Going out to a club, bar, or even a restaurant is so overrated in my eyes for New Year's Eve. Especially in New York City. Everywhere you go all the prices have been raised because it's New Year's Eve. Then once the ball drops it all goes back to regular prices.
So for the past five years I've been going to a get together one of my friends throw. These last three years my boyfriend and I have been going to on of our friend's house. You can't go wrong with hanging out with friends and family when the ball drops.
Not only is it great to be around your family and friends, but we always have an amazing dinner. Every year the set up for dinner is the same. First we eat dinner and they always have amazing food. Then we have desserts and once the ball drops we have snacks to munch on. You can't bet this anywhere else.
Once the ball dropped I can't believe 2013 went by so fast. It all seemed like a blur. With all the ups and downs I have to admit 2013 was a sad, but great year. With the loss of my stepfather I've learned more things about myself. I've learned that my anger is something that I have to cope with better and that I need to tell the people I care about that I love them more. Words can hurt and you should be careful with what you say to your loved ones. With that being said 2013 was also a great year as well. I moved out on my own with my boyfriend and so far it has been a great step forward. I also got a new job and traveled to Europe for the first time. 2013 was great, but I think 2014 will be even better and I can't wait to see what this new year brings me.

Happy New Year's to all my followers and I hope each of you have an amazing year.
