NEW YEARS !

Tomorrow is going to be New Year'! I still cant believe that 2011 is almost over and soon it will be 2012! I was watching an Indian Talk Show and they are talking about different New Year traditions around the world. As they were discussing about all these different countries I was really surprised with all the traditions! For example: In Brazil, priestesses of the local macumba voodoo cult come out and do some rituals. That is very different from what the American culture does during New Years, which is to just party together/have fun/etc. Not only that but while I was thinking about all these New Year traditions, I realized that the Indian culture has a very different tradition too. Our New Years is called Ugadi and it is on March 23.  On that day we usually pray/party/have fireworks/etc :)


Even though everyone around the world has different New Year traditions, we all still do something called, "making resolutions".


I never end up following mine but maybe this year I will! 


Anyway,
HAPPY NEW YEARS!
