Yesterday, for the first time, Budhe Iwu, my mom and I went to the city to see the fireworks. We waited for midnight in Ali Baba restaurant. Budhe Iwu and my mom said that it was totally different world outside. We saw so many young people gathered in Garema Place. They wore many kinds of summer clothes and accessories, funky hair cut and color, smoked and drank alcohol. The music was so loud and the light made us dizzy. However, we felt safe, because there were many policemen and fire fighters around.
Around quarter to midnight we walked to a place close to Canberra theatre and Civic library, where the fireworks were held. Five minutes to midnight the loud music was stopped. Ten seconds to midnight, all people counted backward 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 ... "Happy new year!!!" and the fireworks began. It was beautiful.
Happy new year, everybody! May it bring happiness to us all.
