I like being out and about, meeting people and just experiencing life to the fullest.  Some people have the feeling that it is somehow social awkward to do things like go to the movies by yourself or out to any public event, I don't agree with this.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;People can be alone, especially in public.   It's easier that way, if you want to go somewhere you do it, you don't have to wait for permission or worry about anyone else's feelings on it.   Even if you are in some kind of relationship, take a day off.   Enjoy the world around with or without someone else. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4281903404359084615-5698306491666512321?l=funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/feeds/5698306491666512321/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2010/03/go-out-and-about-in-city-events.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/5698306491666512321'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/5698306491666512321'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2010/03/go-out-and-about-in-city-events.html' title='Go out and about in city events'/><author><name>Funthrutheholday</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07073616698718785439</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/SustET79x5I/AAAAAAAAAAM/Ebw7XaHTC1c/S220/holiday+alone.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/S5V0XunejwI/AAAAAAAAABY/Q_q610ii7Vs/s72-c/markets.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4281903404359084615.post-5303310657679343359</id><published>2010-02-22T14:13:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-02-22T15:18:09.866-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dog'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='relationship'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='man&apos;s best friend'/><title type='text'>Who needs to be in a couple when you have a best friend</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/S4MJFJwmkWI/AAAAAAAAABI/Il2BHtbqvYY/s1600-h/Best+Friend.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/S4MJFJwmkWI/AAAAAAAAABI/Il2BHtbqvYY/s400/Best+Friend.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441202758917460322" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Isn't a relationship really just having someone to excited to see you come home at night and to have someone to cuddle up on the couch with?

And it isn't just because other people are having success or even the drive to date but it is for the social stigma for not having someone on that day.   The whole peer pressure aspect to the day gives me a bad taste in my mouth towards dating for a least a month following that day.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My suggestion for that day is to either stay home or go to some location like a dive bar where everyone will be the same situation.   These places will be your reprieve from the usual societal pressure that will have built up on that day.    &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4281903404359084615-5025875623409979727?l=funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/feeds/5025875623409979727/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2010/02/lonely-hearts-unite.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/5025875623409979727'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/5025875623409979727'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2010/02/lonely-hearts-unite.html' title='Lonely Hearts Unite'/><author><name>Funthrutheholday</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07073616698718785439</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/SustET79x5I/AAAAAAAAAAM/Ebw7XaHTC1c/S220/holiday+alone.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/S3CLwsx7j4I/AAAAAAAAABA/xmvs1vddttk/s72-c/single_on_valentines_day_tshirt-p235415358552854538t53h_400.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4281903404359084615.post-8663542801872153753</id><published>2010-01-21T12:08:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-21T12:48:13.506-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Sundance'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Independent'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Utah'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Film'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Movie'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Park City'/><title type='text'>Get lost in the crowds of Sundance!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/S1i2KobOrTI/AAAAAAAAAA4/dxZwRmeB89I/s1600-h/Sundance+Film+Festival.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 230px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/S1i2KobOrTI/AAAAAAAAAA4/dxZwRmeB89I/s320/Sundance+Film+Festival.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5429289644561706290" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I love when you are out and about and you feel bad for the people who are paired off because they can't have as much fun as the rest of us.   This is how it is during the Sundance festival in Park City, Utah.   There is so much going on and so many parties to hit that having a ball and chain, would at least, hinder enjoying the festival as much.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The number one reason to go to this festival "stag" is the fact that they often just have single seats that are open at most shows and they don't want to waste them.   All you need to do is ask and there is a good chance that you may be able to walk in.&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4281903404359084615-8663542801872153753?l=funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/feeds/8663542801872153753/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2010/01/get-lost-in-crowds-of-sundance.