New Year Explanation

The basic gist of a new years celebration is to celebrate the new year that is coming ahead. But this is not so true, I believe I hear that in Canada people celebrate the "old years". During this they celebrate the year that they are in coming to an end. For example it's 2011 they would celebrate 2011 coming to an end rather than 2012 beginning.

Most people know what a New Years resolution is but in case you did not here's a definition that I pulled from Wikipedia. "A New Year resolution is a commitment that an individual makes to a personal goal, project, or the reforming of a habit." I myself did not make a resolution because I am generally a lazy person.
