GIVEN THE TIME OF THE YEAR AND EVERYTHING, WE ASKED

THIS VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION: What’s your New Year’s resolution?

BRIAN

I’m going to watch Game of Thrones. This was my resolution last year, and the year before that, and the year before that, etc. This year I’m definitely going to do it. Definitely.

CIARA

Being practically perfect in every way, I have no need of such pedestrian trivialities as New Year’s resolutions.

KATIE

My resolution is to support more Irish and queer artists. I would also love to master calligraphy for once and for all!

LISA

One big priority for me in 2018 is to cut out plastic from my daily life, in the hopes of helping the environment even a tiny bit! Reduce, reuse, recycle.

CATHERINE

My resolutions over the years have become less about giving things up and more about making things happen. This year will be about resolving to repeal, resist, and laugh more.

STEFANO

My resolution is to resist from shaving my hair off. I’ve been growing it for over a year now and want to see how long it can grow before I decide to cut it. #lifegoals

DAVE

My resolutions are to complete a thing, give up a thing, finish a thing, eat less of a thing and do more of a thing... I’ll figure out the finer details as 2018 progresses.

ELLIE

My New Year’s resolution is to run the Athens marathon in November 2018. It’s the original marathon path and you finish in an ancient Greek stadium!

Body Talk
In a world where images of toned and muscled perfection are the norm, it’s hard to feel good about our bodies as they are. For this, our Health and Wellbeing issue, we put a call-out on Facebook for readers of all shapes and sizes to get naked and talk about their relationships with their bodies. We were more than surprised by the enormity and diversity of the response, and the shoot turned out to be a celebration of body positivity. Meet the gang who dared to bare all for GCN
