Independence Day  
I am going to talk about this story. This September 15 is a very important date for my country Guatemala. Everyone dresses in white and blue clothes. They dance and they make parades and they put on these clothes because they represent my flag of my country. I got to dance at school in my village and today they cook and make all the typical food they eat in Guatemala and my favorite dish is ‘’chuchitos’’. All the food was sold in one area and later when the dance was over we did and. Then soccer started and I didn't play this sport because I don't like to play soccer. And every year when that date arrives I always get up early.And now I no longer celebrate because it is no longer the same, because I am no longer in Guatemala and because of school and also work no longer gives me time, but it does not mean that I do not have Independence Day, this is still in my memories and my heart.
