Nowrooz

It is a ceremony that starts from the first day of spring and takes long 13 days. actually many people prepare themselves since 15 days before it. they start cleaning their houses and change the decoration of it or buy something new. it is such a big change that we call it “spring cleaning”. It is very exciting before Nowrooz happens. Shopping center become very crowded and most of people are happy and are really in oscillation. Finally at the certain time that shows earth has orbited the sun once all family members get together beside the”7sin” which they had arranged it before and pray for having a good year in the future. After the arrival of new year they say congratulation and give present to each other. The next day they begin to go to their relatives houses, from oldest to the youngest. it seems funny. you see!? You may see all of your family every day. like a game, you go and then they come!!! Of course in the past people used to act like this, in these days most of them prefer to travel or they can find a free time to relax and enjoy individually. In these small parties the host tries to be hospitable and offers cookies ,nuts and fruits.
These two nice weeks taking long with lot of present for children and also their parents. Maybe you think that it is a good chance for students to study or for others to do the remaining work they haven’t done yet but I swear that no one does this. Although teachers at school make an effort to force student to study but it won’t have any result. I think it is time to just have fun.(at least for me who used to be lazy!)
Any way the last day ends in a picnic in 13th day. Families go out and have a day in the nature. They believe that if they stay at home they will make a miserable number of 13 and get into trouble. you may think that it is a superstition ,but it isn’t . I have tried it…
