Happy New Year, everyone!!! Yesterday I went to the ball drop om times square!! My roommate and I waited 13 hours for it in the freezing cold but it was amazing!!! At 6PM the ball went up, there was a ceremony and fire works! from that moment on there was live music from Taylor Swift, Magic, Idina Menzel, O.A.R., American Authors, Florida Georgia Line. they gave scarfs, gloves, hats, ... away. almost every hour there was confetti or huge balloons. All evening long there were countdowns for othe countries, so I was able to do the countdown from belgium aswell. the surprise host was Kat Graham, also known as Bonnie from the Vampire Diaries. One
minute before midnight the sixty second countdown started and at
midnight there was confetti like I had never seen before and fire works.
It was amazing!!!
For the people who are planning on going, this is what you need to know: -Do not bring a backpack, you can't take it with you. Just put your stuff in a plastic back and don't bring to much. -You can't go to the bathroom. -If you want a good spot, make sure you'll be there around 11AM, I know you have to wait a long time but it is all woth it! -You're waiting in the freezing cold so bring a blanket or something, it helps alot.
My life in New York
