Another welcoming party was held for us... This was hosted by the students and they put substantial effort into preparing some performances for us. We were separated into groups when we walked into the student center and we were all with groups of Chinese students. The performances ranged from traditional dance, singing, and also several different instruments. There was a student that played a piece on the violin which was very well done. After the performances, we were instructed to join our groups to make our own dumplings. This turned out to be a little messy but we all learned how to make them with relative ease. The host of the party asked us to do some performances. Some of the MMA kids did a song for the crowd which got quite a few laughs. The party ended with some social time and I met quite a few different students from a variety of majors.
