Our Tet Holiday There are three weeks left before our Tet Holiday. The weather now is sort of cooler than the weather last year. Outside, many shops on the streets began to sell some Tet stuff, and people go window shopping at night. Each year, at this time, the atmosphere brings to mind my childhood. I remember I always looked forward to enjoying this biggest event. The more I get older, the more I am afraid of the holiday. That’s because there are a lot of things to deal with, such as buying things to decorate my house or renovating it to be ready to celebrate the holiday, and giving gifts to my boss, close relatives or friends. Generally, too much work needs to be done, but I’ve already had a lot on my plate. Anyway, I will have one week off to spend time with my family and friends. Melodies from the Spring songs will make my heart sing and my brain younger. Spring Festival won’t be a pain in the neck if we know how to take pride in even the small details of life, and forget about causal responsibilities during the event.

Our Tet Holiday

There are three weeks left before our Tet Holiday. The weather now is sort of cooler than the weather last year. Outside, many shops on the streets began to sell some Tet stuff, and people go window shopping at night.

Each year, at this time, the atmosphere brings to mind my childhood. I remember I always looked forward to enjoying this biggest event. The more I get older The older I get, the more I am afraid of the this holiday. That’s because there are a lot of things to deal with, such as buying things to decorate my house ,  or renovating it to be ready to celebrate the holiday, and giving gifts to my boss, close relatives or and friends. Generally, too much work needs to be done, but I’ve already had a lot on my plate. 


Anyway, I will have one week off to spend time with my family and friends. "Melodies from the Spring" songs will make my heart sing and my brain younger. Spring Festival won’t be a pain in the neck if we know how to take pride in even the small details of life, and forget about causal ?? responsibilities during the event.

 

Word selection: I don't think that you are afraid of the holiday. 'Dread' or 'loath' are commonly used for a sentiment such as yours.

Assuming this is a song title, I put quotations around it.  (Melodies from the Spring)

'pain in the neck' sounds too strong and like slang here. Maybe "wont be so tedious", "won't bother me", etc.

'causal' I don't understand this
