BRISBANE, Australia – Australia has many ways to celebrate the coming of a new year. With that, each Australian has their own unique way of celebrating. Here are mine:
1.       Sleep in. Oh yeah.
2.       Late lunch with some mates. We decided to try this new Japanese restaurant that opened up close to where we all live. We also decided to never go there again. (We liked their paper bibs, though).

4.       New Year’s Eve house party. Junk food + Limitless amounts of games + Great friends + Hours ‘til the New Year = Best of times.
