Polished transcript:

Male Female

I am describing a vision that I have laid for a particular holiday for a long time. So, it's New Year. As we know, New Year is the most widespread holiday in the world. Most people tend to visit their friends, family, and relatives during this time. Because of the New Year, we get some holidays to relax and escape from the hustle and bustle. I started preparing for this holiday a week ago, if I’m not mistaken, on December 25th. Our school's off-season is finished, and I arrived home to decorate my room and house. I like decorating because it improves the house's appearance, and I usually decorate with bright lights. It creates a sense of... how can I say? It creates a sense of calm and beauty. So, I'm going to decorate my room with a little light. Thank you for watching.
