(&#8220;Eve&#8221; is also a woman&#8217;s name; according to the Bible, she was the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/resources\/all-women-bible\/Eve\">first woman<\/a> on earth, wife to Adam.) New Year&#8217;s Eve is basically the end of the so-called &#8220;holiday season,&#8221; the time stretching from <a href=\"https:\/\/dreyercoaching.com\/beardeddragonmedia\/holidays\/amazing-thanksgiving-story\/\">Thanksgiving<\/a> to New Year&#8217;s Day. (Some would now say the &#8220;holiday season&#8221; in the US starts on Halloween, October 31.)&nbsp; Hear more about Christmas and the &#8220;holiday season&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/dreyercoaching.com\/beardeddragonmedia\/podcasts\/episode-19-preparing-for-christmas\/\">here<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Since New Year&#8217;s falls exactly one week after Christmas, this is a special time of year. For example, practically all schools and colleges are closed during this period. Most US colleges are closed for about one month, from early December to early\/mid January. Most colleges have their fall semester exams before the Christmas (winter) break, so students returning in January start the spring semester. All <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/K\u201312\">K-12 schools<\/a> are closed for Christmas too, usually for about two weeks or so. Most classes resume on January 2. This is why the online classes at <a href=\"http:\/\/dreyercoaching.com\/\">DreyerCoaching.com<\/a> also pause for about two weeks at this time each year, and restart on January 2.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>New Year&#8217;s Eve is such a big holiday, most businesses close that day, or at least close early. For example, most <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=grocery+store&amp;sxsrf=ACYBGNSzgY6WCcBg87dcQcr03J0wgHe7sw:1575567993405&amp;source=lnms&amp;tbm=isch&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwiexcOUiJ_mAhUCVd8KHV-7CAwQ_AUoAnoECA4QBA&amp;biw=1920&amp;bih=969\">grocery stores<\/a> that are open <a href=\"https:\/\/dictionary.cambridge.org\/us\/dictionary\/english\/24-7\">24\/7<\/a> all year, close only twice a year: over Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and again on New Year&#8217;s Eve until the morning of New Year&#8217;s Day, January 1.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Americans celebrate New Year&#8217;s Eve in many ways. Some <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dictionary.com\/browse\/prefer\">prefer<\/a> to stay at home, just with family, and have a quiet evening. Others like to invite some friends over, or else go out with friends. Many people like to stay up till midnight and &#8220;ring in&#8221; the new year.&nbsp; Some families like to stop right at midnight, <a href=\"https:\/\/ak3.picdn.net\/shutterstock\/videos\/26581523\/thumb\/1.jpg\">hold hands, and pray<\/a> as the new year starts, asking for God&#8217;s guidance and blessing in the new year.&nbsp; For many people, <a href=\"https:\/\/stopdrinkingalcohol.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/hate-alcohol.jpg\">drinking alcohol<\/a> is a big part of New Year&#8217;s Eve. While some people must think it&#8217;s fun to hit the bottle, we should also remember that <a href=\"http:\/\/media.nj.com\/warrenreporter_impact\/photo\/pix-0528mockdrilljpg-700f5e5eb57873ce.jpg\">drinking and driving<\/a> is very dangerous, and can hurt or even kill people. Plus, it seems to me, it is better to wake up on the first morning of the new year feeling good and fresh, instead of having a bad headache or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dictionary.com\/browse\/hangover\">hangover<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Since the world is round and has 24 time zones, different parts of the world celebrate at different times.

Starting on New Year&#8217;s Eve 1907 to welcome 1908, there has been a ball drop slowly from a pole to welcome the new year each December, except for 1942 and 1943, because of blackouts for World War II. Some report that more than 1 billion people watch this on TV, and thousands crowd into Times Square that day, to get a spot to watch it. Since the crowds are so huge, people have to go early that day to get a spot, and if you leave, you won&#8217;t get your space back!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>You can watch a video of the 2017 Ball Drop <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lYNxqR6BQcg\">here<\/a>.
