Although the party starts on the last day of the current year, it's purpose is to celebrate the arrival of the New Year and kiss the old year goodbye.

We are celebrating a new year to come. People look at it as a fresh chance to start over with no mistakes yet made. a chance to learn from the past, and look forward to the new time to come.

Depends on if the past year was not too good, then celebrate the new one
