Chinese New Year Assembly

The Chinese New Year Assembly took place on Friday, Jan 28. I'd first been approached by Ms. Li about performing a Chinese piano piece way back in November. In the end, I started practicing a piece at the beginning on this month, and had just about gotten it down, when I was asked if I wouldn't mind instead playing a short simple piece instead, in accompaniment of a performance of the Chinese yoyo by some guy. I was also asked to be MC for the event; perhaps as compensation for asking me to switch performances.

Anyway, I accepted that.

...then, I sprained my ankle severely, and had to stick to just playing accompaniment on the piano, due to being unable to easily walk on and off stage as the MC would have to.

The good thing is that because my role was so reduced, I hardly had to attend rehearsal. However, the little I did see was really eye-opening, as I'd never been part of something like this at SIS before.
