The New Year is here, which means many people have made their New Year’s resolution. A few common resolutions are going to the gym, eating less sugar, or doing better in school. Whether they are long-lived or only last through the month of January, only time – and determination – will tell.

The Willstonian asked a handful of student and faculty for their New Year’s resolutions.

Here are some responses:

Triniti Slaughter ‘18: “Wake up at 6am and go down to the gym and work out.”

Ms. Talbot: “Run more!”

Ms. TF: “Don’t sweat the small stuff.”

Shana Hecht ‘18: “Be a little bit less aggressive.”

Claudia Capone ‘19: “Be more positive.”

Jordan Strum ‘18: “Get a full ride scholarship for football to Alabama.”

Marielle McEnaney ‘18: “To be nicer.”

Max Livingston ‘18: “To be faster.”

Caroline DiFiore ’19: “Stop swearing.”

Ainsley Holman ’18: “To start actually doing my AP Comp Government homework.”

Harrison Winrow ‘18: “I don’t believe in them. If you want to change your behavior, you can change it immediately. You don’t need to build it up to some hullabaloo to do it.”

Tori Palumbo ’18: “To have fun.”

Kevin O’Sullivan ‘18: “To eat healthier.”

Brandyn Jones ‘18: “Respect women 2018.”

Ms. Motyka: “First one is to drink more water. Second one is to think before I speak. Third one is to spend 15 minutes cleaning my house.”

Coach K.: “I don’t have one.”
