Doesn't really make sense to me why people regard it with so much enthusiasm, but then again, most of folk superstition doesn't really make much sense to me except that which was obviously implanted via commercialism.
So, what's the big deal? It's just another day, that won't happen again just like any other day, the calendar is a largely arbitrary system (We could have the new year at any day of the year and it'd be just as valid). No one celebrates the end/beginning of every month that I know of, so calendar changes aren't a big deal to most... While I'm all for celebrating change, that happens every day, and there's nothing particularly special about the new year. Is it just an excuse to get drunk and make out at a particular time, or what?...
