The New Year
It's been a while since I've written here but I'm coming back today with a new English entry.My New Year's day was like every other new year. Since I don't have family in the city where I live, besides my sister and mother, I cannot say that my Christmas or New Year's day were amazing. Actually they are (they're) always a bit boring.
Yesterday morning my mom started to cook a dish called buffalo chicken wings and then she baked a chocolate cake and that's what we ate at night. My sister and mother went to sleep early because they were tired for the day. I stayed awake until 2:00 AM studying French and taking care of my dog because he was scared because of the fireworks.
That's all for today. Thank you very much for the corrections guys :)

*In this instance, New Year should be capitalized since it's a proper noun.
**they're is the contraction of 'they are'.
***Buffalo chicken wings isn't grammatically incorrect, but the chicken is commonly left out.
**** Always look whether you can break up a long sentence into multiple ones. That makes it easier to read. For instance: " Yesterday in the morning, my mom made a dish called Buffalo wings and baked a cake. That's what we had for dinner."
