The production reminded me of the various student organizations I was involved in at GW and the year long effort expended in creating an elaborate show such as this. In fact, the Chinese American Student Association (CASA) has an annual Lunar New Year celebration that includes an all you can eat Chinese buffet, video shorts, traditional and modern dances, musical performances, and lion dancing. I remember working long nights with the executive committee and spending hours rehearsing. As difficult and stressful the production was, I loved every minute of it. I received so much joy and self-gratification while interacting with the people who were part of the celebration. I made some great friendships and it was a wonderful outlet from academics and school. I really love CASA (this is NOT an Asian-exclusive organization, everyone is welcome!) and would encourage everyone to check out either the celebration or the organization when they visit campus!

I'd love to answer any questions! Serena
