My New Year's Day Diary: Reflections on "About New Year's Day" English Essay
Today is January 1st, and I woke up feeling excited about the new beginning. After writing my "About New Year's Day" English essay yesterday, I realized how much this holiday means to people worldwide.
In my essay, I discussed:
- The history of New Year celebrations
- Different cultural traditions
- Personal resolutions for 2024
This morning, my family followed our tradition of eating tangyuan (sweet rice balls) while watching the sunrise. It reminded me of the paragraph I wrote about family bonding during New Year in my English composition.
Later, I video-called my pen pal in America. We compared how we each celebrated, just like the cross-cultural comparison section in my essay. It's fascinating how the same holiday can be observed so differently!
As I end this diary entry, I'm grateful for the opportunity to learn more about New Year traditions through writing my English essay about New Year's Day. It made my celebration much more meaningful this year.
