By: ____________ on __________ 6:25 PM # 3 I think it’s a good idea to do something different on your birthday. You can try to do something new, for example, have a new haircut or cook a meal by yourself. My birthday is on 15th November. I usually eat long noodles on my birthday because long noodles means a long life in China. Besides, my mum usually cooks red eggs for me because the colour red means hope and new life. They believe it can bring me good luck. Our family also take a photo together. It’s interesting to see how we change every year. But this year, I want to have a special birthday party like a pajama party. I can invite some of my close friends to come and stay overnight. We can play games, have delicious snacks and talk freely. It’s a time to make our friendship stronger. And it must be very fun!
