3-2-1 Happy New Year!! The ball drops, you kiss (if you're lucky) or hug the special person close to you and go on celebrating yet another year to come. Laughter, cheering, toasting, remenicing... all happening on this one night when we get to watch time roll over, ending one year and bringing in the next.
This year, New Year looked a whole lot different. No big party, no fancy cloths or even any make-up at all, no big dinners, no music, no New Years Eve shows to watch on t.v., not even a t.v. at all... I say all that like it was a bad thing that I didn't have any of that, but really, it was not bad at all. I played games with some of the younger people on our trip who chose to stay up unlike most of the others. We laughed and had fun and at 10:55 Mexico Time, 11:55 Texas time, we played Ring-Around-the-Rosies as quietly as we could so as to not wake everyone sleeping until the clock turned 11, (12 Texas) and we all jumped up and down and hugged and wished each other a Happy New Year! We didn't even stay up to bring in the New Year for the Time Zone we were in. But even though it was a little different than many New Years Eve's in the past, it was still great.
