Everyone makes or has made a new year's resolution in there life before. And not all have kept them but to those who have GOOD JOB! Because it's not easy to keep them well not for everyone that is. For example a student at a school might want to help their mother or father around the house more. Or maybe someone might want to help their friends and family more which is also a great resolution. But some people might just need that little push of a good friend or family member to get them to keep their resolution. There are a lot of improvements people would love to change whether it be personally or physically. For me on the other hand it's really simple it's to be more responsible. Because i'm not the best at making the choice to do homework or get on my phone. But when i do make the choice to do my homework i don't even finish it or do it right. For example i have a essay due in english class instead of doing it early and getting it done i wait for the last minute to do it and neither do really good or bomb it badly. And i wanna change that by doing my homework early and getting it done right. And as a result of me doing my work right and on time i'll get better grades and not struggle last minute to do my papers. …show more content…

I want to be able to help my mom around the house so she won't have to come out of work. Just to find the house a mess and find me in my room on my phone. And if i did clean the house before she came home she would be able to relax and not have to worry of the house being a mess. Id also love to help my friends. By maybe responsible. Or maybe help them in class with there school work. Or be more class ready with a pencil and paper. Also help them push themselves to push to do the best the can in any subject no matter how hard the question may be. For example in PE when the class has to run the mile i want to be there to push anyone who needs help to get a good time on it and show them its possible to get a 7 min

    I had the opportunity to look over the teacher’s grade book today, and noticed something disturbing to me: the homework section in the grade book were mostly blank spaces with marks down only a few names. For over the passed months, most of the students have not turned in their homework. There are a few that turn in their homework consistently and the rest have done nothing. I talked to my master teacher about this issue and she said that there was nothing she could do to encourage them to do their homework. She had confronted many students on their homework issue and received stories of family and personal problems that have prevent them from ever touching their homework. Such stories include not having anyone to help or the lack of time due to other family responsibilities.

    When it comes to school, I have always been an “A” only student. I am slightly obsessed with my grades, and I have never had a “B” in my life. Originally, this pressure was put on by my parents, but now I am self-driven and I do not allow myself to have anything lower than an “A-”. Achieving no lower than an “A-” consists of lots of hard work and time management. Unlike many other students, I have always been one to complete my homework as soon as possible.
