I like New Year's Day, it is my favourite holiday. The 1st of January is a winter holiday and now it is the first day of the New Year.
Peter the First changed the Russian calendar in 1699. He made the 31st of December, 1699 the last day of the year. The first of January 1700 became New Year's Day.
The 1st of January is in the middle of winter. The weather is usually fine and there is a lot of snow everywhere. As the 1st of January is a holiday I don't go to school and my parents don't go to work.
We usually have got a very interesting New Year's party at school. We have got it on the 28th or 29th of December.
Our family prepares for this holiday beforehand. My father buys and brings home a beautiful New Year's tree at the end of December. Our family has a tradition to buy it. I like to decorate the New Year's tree with toys, little coloured lights, sweets and a beautiful star on the top.
My mother and grandmother prepare our holiday supper and lay the table. I make a cake.
All the members of our family clean the flat before this nice holiday and then each of us try to dress well. We like to see the New Year in at home with our relatives. They come to see us at 11 o'clock in the evening.
At 12 o'clock we are sitting at the table and we are glad to see the New Year in. We say, "Best wishes for the New Year!"
I hope that next year will be better than the last one.
The New Year's Day is always connected with our new hopes and dreams.
It is a pleasant moment to get presents on the New Year's Eve.
A Letter To Santa Claus Dear Santa Claus, Christmas is approaching, so I’ve decided to write a letter to you. I hope it finds you well. As for me, I’ve been a good girl all this year. I helped my mum a lot in doing household chores. At school I was also a diligent student. I never missed the classes without a valid reason. That’s why I think that I deserve a present for Christmas. I know that you have to visit millions of children around the world and it’s difficult to carry all presents at once. But, if you ever pass by our town, please visit my house and bring me one special present. I would like to receive a puppy as a present, but only if it’s not too heavy for you to carry that many presents. Thanks for reading my letter. I’m looking forward to this Christmas. Sincerely yours, Irina Жирным шрифтом-поменять если мальчик, и имя в конце письма
