"New Year, New Me"

"New Year, New Life" we always hear this quotation if new years coming. We also hear the New Year's resolution and everyone of us have our own. New Year's resolution is that you want to change or do in new years life.
For me, I want to change my life by improving it. I have also my new year's resolution,one is I want to change all my bad attitudes. Even though I may be faced with difficult task,is better to try than to avoid them. Avoiding task does not opportunities for success or joy ,but trying does. I would listen more carefully to what my heart says. I would know that school would end soon enough and work would, well never mind. I don't have to be a certain way because of what has happened in the past.
"Everyday is a new day, New Year is a New Life." It silly to think, I can help myself being the way I am. Of course I can,I can change.
