got to start focusing on my future.

  16. My new years resolution this year is to score 10 goals in each of my soccer season. Hopefully I can accomplishe this goal. I also wanna get a lot stronger than I am now.

  17. My resolutions involve getting paid finally, my parents have been ignoring the fact they are in debt to me for about 5 months now. I also plan on write a novel and getting it published (hardback) and selling millions of copies around the world. Getting a superpower would be chill, i prefer a cool superpower, the ones where I can talk to fish doesn't sound awesome. Hopefully I can scrape enough money in to purchase a new computer because i need one bad, for business and gaming. Lastly, i hope to score a soccer goal, mainly because everyone else on this blog said they would and I don't wanna be left out.
