The word celebration for new year does not really a right word for me. Its not celebration, but mostly about spending some quality time - with close friends or even just by yourself - in the time when you have quite couple of days off.
Back when I was student, during my bachelor study I would spend end of the year with friends. We could go to bascarsija for a cup of coffee or maybe topla cokolada . Some year we would just spend the night at home but would have a grand Turkish Breakfast in the morning - which usually last till evening
Years later, traveling become a muat thing yo do as we had 2 weeks off from christmast till new year.
Well, it was all about spending some good time
Kata "perayaan" tahun baru mungkin sedikit tidak tepat untuk saya. Bukan perayaan, tetapi semestinya menjadi memanfaatkan waktu kosong yang cukup lama dengan hal-hal yang berguna. Ntah itu menghabiskan waktu dengan kerabat dekat, ataupun memanjakan diri dengan sesuatu yang kita minati
Waktu jaman-jaman kuliah dulu, pas S1 misalnya. Akhir tahun kita habiskan dengan main ke pusat kota atau bascarsija untuk menikmati segelas kopi hangat atau coklat panas "topla cokolada" . Ada kalanya cuma berdiam di rumah, sedangkan esok paginya kita akan sarapan + brunch ala turki yang super banyak menunya
End of 2017, I was still traveling with friends to a nearby island. Once I got home,a cup of Salep - turkish drink combined with cinnamon - and a new book were my next thing to do to spend the night. It was raining too, it made everything even better.
Di penghujung tahun lalu - alias kemarin, saya menghabiskan waktu dengan teman-teman dan ngetrip ke Pulau Keuh di Aceh Jaya. Begitu nyampe rumah, langsung memanjakan diri dengan segelas salep hangat - minuman turki dengan campuran kayu manis- , serta sebuah buku karya penulis favorit Jane Austen. Hujan pula di luar, makin sempurnalah suasana tahun baru di rumah semalam

Talking - or writing -about new year resolution is not my thing to do. I am quite a person who does thing by following what appear in front of me. Let it flow, I would say
But a quote from one of writer I recently knew, sounds click on my mind
New year, continue doing good thing - what I have been doing for the last year, and stop whatever bad thing from last year.
As simple as that
Or I would say differently,
Just be a better version of yourself.
Happy new year btw :)
Menulis resolusi tahun baru bukanlah sesuatu yang saya lakukan dari dulu. Pernah sih nyoba, tapi kemudian ya gitu...cuma sekedar tulisan. Resolusi sebenarnya malah tertempel di dinding rumah. Wrll, walaupun keseringan justru mengikuti apapun yang ada di depan mata.
Dan semalam, saya gak sengaja membaca tulisan seorang penulis yang baru-baru ini saya kenal tulisannya
Tahun baru, melanjutkan hal-hal baik yang dilakukan di tahun sebelumnya, dan meninggalkan hal-hal buruk dari tahun sebelumnya.
Sesederhana itu.
Atau lebih sederhananya lagi
Jadilah sesorang yang lebih baik dari sebelumnya

Sangat mengesankan, sebenarnya bukan di momen tahun baru saja berkumpul dengan kawan dan jalan2 tp seharusnya kapan saja ada waktu luwangkan buat teman dekat atau karabat.
Kawan lebih menyenangkan krn di situ duka cita dan senang ada di sana.
Bertualang dan jalan2 sangat menyenangkan, bisa ngenghilangkan beban yang lama menumpuk karena bosan.
Salam kenal y @rahmanovic

yes, you are right. a new year is not just a celebration, but it is a chance to come close to friends, and spend some time with family and relative. it is an opportunity in which all other have vacations, and free time.
