Have a Blast on New Year's Without a Date
* Choose the right group to celebrate with. If you have friends who act really exclusive with their significant other (think tons of PDA), don't hang with them.
* Plan your own get-together, whether it's cocktails at your place or a mellow movie night where you and some pals forgo the requisite (and often overrated) festivities.
* If you want to party hard, try to arrange to attend more than one bash. You'll be excited knowing you won't be stuck should one gathering turn out to be a dud for unattached chicks.
* Decide ahead of time what you'll do when the ball drops and couples start kissing. Call your best friend or sister who is celebrating elsewhere or uncork a bottle of champagne at the end of the countdown.
