Dancing Yak
Last night I went to a music and dance performance by a group of Tibetan monks that are on campus. It was wonderful! I particularly enjoyed the animal dances (snow lion and yak) the yak was very silly. And of course the singing was amazing. The whole performance just made me feel happy. There's a Tibetan art exhibition at the Williams College Museum of Art, so they co-sponsored the event so it was free, and a lot of people from the museum and some grad. students were there.
I missed the monks when they came to Dartmouth, Denis had seen them in his world music class and recommended that I go. Denis couldn't come because he was working until 10:45 (truck night at Best Buy). Actually he got out at 10pm, but I didn't get out of the performance until 10:15, and it's a half hour drive to the mall, so was very very late picking him up (poor cold Denis). He actually had to go to a 7-9:30am meeting this morning (he got a blue Best Buy bear, and a remote controlled car though) and is now sleeping most of the day. 12-hour days all week are rough. He works so hard so I can go to school.

Were these real yaks and snow lions, or just monks pretending to be yaks and snow lions?
