Lots of people think at least one week before what they should for new year or 31st. In my house no celebration of 31st we will watch only TV program. I also want to celebrate new year but my husband not like this. My daughters cried last year to celebration but my husband no give the permission. What you think celebration is good and we should enjoy or spend the time only watching TV. What is your plan for 31st.

My dear fanta, To be very honest there is no standard programms in TV on New Year. So for the same reason I don't watch TV on New Year. But I do wake up till 12.00. Now a days I am going to bed only after 12 so this year it is not an issue at all. I don't have any special programs on New Year or celebrations dear. It is just like another day of the year. Wish you a wonderful New Year to you and your family.

I normally make a buffet of food instead of an actual meal and we watch the new year's programs on T.V then we all have a drink at midnight. We normally all have a lot of fun but this year my daughter and her husband won't be down with us so we hope they wioll be safe. Her plans as far as I know is to go see h is family then go home to drink a little. As long as they are careful I don't mind.

Hi fanta.. Well, i dont celebrate as you can imagine, a simple party with myself as usual.lol. There is a reason, after 13 days of 31, i mean on 13th January, Assamese people celebrate their most interesting festival Magh Bihu and there each and every family enjoy it more than a 31. have a nice time.

Hi Fanta! For us every day is like a New Year day, therefore, we keep celebrating every day with zeal and zest. No special preparations have been made for the D'Day so far.

aww that is so bad, how come he does not want to celebrate? We always celebrate it with a bang, it has been a tradition and my hubby - thank God - is quite enthusiastic about this always. He help me prepare, we usually start in the morning of the 31st.. i make the desserts ahead of time so they could spend time in the refrigerator so its chilled well... and hubby is the one incharge of the main course.. i am not yet sure what we will be having onthe 31st because we are planning on having "lechon" or a pig roasted.. or he will make braised beef, i am not yet sure which. Then we will have some fireworks, not that much since it gets expensive, just a bit so the kids will enjoy..and then some fun - singing and stuff.

Well we haven't really decided on what we're going to do on the 31st but I think we might be going to watch the countdown or I don't really know. My friends said they wanted to go skiing but we haven't decided yet. But to be honest I just want to stay home and have a warm dinner coz the weather outside is crazy cold :(

We haven't started yet to prepare for the coming of new year. We are still busy for the celebration of our fiesta which will be on December 30. Maybe after the fiesta, we will also be preparing for the new year.

Well, i have not, i do not know what to do and prepare i think the most and important is to have good health and just prepare enough food and not so much to prepare.. Our soul should be the filled by the food from God and the stomach not so much..

For me!! many plans I have in my mine.But my money it's not enough too.All we have to do,is to go the church 1st.Then you prepare the list of food you serve in new year.After that all my family get together in my house & have some fun.And don't forgot the sparkler to each in everyone to having spark light.While waiting the hour of new year..I also I wish that my love one will go home now!! to complete my celebration this coming year.God is the center in our lives.without him we are nothing in this world. That's why I prepare this, it's not to new year it's Thank's giving to the Lord our savior.In all this year!!!.

Well for this year's new year i will celebrate it with my friends. For the preparation, my friends already done it all so i only need to join them. We will hangout together all night long to watch some fireworks that usually happens every year. We will also visit some of our friend's house who celebrate the new year too. Well actually all of this new year activities always make me tired, but i think it is fine as long it's enjoyable for me. Happy holiday...

Hello friends of our family 31 not so great holiday for many. we can celebrate together but somehow goes quiet. We gather all talk funny things to watch but will laugh dance party and not to me that I miss. I want a little more fun but it can not happen because my husband a little stay-at-home and even have small children and he does not want to leave Grandma and Grandpa. This year I will celebrate at home but I hope to be fun. Interesting discussion. pleasant 31 December. nice day!

Yes preparations have started to celebrate new year. We have made arrangements of a night out after the mid night mass. We always celebrate every year and nothing can stop us from celebrating new year this year too. We have also made an artificial old man which according to tradition if we burn takes away all the old and bad things that have happened in the past. This year I will be celebrating new year with my friends and im sure that its gonna be a blast!

Not so much celebrations. A simple dinner with my family and some shopping will do for me.
