IT is once again that time of the year, you know, the time when you start contemplating ways of becoming a better person or when the realisation that it is actually a new year hits.
You frantically go on the net seeking new hobbies to do for self improvement, empowerment and more ways to be a better person towards others and thus resolutions for the new year are made.
A New Year’s resolution is a common tradition, in which a person makes a promise to do an act of self-improvement or something slightly nice, such as opening doors for people beginning on New Year’s Day. The Queensburgh News, with the permission of Hillary Shopping Centre, spoke to a few shoppers about their resolutions.
