One day he wrote his wishes in the letter carefully and put it under the tree and was waiting for Santa Claus. He was so tired and soon he slept. When the bell rang 12 o’clock he suddenly opened his eyes and stood up. The letter was not under the tree but instead of the letter there was a small box with strange thing in it. This was a computer with a big screen in it. He had never seen a computer before. He touched it with his hand, the screen lighted up and he saw his friends’ photos and messages in it and how people celebrate New Year in different countries.

In December, one foggy day Miss Mary woke up early in the morning and looked at the calendar, she saw that it was the last day of the year, New Year is coming. Mary was a serious girl. At first glance she was a serious, cold and heartless ten year old girl, but in reality she was very loving, warm and sensitive child. The girl’s parents were always busy, that is why the child was cared for by caregivers and servants. Miss Mary had everything, many toys, and clothes as she want, but Mary had only one unfulfilled dream, and she wanted to spend more time with his family. Several hours passed. Mary’s parents were still at work. It did not snow outside when the house was decorated by the servants for New Year. Miss Mary looked out the window and waited for the New Year miracle, but in vain. Several hours passed again. Mary was asleep, but soon she heard some strange voice and woke up, she ignored it and continued to sleep. That voice was the sound of Mary’s parents locked the door and that sound was coming from downstairs. Mary’s parents had free time to go shopping and buy gifts for her. Two hours have passed. Mary woke up and saw his parents by her bed, she was surprised. Mary didn’t understand what was happening but later she found out everything. Mary and her parents sat down at their big table and that is how Mary’s dream comes true.

Erekle Grdzelishvili – Modern Scrooge

My name is Scrooge. I was born in 2000. I am 22 years old. Now I live alone, away from my family. I am studying computer engineering at the University. I love reading books. I especially read adventure books. However lately I read more often with kindle. Easier to carry and more comfortable. I love the New Year more than any other holiday. I am especially prepared for 2022. I found recipes for delicious dishes on the Internet, I bought all the ingredients online, I did not have to stand in line in supermarkets. I baked cakes, cookies and packed everything nicely.

The Christmas tree also came out original. On the YouTube channel I saw how Christmas trees, toys, various accessories are made from waste and I made and decorated everything with my own hands. A very enjoyable process was the preparation of the Christmas tree trim. I started in late October. I became so skilled at creating my own original toys, I also recorded video tutorials and posted them on the YouTube channel. You will be surprised and my channel has over a million subscribers. So a new hobby and source of income came to me.

I made an electronic greeting card for Christmas and emailed all my acquaintances. In short, a lot of money is saved thanks to the internet. This year I am especially looking forward to the New Year. Unfortunately, I cannot travel with my parents. Instead, my past and future, as well as Marley, are visiting me. They gave me special gifts: the spirit of the past gave me a mirror because it reminded me of my childhood. The soul of the future is a prophetic cup to understand my future. Marley’s soul even gave her a magic pen, which in itself wrote the words dictated on a piece of paper.

On New Year’s Eve we went to a children’s and nursing home. We gave lots of presents, sweets, toys and clothes to the children and the elderly living there. Then we held a concert together. I was happy to do a small favor for them and one day we made it beautiful. When I got home, I also came across secret Santa gifts: an iPhone 13 and a laptop. The New Year preparations went very well, but one fact made me think a lot: there was a lot of noise in the New Year. A torrent of rain fell. The noise covered the whole city. They were very scared dogs and tried to take shelter in my house, they were barking, barking, and asking for help with frightened eyes. Therefore, this year I am going to shelter stray animals and convince people not to let go of the torches.

I want to end the pandemic in 2022 and get back to an active life: football, swimming and being visited often by my friends and relatives, I also really want to travel with my parents.

Taia Kvaratskhelia – Christmas adventure

Christine and Raul got married. They had 2 children named Mary and Betty. They loved spending Christmas together and loved spending time with their family. Christine backed and cleaned the house Raul and the kids decorated the Christmas tree. It was like an unwritten rule for them to do this. Before one of the Christmas nights, Raul told Christine something.