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/8663542801872153753'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/8663542801872153753'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2010/01/get-lost-in-crowds-of-sundance.html' title='Get lost in the crowds of Sundance!'/><author><name>Funthrutheholday</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07073616698718785439</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/SustET79x5I/AAAAAAAAAAM/Ebw7XaHTC1c/S220/holiday+alone.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/S1i2KobOrTI/AAAAAAAAAA4/dxZwRmeB89I/s72-c/Sundance+Film+Festival.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4281903404359084615.post-6417178564864519480</id><published>2009-12-16T10:17:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-16T12:51:45.695-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Party'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Celebrating'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Holidays'/><title type='text'>Celebrating the Holidays!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="javascript:void(0)"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/Sykn-hjDptI/AAAAAAAAAAw/BaKBGbG0Zd8/s1600-h/hangover.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 270px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/Sykn-hjDptI/AAAAAAAAAAw/BaKBGbG0Zd8/s320/hangover.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5415903982000514770" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Whether you are out with friends or just at home for this Christmas holiday, I thought I would reiterate  an important time honored tradition.   Eat while you drink for tomorrow, you will not feel well.  We all know the feeling of a hangover and that is not the feeling you want to have on Christmas day from you over celebrating on the eve.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;When you are celebrating your holiday party, make sure that you mixing your drinks with either fruitcake or some holiday breads.   Breads work well on absorbing alcohol and making sure that you will feel great the next morning.  Also, drinking virgin eggnogs or just plain water at the end of the night will help out avoid a painful Christmas day.   &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4281903404359084615-6417178564864519480?l=funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/feeds/6417178564864519480/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2009/12/celebrating-holidays.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/6417178564864519480'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/6417178564864519480'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2009/12/celebrating-holidays.html' title='Celebrating the Holidays!!!'/><author><name>Funthrutheholday</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07073616698718785439</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/SustET79x5I/AAAAAAAAAAM/Ebw7XaHTC1c/S220/holiday+alone.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/Sykn-hjDptI/AAAAAAAAAAw/BaKBGbG0Zd8/s72-c/hangover.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4281903404359084615.post-5383323828644506305</id><published>2009-12-01T09:39:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-12-01T11:29:07.954-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='thanksgiving'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='enjoyable'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='friends'/><title type='text'>Thanksgiving... a great night that hit the night</title><content type='html'>On the night where most people are being harassed by your family, you have another plan.  The one time every year that people feel like you need eat with family...those people that you will just try to avoid for the rest of the year.  I say skip that and go out for the night.  Either alone or with a few friends, you need to go out to a nice restaurant that is open and really be thankful for your year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had a few friends do this with me, a few years back.  We called it Friendsgiving and it was the best Thanksgiving dinner that I can remember recently.  We went out to a fancy restaurant, we had a nice relaxing night and no one was stressed at all over cooking.   This is how holidays should go, we should worry about them all year, we should welcome them and in my opinion, this is the only proper way to do it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4281903404359084615-5383323828644506305?l=funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/feeds/5383323828644506305/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2009/12/thanksgiving-great-night-that-hit-night.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/5383323828644506305'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/5383323828644506305'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2009/12/thanksgiving-great-night-that-hit-night.html' title='Thanksgiving... a great night that hit the night'/><author><name>Funthrutheholday</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07073616698718785439</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/SustET79x5I/AAAAAAAAAAM/Ebw7XaHTC1c/S220/holiday+alone.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4281903404359084615.post-3768791074823584356</id><published>2009-10-30T11:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-30T11:40:13.318-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='trip'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='europe'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='single'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='vacation'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='alone'/><title type='text'>An European trip for the holidays</title><content type='html'>&lt;i&gt;Big trips are always good to take over the holidays.  