Has anyone ever felt that New Years Eve never lives up to the hype? I look forward to this day, for 365 days, and then once it's over I have either made a bunch of decisions I regret entirely by January 1st, or I don't even remember the night, thus not remembering the decisions, or the plans I though I had fall through, or all these combined.
Last year, I celebrated new years a tad bit too soon since the Texas Bowl that Mizzou was playing in fell on the same day. I started the NYE celebrations around 2 that afternoon. Following that, the only thing I really remember is I passed out before 1am and I remember that because I woke up around 7am still in my clothes from the night before, on my living room couch using my laptop as a pillow, and I had unread text messages from 12:45 so I know I had to have been out before then.
Nevertheless, to this year, I have gone into the day without making plans. Although, I'm most positive something will still fall through. The girlfriend is supposed to arrive in STL by 12:30 this afternoon, so I should be fine for the new years kiss. Besides that, we're supposed to have dinner around 6 and then celebrate the new year at my parents with all her friends. So...
here's a toast, to a new year, to 2011, the year of a new beginning, for by 2012 I will no longer be a college student.
