My New Year's


My name is Jack, and I live in Chicago. New Year's Eve is always a fun night. Every year I go to a big party. At the party there are bright lights and loud music. I dance and sing with friends and family. At midnight, there is a large celebration. I watch the big ball drop on the TV. It is a very noisy night. The next day I am tired and sleepy. I don't go to work on January 1st, New Year's Day.


Do you celebrate New Year's Eve? What do you do?
