Good Luck

As the skies turned dark, households across the city buzzed with excitement. 

2023 had been a year where many struggled, but it also couldn't be denied that it was memorable. It was one for the books. 

The year passed by in the blink of an eye, but at the same time, it felt gruelingly slow. It could be compared to the junior year, a.k.a the worst year in high school—classes and requirements just never seemed to end, but looking back on it, one would realize there was so much more that could have been done.

After a whole year of celebrations and defeats, the year had finally ended. 

And while some might miss it for the memories it birthed, it was safe to say that most are happy to mark a new beginning in their lives. 

The cold air was filled with the aroma of delectable dishes. Families gathered around their kitchen, preparing the feasts they were going to indulge in after the countdown.
