Today
is New Year¡¯s Eve. We have tosay good-bye to the year
2010 tonight. Was this year a happy one for you? Take a moment to think about
the past year and make some good plans for next year. Do you have
any special plans for celebrating New Year¡¯s Eve? Here are some good
ways to celebrate the meaningful day.
*Clean
Your House: Cleaning is one of the best ways to welcome the
New Year. Open the windows to let some fresh air in. Then, roll up your sleeves and start cleaning.
It doesn¡¯t take a lot of time to clean
your room. Sweep the floor and shake the dust off. Then
wipe the floor clean. Also,
throw away or give away the things you
don¡¯t need any more. Now, you are ready to celebrate New Year¡¯s Eve!
*Look Back: It is
very important to look back over the past year and New Year¡¯s
Eve is the perfect night to do so. Reflecting
on the past year will help you make better plans for the New Year.
One of the great ways to look back over the past year is to read your
diary. Go to your room and read it quietly. Looking at photo
albums from the past year can also bring backprecious memories. While
looking at your diary and photo albums, you will come up with great new ideas
and plans for the New Year.
*Make a Time Capsule: Make
your own time capsule. Prepare a small box, a piece of paper, a pen,
and an envelope. Calm yourself and
take a deep breath. Close
your eyes for a moment and think carefully about your dreams
and goals. Open your eyes and
write down your wishes and
goals for the upcoming year. Fold the paper and put it
in the envelope and put it in the box. Do not open it until next New
Year¡¯s Eve!
*Spend Time with Your Family: Plan a fun family night
to celebrate New Year¡¯s Eve.
Sit down with your family and make New Year¡¯s resolutions together.
If you make plans with your family, they can help you accomplish your goals. After
making resolutions, why not play fun games with
your family? There are many fun games you can enjoy with them. Don¡¯t
forget to have lots of healthy
snacks around to keep everyone¡¯s energy up!
*Write Thank You Letters to Your Parents: Your parents
always do their best to take good care of you. Why
don¡¯t you write thank you letters to them? Tell them how much you
appreciate their endless love and care over the past year.
It will make their New Year¡¯s Eve extra special!
