What's everyone doing on New Years Eve this year? I'm not doing anything - no parties, no visitors - so I'm gonna do exactly the same thing I did last year and get drunk and watch 'Fight Club'! :D
New Years Eve is a big deal in Scotland. For one thing we don't call it 'New Years Eve' - it's called 'Hogmanay' and there are huge street parties and ceilidhs. The Scots really celebrate New Year in style. What are New Year celebrations like in America?

Oh, and a quick weather update - the snow that has been engulfing the North of Scotland has now reached the Central Belt! The road outside my window right now is completely white!! :eek:

I'm not doing anything. I'm just gonna sit at home and I'll probably be online like I am every other night. We're getting snow here too! I hope it piles up. I love snow.

I usually just watch the Dick Clark New Years Eve Special or the New Years Eve thing on MTV. My parents order pizza, and their friends will be over, and I will have my best friend over, and at midnight we all get to drink wine. Dat's all.

Just going to a party. I usually go to first night around 8 with the family, and head over to a party around 10. I've been wanting to get into NYC to see the ball drop in Time square, but nobody ever wants to go with me. :(

I'm sorry your year sucked but just think of it this way -

"If you look back on and replay your year, if it doesn't bring you tears of either joy or sadness, consider the year wasted."
