| I split each year into 2 halves - Christmas and July 4. Every year, I eagerly wait for July 4 to come, my top favorite holiday, as, on that day, I get to shoot off fireworks. I enjoy doing this a lot and have been since I was 6 or so years old. This year was quite different from all others as both my sister was with me and I got considerably more night time stuff than day time stuff due to 2 reasons. First, the night time stuff is more exciting than the daytime stuff though shorter lasting for the price. Second, the place I go to to buy fireworks didn't have some of the stuff I like - smoke balls especially. Still, there was a way to get combos. One of which was that of shooting off 30 bottle rockets in a single batch with 26 or 27 preceeding that. Another involves sparklers, one of the least exciting of all light-emitting fireworks, but yes, even these can be chained, although it's apparently difficult to do. After these combos comes the night time stuff, several fountains, roman candles, then artillery shells (30, 18 from me and 12 from my sister), and finally my finale, of which wasn't a well-liked one, the least liked of all the finalies. With July 4 now over, I wait for Christmas, the next half. Once Christmas 2010 is over, it's back to waiting for July 4, in 2011. |
