New Year’s Eve in Hawaii
New Year’s Eve in Hawaii is a very special event for the
local people that live there.
On New Year’s Eve in my family, we would normally gather
with friends and family. It was like a big party
at someone’s house. Fire works for my family was a
big part of it. When I was growing up in Hawaii, I used to
go to my Aunt’s house every New Year’s Eve with my parents.
For us kids, New Year’s Eve was a big deal. We would
pig out on food that my family made. Then, when evening came,
we would play with fireworks, while the grown ups
supervised us. Together with my cousins, we would always
compare fireworks stashes. Sometimes before lighting things,
we would imagine what they would do.
We did very typical things with
the fireworks like blow up ant hills.
Most of all, I got to spend time with my family.
I have many fond memories from the many New Year’s Eves.
Actually, fireworks in Hawaii represent a blend of
ancient Hawaiian traditins. Asian cultural influences
and modern celebrations, symbolizing warding off evil spirits,
welcoming new beginnings, community bonding, and peace.
In 2014, it was the last time I bought fireworks for it all
became illegal after that. However, since then,
that has not stopped many Hawaii residents from setting
them off. Fire works is a part of Hawai’s many different
cultures and so even with laws in place, it still
remains a tradition for many families.
