New Year’s Eve is fast approaching, but I find myself at a loss for what to do. Since we found an apartment and are moving on the 1st anyway, the husband and I don’t plan to do much in the way of partying, but I find that even if we wanted something to do, I wouldn’t know where to go. Last year we went to a party where we barely knew anyone, having only moved here a couple of months before.

If anything, I might have gone to the First Night Celebrations, but I have discovered that they aren’t being held. I used to go to Toronto’s First Night when I could stand the cold - I was hoping it would be something like that - an outdoor celebration with live music and other such nonsense.

I think we’ll probably just stay home in our packed-up apartment and celebrate together. New Year’s Eve will not be the night I learn to be more social and attempt to make local friends. Perhaps later in the year. Maybe that should be my resolution.
