Happy New year!!! Vodka has always been my choice of poison but a nice bubbly wine is welcome. Of course, a glass of champagne is a must for the midnight toasting!

I'm too young to drink by one year. But next New Years I wouldn't mind having a glass of wine. Who cares if it's not very New Years-y lol.

Oyasuminasai!

Bloody Mary for the first time? You are really 'innocent'! Hahaha...........

Anyway! Happy New Year Everyone!

i'd say lemon drop...(not the shot) happy new year everyone! don't drink and drive!

when has being too young ever stopped anyone? lol! personal fav is Moet rose. nice bubbly and good quality.

No New Year plans sighss...
I wish I could go down to London..at least the New Year atmosphere would be be better over there. And China Town should be buzzing with good food already..(I'm salivating as I type..) BUT train tix are just so bloody expensive...sighz..

I'll probably be waiting on Robbers and Hong Gil Dong on New Years Day.. and also War of IN Laws 2..hehehe...

For myself, I enjoy a whisky on the rocks or a poire eau de vie. However, for New Year's? My friends and I like to pop open a bottle of champagne each one minute before midnight. Much sturdier to clink bottles than glasses.

Happy New Years!!! Probably won't be going out, but if I did, I would probably order a grasshopper (my favorite), but I am also partial to white russians and black russians, coffee and baileys, rye and ginger or just a good ole' fashioned rum & coke :) But my New Years will be staying in and watching movies with my family and pigging out lol :)

I just realise that this song is quite similar to High School Musical 2.

I LOVE death cab for cutie.

Hello People ;)
I like to drink Vodka with club soda and lime or Cava ....
anyways I will be having dinner with the entire family as usual and after that I'll meet up with my friends to celebrate the new year's 'till the morning and after that who knows we might be headed to the beach. (I live in the Caribbean) ..
Happy New Years! :D

*note to Mel -
there's so much snow here and it's new snow - so it's white just like the beach!
sky is royal blue - but i'd rather be at the beach! currently 7 degrees F.

not drinking, but i LOVE this song! hellogoodbye

I love a good lychee martini, champers, good whiskey on the rock & some really good red wine for New Years - yes all of that ... LOL. However, as normal, this New Year's Eve I will be performing and that means no drinking till after. By the time I get back to the hotel & everyone can gather after freshening up, it would be the wee hours. But never mind, we've planned a cheese, fruit, wine & choccie fondue do in my room for those who are not going out to party! And more dancing ... as if we'd not done enough! LOL.

Hope everyone here will have a safe & meaningful & fun New Year's Eve & Day. This year would not have been as fun without you, Sarah. Thanks for giving me hours of viewing & reading fun & I look forward to more in the new year!

I'm too young to drink, but who cares?
I just take some from my sister,,, she's the best! haha...
I had Tequilla on Christmas and OMG it freakin' BURNS down your throat,, well I bet all of you likes it,, 4 more years untill I'm legally allowed to drink and in US 6... haha..
It so funny after you cross the border from Canada to US you're not allowed to buy booze! lol.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Yay for bubbly apple cider? XD
We still have a couple of bottles left over from last year... *wonders if they'd still be good* haha. -_-

Alcohol is totally overrated! I prefer some sparkling cider or a coke instead.
Celebrating new years with some fireworks and warm 70 degree weather! Hopefully it won't be too smoky out this year.

I see we don't have the Southern US represented here. Down south (Texas), we like our margaritas and our mojitos. Mojito is southern limenade with crushed mint and rum (if you haven't had one, you're sooo missing out).
Sometimes I fancy myself an uptown girl, so I like my occasional appletinis too.
I don't like the taste of cheap champagne, so I usually ring in the New Year with Asti Spumante Sparkling wine ($100 compared $10...the choice is simple.)
Can't seem to hold the liquor anymore... I'm out with just one glass these days.
So all you young'uns out there, have one for me.
Have a safe and happy time, we'll see ya'll next year.

I don't really drink much but I like some dessert wine once in a while. I got to work on New Year Eve till 9pm and off to church for a ThanksGiving Night Service. Most of my New Year Eves, I spend in church with my husband and friends. After the countdown, we will head for the Mamak store for supper till 2am.
BLESSES NEW YEAR JAVABEANS and thank you for your reviews and report throughout 2007. May you 2008 be filled with greater endeavour. Bless you.

But Death Cab's The New Year is just oh so good though! My friends and I were singing it as 2007 begun. We were a little hyper that night though...

Yeah, cheap champagne just isn't worth it. Go for the good stuff! I'll be visiting family this year, so probably nothing exciting planned. Last year, we just went to bed early. I guess I'm just an old fuddy-duddy, well not THAT old. Have a happy & safe New Year's everyone!

*Note to canyayasis*
I'm Sorry to hear the weather is so cold over there :(

@katwoman, as the self-appointed (is there any better way in a democratic country like ours?) rep for the Western US states, i'd like to say that many of us also like our champagne here in SoCal. Personally, a glass or two of Vueve Clicquot usually does it for me. Anymore, I become uncontrollably happy. I prefer to be able to have some sort of self-control among relatives and family ya know.

@merriwhether: Death Cab rulez.

This New Year is ski then champagne for me. Preferably not in the reversed order since i'd like to be back here to read javabeans' post on Hong Gil Dong next week. Have a wonderful welcoming of the New Year everyone. Peace!

:D new year's eve is my birthday! i was gonna spend it with friends.. bonfire, hang out at my friend's beachhouse, etc. BUT. i found out my dad cancelled all his plans with firends to spend the day with me, so i'll be spending my new year's eve with my parents and sister. WHOOOt. haha.

Try a whiskey sour, its good

Sangria for me or silver patron margarita...easy on the triple sec just cause.....
HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE!!!!!!

This blog's greatness shines in these random threads.

Prosecco creates (almost) the same buzz as bubbly, but minus the hangover.
Otherwise, sake or a nice single malt on the rocks whiles away the time to midnight.
Coming from a country with strict drunk driving laws, enjoy the night, but if you drive, check with a breathalyser first!

Happy 2008 everyone!
