听老外聊聊他们的2018新年愿望 A New Year’s Resolution

兔子q

2018 is coming, are you ready for a brand new year? Do you have a New Year’s resolution?

马上要到2018年了，你准备好了吗？你有新年的愿望清单吗？

The end of the year is a good time to reflect on how far you’ve come during the past 12 months.  And, making a New Year’s resolution is a good way to start off the coming year with the goal of improving yourself. Unlike a birthday wish, where you hope for something wonderful to happen, New Year’s resolutions are practical things that you can do to make yourself and your life better.

年末是最佳反省时间，可以好好想想过去一年都干了啥。同时，列一份新年愿望清单是一个激励自己在新年进步的好办法。和生日许愿啥的也许不同，新年愿望比较实际，更多的是说说自己要做什么来改善生活。

So today, in order to make this New Year even more special, I am going to share the New Year’s resolutions of my friends and family with you guys. Hope you enjoy!

为了让这个新年更特别，今天我想要和大家分享我朋友和家人的新年愿望清单。希望大家喜欢。

So, let’s start with some from my friends who want a healthier life:
