The last few days have flown away in a moment between the great cleaning costs and a thousand things lae preparation for the New Year ...
the New Year with us and 'the holidays' more' important and celebrated for three days with the family ... In general we end Dec. 28 to work and go on holiday until 4 or 5 January.
And those who live far back from the parents ...
to welcome the God of the New Year (Toshigamisama), cleaned the house and decorate the door with the sacred banner of ropes of straw and branches of pine, the decoration of the room we Moci (rice cooked pasta and pesto) round and plates (Kagamimoci), prepare particorali dishes (OSEC) ... all ready and waiting for midnight to arrive.
At New Year we use new things, clothes and everyday articles ...
I remember when I was a child, the evening of New Year's Eve I slept with my pajamas and my mother was preparing new clothes, new underwear and socks for the next morning ... and in the morning, we used the bowls, cups and Bacchetti all new to the breakfast ... What
nostalgia ... now how many families still maintain these habits ...
I like the quiet and solemn atomosfera New Year, which contrasts with the hectic and hurried the previous days ... but the holidays pass quickly ... unfortunately ... This year we
were so many things ...
Especially the last few months I've lived a little 'how to cross the tunnel along ... or stay on the bottom of the sea ... after the death of my grandparents, one after another in two months, I was so 'depressed than I expected.
And I was always helped by his friends, with messages, emails, letters and gifts from Italy ... Thank you all very ...
But not only ... I also happened to the good things ...
In February I passed the state exam and started the new job ...
Although very slowly, I'm getting closer to my dream ...?
With all these in 2010 was terrible for me, but now is gone ...
I hope the new year be peaceful and happy for me and all ...
