Subject: What were you doing when 2018 rolled around?

Written By: SailorSteven2017 on 01/13/18 at 6:03 pm

I know it's a tad late but I just wanna know. Personally, I was watching Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve with Ryan Seacrest and screaming at the top of my lungs as soon as the ball dropped!!! I was like, "OMG, 2018 is here! Yes!!"  :D

Your turn guys, what were you all doing? :)

I was with my friend in my basement recording on Snapchat the ball dropping on the TV and once it hit 2018 we both literally screamed “HAPPY NEW YEAR!”

I was at my boyfriend's mom's place in a small town a few hours drive away. We were watching CBC's New Years Eve countdown.

We planned to go outside and watch the fireworks, but it was dangerously cold that day, -30C (-22F) if I remember correctly, so we had to cancel our plans and stay inside.

Watching the ball drop on TV and looking out the window to see where the fireworks were coming from that I heard.

It was horribly cold that night too over here so I preferred to stay indoors. It sucks because there was a new years event that sounded fun, but it would have meant driving in snow and standing in below freezing weather.

I was busy working on my album but i wasted too much time and spent the whole night watching YouTube videoes while waiting for the the ball to drop live for 2018 in New York. It was amazing.

Yeah it's hard to believe it was 9 degrees in New York.  :o
It has the same weather in New York 20 years ago (1997) new years.
Still hard to believe though.

I didn't stay up to watch the ball drop, I was quite tired from work the other day and on my day off I went to sleep early so I really did not care! :P

Asleep. It was kind of funny considering we usually stay up to about 12:30 or so-sometimes later. But, we had a house full starting on the 30th, and didn't sleep too well that night either. They all left about 2 or 3 on New Year's Eve and we were just exhausted. So, we went to bed early-VERY unusual for us.

I stayed up with friends and family, celebrated the New Year, and stayed up to see Times Square in New York (5am here).

We watched Les Miserables in DVD, pausing it to watch the countdown and fireworks from London on the tv.

We had a bit of a houseful as Elizabeth had planned to have a party with friends somewhere else but the smaller numbers made it easier to have it at our house.  So there was me, my husband, my mother-in-law, my teenage son in one room and my daughter and about a dozen 18 year olds in another

I was asleep. Because what's so fun about celebrating a new year? ::) You're a year closer to death anyway.