-Honey, we don’t have enough money this year to buy presents for Mary and Betty. They will both get so disappointed if they won’t get presents but what can we do?

– I don’t know Raul but I am sure we can’t afford to buy gifts. We barely pay off the rent.

Meanwhile the girls were listening to them. They both didn’t believe in Santa but this year they gave it a try. They wrote letters to Santa and the next day they took the letters to the mail. Santa wasn’t happy this Christmas too. We all know that he has 9 reindeers. One of them got lost while taking training for flying. Its name was Comet. Comet was one of the most magical reindeers. Santa was very worried about Comet his health and about how he would fly around the whole world with 1 reindeer missing.

-Santa, I don’t think that this year you will be able to give presents to every child. Said Miss Claus. Santa was in disbelief. He didn’t know what to do but Betty and Mary weren’t doing well too. They were both walking down the street and saw something magical. A reindeer was flying around and making loud noises. When the reindeer saw the girls, it flew down. At first, they both were scared but then Mary got brave and went a few steps close to the reindeer.  Mary read the name on the collar.

-Comet… wow such a pretty name. I wonder where’s your owner Comet.

-Mary leaves him alone I don’t think we can find his owner in this huge city.

Betty didn’t want to help Comet she was already mad because she wouldn’t get a gift for Christmas. But her kindness and Mary’s puppy eyes got her to say yes. It was Comet’s first night in the other place then North Pole. The next day when Comet woke up it started yelling. Girls ran towards it. Comet was running around the circles like crazy. Mary was a bookworm and she decided to go to the local library. She read a few old books there about mythical creatures. The most shocking thing about reindeers was that they would lose their power to fly after 48 hours without Santa’s magic. Betty and Mary got worried right away and started thinking about what they could do. After a few hours of thinking Betty got a very dangerous but only idea.

-MARY! What if we sit on the comet and he will take us to the North Pole!

-Well, that’s the most stupid idea I have ever heard and if he can fly, he would’ve gone back to the North Pole.

– He is always under human discipline maybe he needs humans to fly.

 They sat on the Comet and waited for the worst. Fortunately, Comet flew high up in the sky. Girls fell asleep but soon enough they woke up. They were both freezing cold. Santa woke them up. In his workshop.

-Hello kids! I must thank you for bringing my reindeer’s Comet back. I can’t be more thankful to you, so I decided to make your wishes come true a little earlier. Mary, you wished for your parents to get a job so just like you wished your parents got hired in a shop. Betty, you wished that all presents that your family wished for would come true and you got what you wished for. And again, thank you for being so kind and respectful.

Rusudan Jalaghonia – Christmas Chaos

Oh Christmas is the most exciting time of the year. Every kid enjoys it and embraces it. They sing and dance but still there was someone who did not even care. He was Scrooge. He absolutely hated Christmas. His story didn’t melt his heart for long. He still didn’t care about people, he made sure that everyone had a bad Christmas.

One day he decided to take all the presents away as he always wanted all the presents for himself. He started stealing presents. One of the houses he decided to rob, it was a dark wooden house. Inside there were socks hanging by the fireplace, he started stealing all the presents that he found in the socks. While he was picking them up he saw something strange, it looked round and in the middle there was a red shiny button. Scrooge could not resist and he pushed the button.

It was a teleporter and he got teleported in the 20th century exactly on Christmas day. He looked through a window and saw a young kid unwrapping his present. He did not see the device right next to him. Scrooge saw that Christmas wasn’t about the presents or the tree, it was about family, and he realized that he could not ruin Christmas even if he wanted to have lots of presents. 

As he was leaving he saw the device and he picked it up and went back to his time and he brought back all the presents to the kids. He liked to see all the kids smile. When he went back home he felt a warm feeling inside which made him very happy. “It will last forever” he thought “there is no end of Christmas joy.” After that he was nice to everyone and Christmas became his favourite holiday again.
