Chinese New Year Performance

Abby is studying Chinese in school. Her Chinese class performed tonight at the Mayo Chinese Students and Scholars Association's Chinese New Year Celebration. Abby was excited about "performing on a real stage."

She wore a beautiful silk Chinese jacket on loan from her friend Jili.

We thought she might back out at the last minute, but she bravely went on!!!

When the curtains opened, Abby was standing right in front. Her eyes looked huge as she looked out at the crowd of 200 or so people. She was standing in front of the mike, and you could hear her say, "There are too many cameras!"

Will and I don't know what they were singing, but the mostly Chinese audience seemed to love it!!
