Chinese New Year

At Chinese New Year, Chinese people usually do a lot of things, such as cleaning the house and buying new clothes to bring good luck. My family also did some of those things since we didn't want to bring bad luck for the next year.

Before Chinese New Year, I cleaned my home and threw away some useless things. I also bought food such as cashews(my favourite nut), chocolate and almonds with my family to fill the candy box. The food was delicious so we ate a lot of them. I also needed to fill the candy box very often.

On the first day of Chinese New Year, I went to see my relatives. We talked about what we would do at Chinese New Year. We also ate dim sum, including rice rolls and beef balls. The time was joyful and I hope I will see them later. After that, I went shopping in Causeway Bay with my father. We bought some cheese tarts there and shared them with my family. The cheese tarts were sweet and tasty so we liked them a lot. After eating the tarts, we went back home and played board games.

I stayed at home on the next few days since I didn't need to visit any relatives. However, bad things came at the eighth day of Chinese New Year.

At that day, I felt sick after visiting my relatives. I went to see the doctor but the clinic was closed. Therefore I went to see another doctor in Shaw Kei Wan. The doctor said that I had caught a cold so I could not eat any snacks in the next few days. I was miserable about that.

Overall, my Chinese New Year was fun except the time when I got sick. I hope I won't get sick in the next holiday.
