Another New Year's tradition we do a lot of is creating New Year's Resolutions. Things we would like to accomplish in the next year.

Resolutions

One of my New Year's Resolutions are to Stop Procrastinating because I have a habit of putting things off. Both in and out of School.

"The Dog Days Are Over"

2023 really felt like an ending of sorts. I'll be turning 14 and going off to High School. There were also great Movies and Books that had come to an end that year as well. 2024 is looking to be like new beginnings, or a fresh start, or a being of a new chapter. I feel like this song represents that the most.

What I’ve Learned this Past Year

stricklandp3793 — 2024-01-11 16:54:43 UTC

2023 was an uneventful year and a one for endings (As I explained down below), but what have I learned? Well, I learned that all good things must come to an end. All Movies, Books, etc. that I have liked have ended and are either not returning or starting a new story/stories. I'm also going to be ending my year at the Middle School and will be heading to High School. In simplicity, it's that time flies.
