New Year's Insight

LA Blogs has some questions for LA bloggers about their New Year's Eves. Check it out.
1. Did you make plans before last minute this year?
But of course.

2. What were your plans?
Friends of mine and I spent New Year's Eve and New Year's Day snowboarding down the slopes of British Columbia's Whistler/Blackcomb resort.

3. Have you ever sprung for a New Year's party at a club/restaurant? If so, where?
Did the big time Giant Village in Downtown a couple of years ago if that counts. Promoted by Giant that year, and by KROQ (apparently) this year, it was fun, but would've been much more fun with a larger group of friends.

4. Drinking this year. In excess, in moderation, not at all?
Moderation, most definitely in moderation. I think it was one total glass of champagne, and cheap champagne at that.

5. How were you feeling New Year's day?
Pretty good, and definitely sore all over from 'boarding (or rather, falling all over the place) the day before.

6. Rose Parade. Still interesting, played out, or a tradition that will never die?
Tradition that will never die. Although watching the parade on TV is something I rarely do, it's a permanent fixture of the Los Angeles New Year's experience.

7. Rose Bowl. Game worth watching, or just a good excuse to rub our sunny (then) weather in the face of Michigan fans?
Worth watching when teams from the Pac-10 are involved. Attending a Rose Bowl game has to be one of the main highlights of my college experience and a lowlight since we were summarily destroyed by Ron Dayne and the Wisconsin Badgers.

8. What resolution have you made that you have no intention of keeping?
I've actually never been one to make resolutions seeing as I'd rather constantly try to think of ways I can be a better person. Is that wrong?
