Thread: How was your new year 2019 started?

It felt so satisfying and it's a very good start for the year. Guys, Tell me how was your new year started?

Mine was neither productive nor energetic. But I stayed vegetarian for the whole day and visited temple too.

That's a good tradition. I want to start the new year with peace. But why is that Jan 1 is a working day here? It's really pathetic that I had to take off.

I've a very contradicting view and I wish they add Jan 1 as public holiday :/
