I don't like crowds and I hate dancing, so for New Year's Eve, I prefer to stay at home. On December 31, I buy a nice bottle of wine and a four-cheese pizza, my favourite. I choose a few movies to watch while I eat some Christmas chocolates. At midnight, I go to my window to admire the fireworks. This is a special evening for me.

Clever stuff happening!
