How it was in 2022

The snow falls smoothly to the ground, enveloping the city in a snow-white blanket. Light bulbs decorate the streets, creating a magical atmosphere. There is a magnificent Christmas tree on the main square, sparkling with lights and toys. The scent of tangerines and hot tea is in the air.

Anna, sitting at the window of her apartment, admired the festive lights. This year she decided to celebrate the New Year at home, in warmth and comfort. She prepared a small treat: salads, baked fish and, of course, the traditional olivier and herring under a fur coat. There was a bottle of sparkling wine on the table, ready to toast at midnight.

The evening was approaching its climax. Anna turned on her favorite music and began to set the table. Suddenly, a call rang — it was her friend Katya, who suddenly decided to cheer up and join the party. In half an hour, they both set the table, laughed and shared plans for the future.

When the clock on the square struck midnight, they went out on the balcony to watch the fireworks. Bright flashes of light tore through the night sky, creating an unforgettable sight. The girls hugged and toasted a new year full of hopes and accomplishments.

"Let 2022 be the year of wish fulfillment," Anna said, and they drank champagne laughing. At that moment, despite all the difficulties of the past year, they felt that only the bright and the best lay ahead.

And no matter how the events unfold, the main thing is that new opportunities and adventures await ahead.
