What are New Year resolutions and why do people do them? Well, many people have various opinions and reasoning for creating New Years resolutions. A resolution is a decision on whether you are or are not going to do a set plan. For New Years, many people make their resolutions towards their physical health, others make it towards their career, and sometimes people just make them so that way they have goals right from the start of a New Year.
I interviewed four students at Hughson High School and asked them what their New Year Resolutions were or if they had any at all. I also asked them why they made those resolutions and if they didn’t make any, why not. All of their answers vary depending on who they are, so their own resolutions might be different then yours or someone you know but that is how it is meant to be.
Arianna Sanchez is a senior at Hughson High School and I asked her what her New Year Resolutions were and she said, “ I want to be able to go to more places and get accepted into a college and do well in my first semester. “. When I asked her why she put those as her resolutions she said it is because she wants to be able to enjoy her time before college and when college comes she wants to be able to do good and try her best in her classes.
Jasmin Richardson is a senior at Hughson High School and when I asked her what her New Year’s Resolutions were she said that she has none. I asked her why not and she had then told me that it makes her feel stressed and it makes her feel as if she has deadlines in her life which won’t make her try her best.
Xander Everett is a sophomore at Hughson High School and I asked him what his New Year Resolutions were and he said, “ I want to make it through the rest of high-school and finally make it out into the world. “. I then asked him why this was his New Year Resolutions and he said that school makes him tired and he just wants to make it into the world.
Hannah Ricks is a sophomore at Hughson High School and I asked her what her New Year Resolutions were and she said, “ I want to make it through high-school and go to college so I can get a degree in a major of my choosing and get a good career. “. When I asked her why she wanted that and she said because she wants to make herself and her family proud.
Everyone has different wants and plans for their lives and everyone will want different things. All of these students had different wants and different reasoning for wanting those things. Everyone’s resolutions are different and unique in their own way.
