2020 has been quite a year. It’s the kind of year that will go down in history and be referenced time and time again. Although this year is so historic, people can’t wait for it to be over. With the end of any year but especially and year like this comes this feeling of change. The whole “new year, new me” is stronger than ever this year. Even though new year’s resolutions are notorious for not coming true it’s always worth the try.
