New Year, New Goals

Kaitlyn Crane, Staff Reporter|January 13, 2015

Many people like to start off the new year with a “New Year’s Resolution.” The tradition of making a resolution, or goal, every new year came from the Babylonians. Every year they would make promises to their gods in hopes they would have a good year. Lion Tales asked Lincoln students, “What New Year’s resolution did you make for 2015?”

So, whether your New Year’s resolution is sleeping more or less, living your life to the fullest, spending more time with those you love or doing better school-wise, have a good year.
