Sooo I thought this would be a fun How-Tosday...I'll talk about what to do to ring In The New Year... and what I've done wrong so far... it's just fun!
Get a Fabulous Outfit... Check!
Ahhh my New Year's Eve Outfit! So cute! I did a whole blog on it right here and a shorter blog here. I didn't end up wearing this because it was too cold to go out on New Year's Eve... but still I got the outfit and I will wear it sometime!
Make Resolutions... Check!
Ahhh yes the resolutions! I did that and it was pretty fun! I think maybe I made too many resolutions and I won't actually be able to fulfill them... but I'm going to try to do at least one of them... I think it will be mastering the skills of the Jedi!
Watch The Ball Drop... Check!
I watched it on TV... it looks crazy to see it in person and I don't think I'd ever really want to do that. Definitely not on my Bucket List lol. If they did it somewhere warm- maybe I would try it... but not in Times Square. I do watch it on TV. I didn't keep the whole show on because Minions was on the Fx Movie Network... and then it was on a second time so I watched it again because I liked it so much...but I saw the ball drop. I was good.
Someone I follow on Instagram livestreamed them watching the ball drop on TV... that's excessive.
Drink Champagne! Nope :)
I do like Champagne... I didn't drink anything for New Year's... it was a little chilly and I wasn't really doing anything- so I didn't want to drink... I ate a lot though!
Eat Black Eyed Peas... Check!
Black Eyed Peas are supposed to bring wealth in the new future. My sister always makes something called "Money Salad" which is a really good bean salad with black eyed peas, cilantro, onions, cucumbers... and other things... it's a popular New Year's Side Dish... so I was happy to have it!
Don't Buy Anything On New Year's Day... Technically Nope...
So... while I did technically buy something on New Year's Day... I didn't receive the thing I'm getting yet... so I'm going to count it as I didn't buy anything... but I kind of did. It was the last day I could buy a wine painting party reservation... so that's what I did. Sooo... idk it kind of counts. You're not supposed to buy anything because you'll be buying something the whole year. So I can't count this as a check for not buying anything... but I'm going to say it probably isn't bad luck!
Bring Something In... Technically yes?
We like to bring something in the first time you go outside in the New Year so you'll be bringing things in all year. Technically... I brought in Starbucks... I'm going to count that...and I think as long as I save the cup or the sleeve... it counts!
Soooo I think that's it! I hope you guys like How To-sday cause it's coming back!
Byeee!
