The new year is three days old, ample time to make and break our
resolve to improve. These are some resolutions we collected from
Morgan Hill residents and not so surprisingly, most fall under same
headings.
The new year is three days old, ample time to make and break our resolve to improve. These are some resolutions we collected from Morgan Hill residents and not so surprisingly, most fall under same headings.
Some of us will get lucky and lose those extra pounds or organize our time better; some of us won’t; there is always next year. Good luck, folks.
Weight and exercise:
• Racquel (who didn’t want to go on record with a last name) said, “My resolution is to get down to 130 again, to stop smoking and to go back to school.”
• Beth Sutton, a sophomore at Presentation High School, “I want to come up with a new exercise program.” Beth has exercised before but wants to find something that works better for her.
• Michael Hayner, a Live Oak senior: “To not eat more than 100 cookies a week.”
• Paul Cachopo to quit eating so much food.
• Brian Traverso: “Get in better shape and to wash my car more regularly.”
• Laura Coleman: “Get in shape and stay in shape and keep up the time with the family.”
Time management:
• Cassandra Mazurek: “Next year I will buy everyone’s Christmas presents on time.”
• CHP Officer Terrie Mayes said, “To manage my time better, so I don’t take my work home with me and end up getting up earlier in the morning to take care of the things I didn’t have time for.”
• “To finish my civic’s points,” said Brooke Carpenter, Live Oak senior.
• Capt. Mike Sanders of the Santa Clara County Fire Department: “To spend more time with family now that I’m not coaching anymore and go to my daughter’s (field hockey) games at University of Massachusetts.”
• Dean Raymond: “To spend more time with position coaches and athletes on the track team.”
Rules for life:
Anthony Hrudowsky of Twisted Pair said he doesn’t usually make resolutions because he never follows them. However, he said, he does have a rule to follow: “Live up to your own expectations, not anybody else’s.”
Concern for others:
“I’d like to see the best artist at Live Oak High School get the same recognition that the best athlete gets,” said Wes Rolley, Morgan Hill artist and activist.
