Had 2 different bar options to go to, one is a piano bar for $125 buy in and the other is $75 buy in.  Group of friends is actually split this year, about half doing the piano bar (mostly couples honestly) and the other bar is mostly single people.  Kinda odd how that is working out this time considering regardless of relationship status we usually do anything together (don't specifically mean NYE, but anything including recent events such as last weekend).

I assume I'll end up going to the $75 bar buy in since that's where my best female friend is likely to end up going and I THINK its seriously only couples @ the other one so I'm not super keen on that.  Also kinda feel like that one will be more low key considering what I know.

I go out every NYE but it's pretty w/e to me due to how much hype it gets.  I don't see the difference between it and any other party night really other than the expectations are so largely, unproportionately out of wack with any other night.  I mean there was some ugly christmas sweater party that I was at last weekend with like 40-50 people and I feel like that is gonna end up being more cool, fun, exciting or whatever adjectives you wanna throw out than NYE.  NYE seems like loads of social pressure to do something you're usually already doing.

That last paragraph sounds heaps negative or whatever and I'm not trying to be negative about it considering I'll go out and have fun blah blah but the expectations and hype around NYE is so gay to me I can't help but say something about it.  There's a How I Met Your Mother episode about NYE too I believe that says the same shit

[Slashgiggle]

@Syke don't they call NYE "Amateur Night"?

Anyways, we got invited to some parties but we are just staying home.

[Sykeasaurus]

ive never heard that slash and im not 100% sure what it means ;o

[Slashgiggle]

Think it's just a reference to lots of people out drinking/partying/doing stupid things who aren't normally out etc.

[Sykeasaurus]

Oh then yeah maybe/probably lol

Staying in with the wife because we can't get a baby sitter... would of gone to a party with mostly our friends who are in couples.  TBH I hate new year, because you spend half your time trying to get to the bar and you can never get a taxi home.  Used to be more fun when I was single.
