The last day of the year

Because influenza was cured, I played with a friend.
And I eat soba　the last day of the year.Because there is such a custom in Japan.
Is there any custom in U.S.A. on the last day of the year?

Influenza

I was in bed by influenza.
Therefore, I slept during a holiday of the winter.

Merry Christmas

I suffered from influenza in precious Christmas.
Because I was in bed, I was not able to watch the Christmas tree.
How about your Christmas?

Writes after a long time

This was bought today.
This is very sweet and good taste.
