Gocha Tsiklauri – New Year’s story

In one big city called London, lived a little boy named Ebenezer Scrooge. In the city where he lived, the New Year was especially celebrated. On the first day of New Year, a parade was held, which was attended by millions of people. This parade was special because the money raised in it was donated to London charities. The Ebenezer loved New Year and always looked at it. 

It’s coming. On New Year’s Eve, he would put a plate on the table before going to bed to leave Santa present for him. It was dawn on New Year’s morning. The Scrooge was 4 years old. He happily waited for the gifts, but didn’t receive them. The reason to this was death of his father, who was sending money to Santa for gifts. So it went on every year, this greatly affected the small Scrooge, from an early age he had to take care of himself. Become uncommunicative. He lost trust in other people, he only thought about collecting money to fulfill the desires he had dreamed of as a child. 

Scrooge also treated employees badly, did not give salaries to employees. In modern life, Scrooge would not be able to retain employees and would have to close the company because without employees, the company could not exist.

Tamar Lotishvili – Phileas Fogg’s New Year

New Year is coming. New expectations, new wishes and new adventures are coming with New Year. It would be interesting for me how Phileas Fogg, his family and his friends are going to celebrate New Year. This is what I am going to write about in my essay.

Phileas Fogg and his wife are decorating Christmas tree , Jean Passepartout is cooking ginger breads and other Christmas meals too, throwing fireworks, singing and playing, inviting close friends but they do not know how to use their phones so Aouda has got a friend whose name is Mr. Seeker. Aouda sends a letter  and asks for help. Mr. Seeker comes to their house and helps them. Phileas Fogg must be very interested in modern technologies, internet and this would be a challenge but he would not be afraid of challenges. He would use the internet and modern technologies to travel again in those countries where he travelled around the world in 80 days. Aouda would learn how to use internet and order food by Glovo.

Finally, if Phileas Fogg travelled in 21th century he would have some problems in learning technologies, but he would overcome it soon.

 As for me, I would like to travel in the USA, visit Disneyland and have fun there in 2022. I can visit amusement parks, a rollercoaster, fairytale land where I can meet Snow White, Elsa and many others.

Saba Rusitashvili

Hi, I am Gulliver nice to meet you! I want to tell you one story about my adventure but first, I want to tell you about myself.  

 When it’s a New Year, I always get a Christmas tree. My wife son and me, always celebrate the New Year. I always had one big problem, they had missions. My lord always had a mission for me. I don’t have time to enjoy these wonderful times, but there is one way how to avoid these situations. I’ll visit my lord, and say to him that I went to enjoy some time with my family. My lord is very heartfelt, so I think he will say yes. I would like a brand new ship for Christmas.  

Now it’s time to tell my adventure in Lapland.  

In December 31, at 23.30 p.m. my friends and I were going on a mission in Lapland. We had to explore this country and write something about it. It was 23:59 p.m. when something strange happened. Right at 00:00 we flew up in the sky! Our ship was soiling on clouds. I was so amazed! We were flying! 

At that moment, we saw a sled flying in the sky. Of course, we thought it was Santa Claus and we were right! Santa was flying to us. When he jumped off the sled, we said hello to him. We told him that we love him and we followed him to Lapland. We landed on the snow and entered his house. In Santa’s home, he gave us ted with bread and jam. Then he spoke to us:  

– Nice to meet you, young boys! 

– Said Santa.

– It’s nice for me, too! Answered my friend Jack. 

– How old are you, Mr. Santa? – I asked  

– I’m not as old as you! I’m about 64 years old, boys! – answered Santa!   

We all hoped that we’ll set good presents as ship, golds and etc.  

– I wish that I had a new ship I dreamt in mind. 

– Mr. Santa, how do you get all these presents for kids? Asked john (my another friend), it’s a secret, young boys! – said Santa! 

In the end, Santa Claus gave us a few bottles of water and fruit because we didn’t have any and we arrived home happily.  

What do you like for Christmas? 

Me: I’d like a brand new car.

Nutsa’s New Year’s Eve

2022 I spent a special time in a new environment in Kakheti hotel Savaneti. My father made me a surprise as I have a birthday on December 31st. There were a lot of people, my parent’s friends with their families. I was very happy. We were dancing, singing and we spent a very good time. When there were 5 minutes left before the New Year, my mother entered the hall with my birthday cake. The cake was super nice with 10 candles. I put out the candles on the cake in front of all guests and at the same time there were the sounds of fireworks from outside. Everybody was wishing me a happy birthday and a happy New Year too. It was super funny for me. I was so proud and thankful for my parents that they organized 10th birthday by this way. It was unforgettable. By 2022 I plan to study well, and also want to take a swimming class to improve my swimming. If I have time, I will take a drawing class too.

Keso’s New Year Eve

This New Year was special for me because I spent it with my parents not at home, but in the nice Hotel Savaneti in Kakheti. There were a lot of children. There was a New Year’s concert and everybody enjoyed it. I danced a lot, even I sang a song in front of all guests. Everybody applauded me. I was so proud. Suddenly Santa Claus entered the hall, he gave us gifts and sweets. When I came closer to him, suddenly I recognised him, wow it was my uncle.  I didn’t say anything to him, but it was so funny. He tried to speak in a different voice like he were a very old man. I laughed a lot. When the fireworks started I thought my favourite dreams come for this New Year. I hope it works and for the next year my dreams will come true. 

We had a very good time. I never forget that night.  For the next year I want to take modern dance classes. I love to dance, when I hear the music I start dancing. I also want to improve my English and go for travel to Europe with my parents.
