Customs and traditions play an important role in our family. We maintain our own customs and traditions to strengthen each member's sense of belonging. First, there is one tradition that my family follows on Lunar New Year's eve. My grandparents, my parents, my brother and I always gather in the living room and watch the TV show "Tao Quan". When the clock strikes 12, we have a special meal. Well, my mom cooks a cake and she puts a small strawberry in the cake and then we cut the cake up and everyone gets one piece. The person that gets the piece with the strawberry gets good luck for the entire year. I really like that one. After that, my brother and I will receive lucky money from my grandparents and parents. Then we talk a lot about happy events that happened during the past year and everyone's plans for the new year. We go to bed after having an enjoyable time. I love Lunar New Year's Eve. It's a joyful time that brings my family together.
