So I just got back from a Christmas Concert held at the university here and it truly was such a fun experience. I didn't know what to expect, except that all the performances were student-acts put on by different international students. There was lots of variety, like songs by Adele and a nice rendition of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." There were also student groups from Japan that sang some pretty cool songs. But the star of the show had to be a student a little different from the rest. I don't know her name, but I believe that she is from Japan, and she is a lot older than other students (at least 65!). She played the piano and sang about 5 to 6 songs in her high operatic voice and proved that she was no stranger to the stage. I am happy to have attended the show because it really was one of the first times that the entire international sector of the university came together as a whole. It seems as though most of the time the people who came as a group have stuck together, which sometimes made it difficult to meet other people. However, this show brought together many people in the name of not only Christmas, but also of uniting the students as a whole. I truly hope that they continue this tradition☺
