Can you believe that tomorrow is New Years Eve? Am I the only one who thinks this year went by so quickly? I have a question for you guys, name 3 words to describe this year! Mine would be: Challenging, surprises and goodbye since this year was my last year of my Primary School. Now I'm moving onto High School! Have a great New Years Eve 😄

Hi! Happy new year! 3 words: crazy, shocking, even more crazy! I know that’s technically 5 words, but 2022 really was a crazy year, at least for me.

hi, DOGO! so, recently, my mom and i were watching news, and i saw that in NY, snow has been crazy, with all the storms, and about 50 people died. 😭😭😭😭 its because the crazy snow has been up to, like a meter so people couldnt get out of their houses and some starved and died, some people got stuck in their cars and suffered, and some people got stuck outside in the storm, and unfortunately died.😭😭😭 A few kids in target lost their parents and the employees had to take care of them... their parents were so worried!!! 😭 thank god we dont have that kind of weather, but NY is right now in a severe crisis... bless all the people who are trying to help and please pray for NY because they are suffering.🙏💜😭

So sad😭! One time I saw a tornado, But that was months ago...
techfashion0315 techfashion0315

Totally….I totally get what you’re saying about a tornado. I used to live in TX, so I am very accustomed to the effects of tornadoes. 😥 They’re so scary!
jeandance jeandance

Could not have been the cause! Pray for NY 🙏
techfashion0315 techfashion0315

Yes, I’ve seen the reports too! 😭 Super sad. I actually live in NY, but thankfully my area was not affected, although we did see some effects from the storm (A lot of snow, high winds, and power outage). NY, especially Buffalo, needs our prayers! 🙏