It usually works in your favor, there are less tourists out and you get to experience different holiday customs.   It also works out that you don't have to take off as much work to have a good two week trip.  I found this article that I gives a few good ideas for anyone thinking like me about talking a nice European vacation this year.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN' 'http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd'&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;&lt;title&gt;New Ezine Articles | Some ideas for an unforgettable New Years’ Eve&lt;/title&gt;&lt;/head&gt;&lt;body&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Some ideas for an unforgettable New Years’ Eve&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; By: Martina Meneghetti&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;For everybody vacation are the best moment, we can relax, enjoy our free time, visit new places, wonderful and exotic places. But not for everybody vacations are the paradise they were looking for, in many cases setbacks are in the offing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;This summer 2009 has already claimed many victims, first of all passengers of airlines Myair and SkyEurope, remained on the ground or even stuck in an airport in some foreign country. And we certainly cannot forget the baggage chaos at the airports of Rome and Milan, the huge flight delays and also the delays in delivery the luggage. These enormous inconvenience adds to the problems of money spent and that probably will never be recovered. Unfortunately for consumers in these cases does not remains much to do. The only way to avoid these setbacks is to rely only on agencies of confidence, with proven experience. And maybe check in advance if the air carrier has got any financial troubles or not. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;After this disastrous summer, between delays and lost luggage, it is better to look ahead and think about the next trip. A very popular tourist destination for new Years’ Eve is Barcelona. Barcelona is without doubts one of Spanish cities with the most active nightlife, also in winter the temperature hardly goes down to zero. For this reason it is certainly a really ideal destination, full of beautiful places to visit, but also locals and clubs of all kinds. You can see the Sagrada Familia, La Rambla, the Barri Gothic or even Mount Tibidabo. &lt;br /&gt;But Barcelona is also known as the city that never sleeps, each neighborhood offers a wide range of locals, depending of which one is more popular at that time. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you do not want to be dragged in crazy dancing, perhaps you are better fit for other cities. A good idea would be to go and visit the Christmas markets in some cities in northern Italy, Germany or Austria. These can offer a truly traditional Christmas atmosphere, plus the opportunity to purchase fabulous ites in theme with this time of year, as warm wool handmade hats and sweaters, original Christmas tree ornaments, candles, essences and so on.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;A lot of travel agencies organize this type of travel, even for a week end or a few days. If these ideas have teased you, try to search on the web for these offers, but be extra careful not to incur setbacks, using not serious operators. Or you can also contact your agency, who will certain offer a package suited for your needs. Before leaving, you may want to pay for some kind of medical and baggage insurance, useful to compensate you in case some unfortunate incidents happen, and almost essential when travelling outside EU countries. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;It is not too early to think about this trip, if you want it to be memorable. Do not think of it at the last minute or you will have to be content or stay home!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;b&gt;Author Resource:-&gt;&lt;/b&gt;  This article was written by Martina Meneghetti, with support from &lt;a href="http://www.clubmagellano.it/aree.asp?key=8"&gt; viaggi per aziende &lt;/a&gt; For any information please visit &lt;a href="http://www.clubmagellano.it/programma.asp?key=1"&gt; oktoberfest &lt;/a&gt;, please visit &lt;a href="http://www.clubmagellano.it/programma.asp?key=12"&gt; week end mistero &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;Article From&lt;/b&gt; &lt;a href='http://newezinearticles.com/'&gt;New Ezine Articles&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4281903404359084615-3768791074823584356?l=funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/feeds/3768791074823584356/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2009/10/european-trip-for-holidays.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/3768791074823584356'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4281903404359084615/posts/default/3768791074823584356'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://funthrutheholidaysalone.blogspot.com/2009/10/european-trip-for-holidays.html' title='An European trip for the holidays'/><author><name>Funthrutheholday</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07073616698718785439</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_C5cBIHawS2s/SustET79x5I/AAAAAAAAAAM/Ebw7XaHTC1c/S220/holiday+alone.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4281903404359084615.post-5552289556077220264</id><published>2009-10-08T09:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-08T09:34:09.133-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Have a great time stag through any holiday.</title><content type='html'>It is funny how our culture has decided, that it is wrong for us to be without a significant other during any of the big holidays.
