Four Word Writing Prompt: New Years Eve

The New Year is upon us.  For many of us, it is a time to set forth goals, make plans, and get ready for a year of accomplishment.  It's time to make New Year's Resolutions.  In honor of that tradition, I've come up with a four-word prompt.  But, I suspect you could twist it about to make quite a few different stories.
