ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY FOR ME TO CHANGE!

After the Christmas celebration, people wait for the 31st night, that is the day when we recall all the good and bad memories of whole year and say goodbye to the going year and welcoming the new year. People celebrate this day with music and dance. Children’s are very happy about this as they get lots of gifts and good food to enjoy the new year party.

The elderly encourage children to jump at the stroke of midnight so that they would grow up tall. Many people display 12 circular fruits and wear clothing with polka dots to symbolize money. It is also popular practice to open all the doors and windows at the stroke of midnight to let in the good luck. Many Filipino families also read the Christian bible and attend a church midnight mass. It is common for many Filipinos to blend religion and superstition in celebrating New Year’s Day. And everyone has their own resolution.

To celebrate my New Year, I have to change my bad habits. I have to change myself for the better. I need to stop procrastinating which is the biggest barrier that keeps most people from reaching their goals is the desire to relax and do something fun instead of working hard. Once you get used to procrastinating it’s difficult to snap yourself out of it, so you’ll need to put in a lot of work to change this bad habit. So let's cheer to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.
