New Year’s Resolutions!

Many people feel that resolutions are just goals that are not important to keep however, have you ever noticed the people who actually keep it. They seemed more cheerful and excited with life especially to themselves. Wouldn’t you want to feel that joy inside you knowing that you have accomplished something? My New Year’s resolutions are quiet ordinary and similar to many kids at my age. Today, I started coming up with three resolutions the first has to deal with being scholarly, then the community, and lastly personal resolutions.
I turned back to think of what I should accomplish that has to deal with school. I think of my problem that I have, which is completing my work at the last minute. The first step that will help me in this resolution to be infallible are by being organized each day. To do this I would try to have a proper agenda where I should write my meeting, activities, and my homework so that everything is in one place. With that said, I would be able to finish all my tasks each day and find extra time for not doing all of my assignments to the last minute. Next, I can ask my teachers to give me the assignments that are going to be due soon because then I would be able to do it ahead of time. This would benefit me and in my life by being able to have extra time to do my activities and hanging out with friends. This could also benefit me in the future by making me a better person who accomplishes her work throughout obstacles. My New Year’s resolution does not just consist with school, but with our community too.
My second New Year’s Resolution has to do with our community. I think of all that is happening in our community that needs to be fixed right away. One m...

...ping me realize the importance of having a family. I would also feel happy about having a beautiful family and would have time of communicating with them more often. Thus, the reason why my personal resolution is the most important resolution for me to achieve.
As you may know New Year’s Resolutions are goals that you desire to come true with lots of work and effort. A New Year's resolution is basically a commitment that a person makes to one or more personal goals, projects, or the reforming of a habit. People committing themselves to a New Year's resolution generally plan to do so for the whole following year. This lifestyle change is generally interpreted as advantageous. I am hoping my resolutions come true and help me understand life more as it keeps going. My resolutions have to again deal with scholarly, than community, and lastly personal resolutions.

  • Comparing Relationships in Raymond Carver’s Cathedral and Langston Hughes' Mother To Son

    948 Words  | 2 Pages

    My Idea of family honestly didn't begin until I agreed to marriage and children. Until that moment, in my laxity, I hadn't even considered the many aspects and values a family should consist of. My experience needless to say, laid in shattered pieces long before I took over the reins of raising myself and built a blockade fortress of stoicism. In all seriousness, I often considered never having a relationship, thinking I was incapable of possessing the experience it would take to pursue such an endeavor. Needless to say, I didn't say 'yes' the first time. In spite of this, I did marry; yet my idea of family was built without preconceived ideologies. I've done what I felt was nurturing and beneficial for my children both environmentally and educationally. All in all, my family is successful though we are a work in progress. I'm often overly diligent in their wellbeing out of my heightened need for them what I never had; the experience of a wonderful family that sets the basis for a successful life when life beyond the days of a dreamy child are a hardship all their own. Family relationships, be it any form, is as always a work in progress, yet, with the fiction work of Cathedral by Raymond Carver and with Langston Hughes' poem Mother To Son, we see those with steadfast nerves and unwavering determination can succeed in this precious and challenging undertaking.

    Having a family is no easy task, especially when you are faced with many challenges that are unforeseen. Sometimes one imagines or hopes for an ideal family. The ideal family would consist of a spouse, one or two kids and live happily with little to no conflicts. The reality is that even if one tries to avoid conflict by all possible means, conflict is inevitable. Stressors and strengths within a family can be seen in almost every situation. Although stressors tend to be more noticeable than the strengths. Some of which will be discussed later on, although it will be mainly focused on the strength and stressors faced after a divorce for children.

  • The Major Reasons Why I Procrastinate

    1216 Words  | 3 Pages

    I would tell myself that I will finish my work after I go out with my friends. I would come back home feeling really tired and tell myself that I will finish it next morning. Underestimating the amount of time that was required to complete an assignment was a thing I regretted after I looked at my clock and saw that it’s 2 AM. For some courses, I did not take notes in class as I believed that reading the information in the textbook was enough. I recently realized that if I would’ve taken notes in class, I would’ve been more engaged and interested in the material I’m learning, as I would process it in my mind as I’m writing. In the future, before taking any decisions that affect my academic success, I will re-evaluate my priorities and confront myself about my choices. Setting targets, such as having a dream board, will inspire me to push through any barriers that I might encounter. Setting a certain amount of time to spend on an assignment and finishing it ahead of time will give me a chance to reward myself to feel appreciated. I will stop negative thoughts from taking over my mind by thinking of another helpful thought to develop a positive and confident mind that is looking for accomplishments. I will remind myself that procrastination will only result in me having a frown on my face when I get my results at the end of the semester. I will break the tasks into small chunks that will make the workload seem

With the transition from modern times to postmodern times, the typical life has developed in to more of an isolated society, than ever before. The concept of unity and close ties has become almost nonexistent, with the development and progression of technology. Communication has become less personal and less intimate, eliminating the idea of creativity.
