MarTIn lUTheR KinG, Jr. dAY

We had a day off today, because it's Martin Luther King Jr. Day. I feel like I'm still having my winter vacation. But instead of sleeping all day, I think I did something this afternoon.

Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and I think it's coming earlier this year. The Taiwanese Student Association prepared an event on Jan. 28th at 6 in the afternoon. They sell tickets to the public that would like to come to the festival, and it's 4 USD for each ticket. They would prepare food, kind of like buffet because it's around dinner time. According to the president of the TSA, the tickets are usually sold out in a very short time. I took part in the festival, and I'm going to be one of the dancers. They "created" a Chinese-like dance which they call the "Joss Stick Dance". We had to hold on to a bunch of joss stick, and do this really elegant dance. The music is soft, but I'm not quite sure about the dress that we're going to wear on that night. One of the Taiwanese video-taped our practice today, and she gave us the website for it. The music is recorded in it, too. Click here to watch the clip.

You might find me making a big mistake. Haha... I know I'm clumsy when I dance.
