10 Fun Things To Do For New Years Eve

Have no idea what to do for New Year's Eve? Have no fear! Here is a list of ten great places you can go or fun things that you can do with your friends and family!

1. Throw a Party

Nothing says a good time like having a group of your friends and family over to watch the ball on television at midnight! It’s a great time to reminisce about the year and enjoy your first hours of the new year with the important people in your life.

2. Visit Time Square

Its always fun heading into New York City to celebrate. New Years is one of the most fun times to be in the city. Its festive and there is so much to do!

3. Rent a Cabin

Some people don’t like the crazy noise during the new year. Renting a cabin up in the mountains, with a fireplace, a cup of cocoa, and a nice warm blanket is never a bad idea!

4. Go Travel

Take a vacation and spend the new year in a foreign country that you have never been to. No matter where you are everyone celebrates the new year in his or her own way. Experience a New Years somewhere unfamiliar to you! It will be an adventure.

5. Disneyworld or Disneyland

Nothing says celebrating a new year like visiting a place filled with magic and surprises. Disney is amazing during the regular seasons, but just imagine how decked out they must get for the new year! It's a great place to celebrate!

6. Board Games & Grab Bags

New Years can be fun when you spend it with some of your favorite people! If you have no idea how to spend the time before the countdown why not try a few party games. You can never go wrong with a fun game of Heads Up or Charades! If you like gift giving why not try gift card exchanges! That's always a neat idea!

7. Boat Cruise

Want to spend the evening out and all dressed up? There are hundreds of boat cruises around the area! New York has one of the best river cruise experiences. Grab your family or a group of your friends and spend the time of a boat with food, drinks, dancing, and a whole lot of fun! Sometimes there are even fireworks that you can see from the ship! It will be a worthwhile experience for all!

8. Ice Skating in NYC

Rockefeller Center is one of the most famous ice skating rinks. If you love to skate and find it festive for the holidays go! Rent skates or bring your own. Its so much fun skating in the beautiful city of lights during the best season of the year!

9. Go To A Bar

Nothing says a fun New Years Eve like going out to the bar and watching the ball drop with friends and a nice beer! Enjoy meeting new people and wish strangers a very happy new year at midnight!

10. Baking Contest

Like to bake? Why not have a bake off? Have all of your friends and family bring their best cookies, cakes, brownies, and all other sweets. Everyone can taste the delicious desserts while counting down to the new year. Tally up the votes and after midnight the best dessert can be awarded a fun prize!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
