The Stages of New Years Eve As Told By The Office

8:00PM - Setup

You have your beer, your wine, your liquor, your veggie platters, your chicken wings, and your tub of kidney beans

.

8:30PM - Everyone starts piling in.

You have the party goers who know their one and only goal is to black out as hard as they did in college because New Years Day is nothing more than the first out of many failed attempts at a high reaching resolution.


And those who are much more excited about whatever this new year will bring them.

8:31PM - Drinks are flowing...heavily.

9:00PM - You're sufficiently buzzed and ready for a snack.

The cheese platter seems to be untouched but everyone's thinking the same thing. Who's going to make the first move?

But we all prepare in different ways...


9:30PM - "Sometimes you just have to be the boss of dancing." -Michael G Scott

10:00PM - Conversation starts heating up.

True feelings are shooting out like wildfire.

Someone's bound to get offended.


The rest of you just keep sippin'.


10:30PM - Your freaky side comes out to play when your dancing gets a little more...interesting.

There's the ladies,

And the gentlemen.

11:00PM - The drunken heart-to-hearts break out in different rooms throughout the house.

Someone somewhere is questioning every decision ever made in 2016.

11:15PM - Words start slurring.

Everything stops making sense.

11:30PM - Everyone reconvenes for an poorly-timed group photo.

"COME ON GUYS GROUP PHOTO GROUP PHOTO. EVERYONE GET IN. RONNIE, THAT MEANS YOU TOO. GET OVER HERE GREGORY OR YOUR SLEEPING IN THE DOG BED TONIGHT."

11:45PM - True resolutions trickle out of unsuspecting party goers.

11:58PM - THE ANTICIPATION KILLS YOU.

12:00 - 3! 2! 1! MAKEOUT!


Unless you're as single as Michael Scott - then you just watch.

Go crazy, everyone. You survived 2016.

College is supposed to be one of the best times of your life. However, it is also one of the toughest transitions to make.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
