Enpaz Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) Hi there! So what did you do on New Year's Eve? I, for one, shared most of the evening with my family. Then, I built some Lego and afterwards I was out for a short time. Short time because I noticed that going out on New Year's Eve is extremely lame, at least in my city. Firstly, there was (much to my surprise) absolutely nothing going on and those firecrackers and New Year rockets are hell. That noise is deafening! I have to admit, though, that some especially bright people putting pyrotechnic articles into rubbish bins and then running away were pretty amusing. Now I'm watching a movie. I'm looking forward to hearing your experience and wish you a happy new year! Enpaz Edited January 1, 2011 by Enpaz Quote
Once In A Lifetime Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Well, for me, it's only 6:50. So if I planned to do anything, it'd be a bit later. But I have no plans except to go on Eurobricks or watch TV. Forever Alone. Quote
Enpaz Posted January 1, 2011 Author Posted January 1, 2011 Maybe building some Lego would be a viable option, Mr Lifetime? Seems like I didn't consider the different time zones. Just reply tomorrow, all of you! Greetings from Austria! Quote
simonjedi Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 I didn't fit in with anyone's plans so I sat here (on the computer) being miserable. Oh, I can tell it's going to be a good year! Quote
brickmack Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Well its still only 8:40 here, but so far I've built some LEGO, watched an all day Doctor Who marathon, and did a bit of python coding, and played laser tag. Good day I think. Quote
Iysk Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Going to my aunt's house, but still underaged (19) so I can't drink. Nice to see drunk people talk though on this day. Kinda upset to hear that the Lego store I was gonna go to for the first time ran out of S3 Minifigs, so I kinda sad. Said monday to check in but I have only tomorrow to visit... Quote
Erdbeereis Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Still 8 PM here, but right now we're making homemade pizza/Flammkuchen and I built the Golden Staff Guardians set. Later I'll probably watch the New York NYE Times Square celebration. Quote
dr_spock Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 I took a nap and woke up just in time before midnight. Quote
prateek Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 I watched the CityTV New Years Bash and when that was over I switched to FOX to watch the New York City Bash. BTW, champagne tastes like crap Quote
Once In A Lifetime Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Hey prateek, I'm curious, where from Canada are you from? Quote
Sisco Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Hm. This was probably my least eventful New Years Eve yet. I watched some of the Twilight Zone all day marathon (best show ever, by the way!), then I went to Walmart at about ten-ish. Finding nothing there except a Midi scale star destroyer for $16 dollars, but I still decided to pass. I went back home in time to see the moon pie drop (yeah, that's what we do for New Years in the south ). I am now ringing in the New Year by continuing the Twilight Zone marathon. Quote
def Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 I watched the CityTV New Years Bash and when that was over I switched to FOX to watch the New York City Bash. Is City still showing Blade Runner after midnight? They did it for the 10 years I watched City. I ate some sushi and then fell asleep a little early. But new years eve isn't a big deal here. New years day until Jan 3rd are the big days. So, the family went to the temple today to get a new years fortune. I got kichi, which is good luck this year, but not great luck. Quote
NovaStar Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 After having people over for christmas, Pinky and i decided to have a quiet one to ourselves. We finished our loft 'Legoroom', watched Star Wars, ate fillet steak, ate chocolate sponge and ice cream, played with Lego. Watched the London fireworks on tv then went to bed Quote
Geki Brick Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Opened a small set, then opened a minifigure packet, watched the biggest ball drop in my city. Quote
Zorbas Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 The whole family came at my house and we had a very nice dinner. After that me and my fiancée together with other close friends went out for a drink or two and at the end of our night (better, early morning) we had bougatsa. A traditional New Year's Eve sweet pastry. It's one of the first things you traditionally have to eat when the new year arrives in order to have a sweet and happy year. Quote
mobricki Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 I didn't do anything special I was just putting in another bricklink order for the Britannia. Then I ate a sandwich and read a history book on Francis Drake. Quote
The Yellow Brick Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 I ordered some 2011 lego sets then sat down with some snacks and watched the London fireworks display My life is so exciting Quote
Big Cam Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 I was in and still am in a Blizzard. I've been in my house since December 30th and have not left since. New years eve my wife and I watched Star Wars episode 5 and 6 and then we went to bed. At least we had power last night. Quote
Enpaz Posted January 1, 2011 Author Posted January 1, 2011 I ordered some 2011 lego sets then sat down with some snacks and watched the London fireworks display My life is so exciting Nice one - but I hope there were Star Wars sets among them. I was in and still am in a Blizzard. I've been in my house since December 30th and have not left since. New years eve my wife and I watched Star Wars episode 5 and 6 and then we went to bed. At least we had power last night. That snow's a trap! Sorry to hear that, though. Quote

We have some friends snow trapped in New Jersey and couldn't return to Canada. Quote
Stegoceras Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 With the family while having a the most terrible runny nose in years, watching other people shoot their money into the sky with large poofs, lights and sound. (Fireworks, definitely not my thing) Quote
-JD- Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 BTW, champagne tastes like crap Amen! I just chilled with family and spoke with some freinds afterwards. I reckon London's fireworks were the best! I stayed up until 1.30pm, and just managed to finish building my Turbo Tank before 12pm! Quote
The Yellow Brick Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 I stayed up until 1.30pm, and just managed to finish building my Turbo Tank before 12pm! I stayed up untill 3pm (I think) Trying to complete a DS game Quote
prateek Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Hey prateek, I'm curious, where from Canada are you from? Toronto. Is City still showing Blade Runner after midnight? They did it for the 10 years I watched City. Nope. I'm pretty sure they cancelled that show a few years ago. Quote
Mrlegoninja Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Party! Not your regular fun party. One with bingo. No dancing. It was a shame. Quote
