Every year as New Years Eve approaches it seems that friends of all ages search for the biggest and most social party<\/strong> to attend.\u00a0 Suggestions of $100 tickets to ballrooms at hotels and open bar parties at fancy apartments just don’t sound that fun to me anymore.\u00a0 Somehow doesn’t it seem like the build-up for a fantastic New Years Eve party always leaves you a little bit letdown?\u00a0 Why is there a need to go to a big party to celebrate the start of the New Year?<\/p>\n

This year I suggest the wonderful intimate one-on-one New Years Eve at home<\/strong>.\u00a0 Budgets are tights and big parties require fancy outfits and drink money, so I suggest truly enjoying yourself at home.\u00a0 Just relax<\/strong> this year and plan a romantic evening<\/strong> with your significant other away from all of the fireworks and countdowns.\u00a0 Doesn’t that sound kind of amazing?<\/p>\n

My suggestion is to do the opposite<\/strong> of what everyone thinks of as the perfect New Years Eve.\u00a0 Plan an evening that is as relaxing and personalized<\/strong> as possible doing whatever you and your significant other want to do without worrying about pressure to attend big events.\u00a0 While the rest of the world gets all dolled up in their finest, you should be putting on your most comfortable<\/strong> sweat pants and slippers and cuddling up under a blanket with a big mug of hot chocolate.\u00a0 You don’t even have to watch the countdown or stay up ’til midnight!<\/p>\n

Listen to your favorite music, rent a movie, go for a walk, bake cookies, play with your dog, do yoga, watch reruns, play cards, do whatever you like to do you in your leisure time!\u00a0 If you don’t have a loved one, it’s also just as wonderful to enjoy yourself at home.<\/p>\n

My point is that you don’t need to feel the pressure<\/strong> of looming New Years Eve this year.\u00a0 Opt out of the cultural idea<\/strong> that this is a big night that represents the start of a New Year and it must be spent in a certain way.\u00a0 This night does not represent<\/strong> the start of anything new and you don’t need to be in a certain place with certain accomplishments in order to feel that you are ready to start the year.<\/p>\n

This year enjoy a quiet Dec 31 at home<\/strong> doing whatever you would like to do with whomever you would like to be with.\u00a0 It’s just a night where you probably don’t have to work the next day, so focus on relaxation<\/strong> and making a special night for yourself.<\/p>\n
