#Person1#: Now that it's the new year, I've decided to turn over a new leaf. 
#Person2#: Yeah? You finally decided to wipe the slate clean? 
#Person1#: You got it! I have a new job, I'm living in a new city, with new friends! This is my opportunity to make some small changes in the way I live my life. 
#Person2#: So what are you going to do? Take up an art class or something? 
#Person1#: Well, first of all, I've decided to stop smoking. It's not that I'm pinching pennies or anything, it's just that I've been smoking since I was sixteen, and I think it's time to stop. 
#Person2#: I'm with you on that one. Anything else you're planning on doing? 
#Person1#: One last thing, I've decided to come out of the closet. 
#Person2#: It's about time! 
#Person1# decides to stop smoking and come out of the closet in the new year. #Person2# supports #Person1#.
