The Spring Festival
February 19th, 2015 was the Spring Festival, the Chinese Lunar New Year. All the Chinese would enjoy a seven day holiday starting with this day.
Early in the morning I was woken up by the loud explosions of firecrackers coming from far and near. After getting up I went out of my resident building to set off some fireworks. Following a loud explosion, a fire ball rose high up, illuminating the whole sky and bursting into the shape of a colorful flower. I got excited. What a joy! By the time the sun rose up in the east, the air was full of the smell of gunpowder. I suddenly realized that the air was heavily polluted, for which I felt sorry but it was really a great fun!
When I came back to my flat, the delicious dumplings were served on the table. After breakfast, I put on my new clothes and went out of home to find my schoolmates to play together. I felt happy and gay through out the Spring Festival.
