Christmas ‘07
On my Winter Break I had a lot of fun. Christmas shopping was fun because it was fun to choose things for a person’s present. Sometimes, when we went shopping I would get distracted by something, (usually books,) and I would get lost. At Christmas time my family does a tradition with our cousins. Our tradition is that we go on Christmas Eve to my one of my second cousins house to celebrate my 4th oldest cousin who is at the house’s birthday. When almost every one in families is there we eat the food. It usually consists of turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, soup, and cake. When we finish eating my cousins, sisters, and me go downstairs to play games. (By the way most of my cousins are older than me by 7-12 years.) This year we played with the Wii. When it was 12 we went upstairs and opened presents. This year I got two DVDs, one PC game, a lot of clothes, a homemade globe, a backpack, and other things. We stayed at my cousin’s house until 3 am. On New Years Eve we went to my cousin’s house again. It was almost the same except without the turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, and a lot less people. We ate shrimp, lettuce wraps, chicken, and soup. We stayed downstairs to watch High School Musical 2 Extended Version. and Bridge to Terabithia. We stayed downstairs until 11:55. When it was 12 we watched the fireworks on TV. For a few seconds the fireworks had “technical difficulties.” At 2:30 am we went home. On Jan. 5 we went to my other cousins house. We ate spaghetti, sinigang, cheese cake, and garlic bread. After eating we played with a Wii. (This house also had a Wii.) It was fun to play boxing with my sister. (She lost!) Later on we watched videos on You Tube on the Wii. Most of videos are children who are great at singing, for example Charice Pempengco. At around 12 we went home.
