As the end of March approaches, it signals the coming end of the New Year’s Resolution Race, hosted by Bearing News. The participating students, during their second-to-last week of the race, reflect upon their journey; the triumph each felt when they fulfilled their resolution for seven straight days and also the hardships encountered throughout their attempts to meet their goal.
