When I was a child, I celebrated New Year's Eve with all my family. Some days before the celebration, my family saved money to buy a pig, drinks, and things like that. We waited for this day anxiously. That day in the morning, they killed the pig and they prepared the food for the following days. In the afternoon, all of us went out to the street to throw corn flour on each other. After that, we went to change our clothes, and at night we got together outside to eat, dance and shout for joy because of the New Year. At midnight, we also said good bye to the old year by burning dummies on big bonfires. Other families around our house celebrated in the same way.
This is a space for my students to share their writings in relation to the different topics we talk about in class, and an opportunity to give them a more personal touch.
