I didn't think it could differ by country. In Mexico, we sing "Las mañanitas" while the cake is in front of us, with a candle on the cake for each year the birthday person has lived. After the song, the person makes a wish in his/her mind (if it is said aloud, it doesn't come true). Then he/she blows out the candles. Usually this is a practice we have as a family. Sometimes there are gifts involved, and parties, but I think this is the heart of every birthday.

My mother is kind. She rarely gets angry. When I was a child and I did something wrong, she told me gently not to do it again. She didn’t yell at me. I learned the importance of being calm from her example. So I always try not to shout even when I get irritated.

I celebrate Christmas by being with my family, laughing, celebrating another year together, giving gifts, and playing Christmas games. Some years, we go on a trip and celebrate with other family members.

It was drizzly and chilly today. In the afternoon, when I was writing, I heard the sound of something breaking. It was my cat - he was fiddling with my yo-yo after he pushed it off the table. Then I discovered the weirdest part—the thread was gone. My cat had eaten up all the thread, and it wasn’t just a length of thread, but a reel of it. I will look up why he did it later. Today’s word is "weird". It's weird of a cat not only to play with a yarn ball but also to eat it.

Hello everyone. I often watch TikTok in my free time. Time goes by so fast when I watch it. TikTok sometimes provides me with very useful information. For example, I studied English with English conversation videos. They teach some common and useful phrases. With this method, I enjoy learning English. In addition, thanks to TikTok, I sometimes find great music. Recently, I'm into "Yoru Naderu Menou" by Ayase. He is a member of YOASOBI. Do you know " Into The Night"? It is their representative song. There are many restaurants I want to eat at due to some people introducing delicious foods on TikTok. What is your favorite app?
