INTRODUCTION

There comes a time in everybody’s life when he or she decides it is time to throw a party. There are many different reasons why people want to have a party. Parties are a time for showing off your apartment, new home or recently acquired furniture. A party allows you to pay back others for their parties or dinners. A party may also:

• be the means of you celebrating something new and exciting such as a new job, moving, going to college.
• act as a factor in joint celebration. Your family and friends can spend time together.
• helps you to meet new neighbours.
• helps to solidify or create new relations with co-workers, business partners and the boss.
• help you recognize an older tradition such as Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, birthdays, anniversaries and other holidays and personal moments of celebration.
• be a way to celebrate a new tradition with friends and/or family.

There are so many things a party may be to someone. On one level it expands or controls your social life; on the other, it boosts your personal sense of self-esteem or morale. This is particularly true if you plan a successful event.

The party season does not mean a lot to some people. They dread even the thought of putting together a small dinner party or a large bash. While not everybody likes a party, many people love to attend them. Yet there is no need to have fear of parties. In fact, you should learn to embrace this form of entertainment and reflection of a part of your life. In doing so, you should also conquer any fear of throwing the flop of the year.
