I can't believe it's 2012 already. If we believe the Mayans, the world ends at the end of the year! This is the year to live it up.
I rang in the New Year with two of my sorority sisters and a sweetheart in Times Square. It was not anywhere as bad as I expected and I'm really glad that we went. It was so fun and we met some awesome people and it was great actually being there and watching everything happen as it happened (except performances, we weren't that close). We left my apartment at like 7p and we were on 7th and 54th Street, so we could actually see the ball and the big screens. It was epic and awesome.
We got up there on Thursday night and it was Emily's first time in NYC, so we did all kinds of fun touristy things for her and she loved it, which made us all so happy and so relieved. My roommate was a rude, psycho to my friends, so that kind of sucks. I'm sorry, if you're not okay with having people stay over for a few days, just say so and we can get a hotel. Don't say you're okay with it and then act like a bitch. Just saying.
However, she did not rain on our parade and we had a lot of fun. I'm really glad that we did it and I think it's definitely something that everyone should do once, especially if the weather ends up being as nice as it was before. Even if you're not on 7th Avenue, there are TVs set up on various streets so that you can still see what is happening but still be in the masses. It was a once in a lifetime experience. It was really great.
Making resolutions is always sometimes silly, but I do think that they help! So, my goals are to get not just thin, but IN SHAPE, which is most important and to just keep working hard to get what I want and to go on a budget, so that I can afford to STAY in New York City forever and ever amen.
I hope you all had a good New Year's!
