Lizzy: Hello everyone and Happy New Year! Today is Monday and a lovely start of a brand new year. The whole world is celebrating and everyone is as happy as can be. That is until that one dreadful question is asked, the one that everyone either accomplishes by the end of the year or fails in a few days. That's right, I'm talking about New Year's resolutions. No one really knows its origins but what we know is that people make goals to achieve by the end of the year. If they do it, that's fantastic! But if not, well the outcome really depends on you as a person. Personally, I'm one of those people that make a resolution but then I fail, I kind of shrug it off and try to do better next year. I'm not exactly....a person that feels terrible for not completing a resolution but that's just me. I like having goals though! Goals are fantastic thing to have and I seriously think that everyone should have goals. But having a goal for an ENTIRE year? That's hardcore and somewhat difficult. However, I think I'll make a resolution despite everything I said about it. My resolution.......is to make journals for the entire year!! (grins) if I'm able to have that many journals, it means more memories to look back on and I'd be extremely happy. I'm gonna do my absolute best to get that fat. So cheer me on, okay? I'm gonna absolutely need it! But besides me, do you guys have any resolutions for the year? You don't have to tell me what the resolution is. Just tell me if you have one or not. If you do, that's cool! I'll cheer you on too! If you don't, that's okay. You can cheer on the people who have resolutions! Anyway, thanks for watching today's journal! It's a bit short today because we had that big party yesterday. I hope you all have a great New Year's Day. Bye!
