According to my own dictionary, a new year means a brand new year, a new beginning and also new goals. This year 2017, I have decided that I should change some of my habits and become a better person.
First of all, the most important thing is to respect my family, friends and also teachers, which basically means everyone. My family is someone who stays by my side no matter what happens. They always support me and they are my ‘happy pills’. As they are always there for me, I shouldn’t take things for granted but respect them in return. My friends are always staying by my side, too. They laugh with me, share my pain and also pull me up when I am under the pit. Sometimes I am like a fool and don’t appreciate their help, however, I should thank them for their kindness and patience for me.
Furthermore, this year I have decided to learn to find my own happiness. I don’t mean I am always sad. But my friend once told me I always care for others while I am helping others to find their happiness, yet I lose my ‘real-self’. I choose to sacrifice my happiness in order to make others smile. Is it really worth it? I truly don’t know, but this year I will try my best to learn how to find my own happiness while making others delighted.
In addition, I really want to find my own dream within 2017. When teachers talk about dreams either in class or in the morning assembly, I think I am not the only one who is scratching my head in my seat and looking perplexed like I have to solve a math problem. I am 14 years old now and my dreams are like a flash of lightning. it can be changed in a blink of an eye. Is it really difficult to find my own dream? I guess I should start from my interest then I may be a step closer to my dream.
Lastly, I hope I can remain a good relationship with all my friends. I am a quite emotional and straight-forward person and I am aware that what I say can hurt others’ feelings. It is a brand new year and I hope I can achieve my goals and be a better Natalie.
