Today, I attended a Chinese Culture Festival on the South Oval. There was so much to experience: food, music, games, crafts. I saw instruments I've never seen before, and they sounded so beautiful. The guzheng was my favorite. To hear a song played on it, I recommend going to: https://vimeo.com/231458485 There were Chinese games as well, including Mahjong and Archery. There were crafts for Chinese knots and bracelets. It was so beautiful seeing so many people working together to make the dragon dance. My favorite part was trying to write "hello" in Chinese calligraphy. I wasn't interested in Chinese culture before. However, experiencing Chinese culture made me realize that I don't just want to learn and experience Spanish-speaking countries, but that I want to experience all of the world. |
The bottom word is my attempt at writing "hello" in Chinese calligraphy. |
