The evening began with a buffet consisting of chicken wings and other finger foods along with salads, popcorn, and soft drinks. The show began with one of our students Michelle Chen, an opera singer singing Silent Night along with student life coordinator Tony. There was a snafu with the music and instead of the track she had intended she had to sing along with the Elvis Presley version. Despite the fact that Elvis was never an opera singer, it was still a beautiful reminder of why we celebrate Christmas.
After that, I read Twas the Night before Christmas and performed a mini show of mentalism tricks, including free choice and Hen Fetsch's classic Mental Epic. The audience seemed astounded at these tricks. I was really worried because I haven't done a proper performance in months.
After the magic show with Ming, one of my students. As always my 3 predictions were correct
After a short break, the staff performed the 12 days of Christmas, an idea I had from seeing it done in high school at a Centrifuge camp. We made complete fools of ourselves but the students seemed to really enjoy it as we got a thunderous round of applause.

Bringing a bit of culture to the evening, Gloria performs a traditional Chinese dance.
Later, Helen, one of our teachers led the crowd in some crazy games and the night ended with more music performed by the EF choir. All in all it was a fun event with plenty time for socializing among students and staff.

Just in case you had bad things in mind, this sign makes it abundantly clear that there will be no drug taking, gambling, or soliciting and whoring of women in this club.
